Movie meme

Image from the last Deus swap meet, by me.

Today a meme from @katejf.

  2. Alice in Wonderland ($334.2M)
  3. Iron Man 2 ($312.1M)
  4. Eclipse ($300.5M) seen (over-rated)
  5. Inception ($292.5M) not seen yet, but I will, I um, seem to have um, 'acquired' a copy on my 'puter
  6. Deathly Hallows Part 1 ($259.2M)
  7. Despicable Me ($250.3.7M)
  8. Shrek Forever After ($238.4M)
  9. How to Train Your Dragon ($217.6M)
  10. The Karate Kid ($176.6M)
  11. Clash of the Titans ($163.2M)
  12. Grown Ups ($162M)
  13. Megamind ($140.6M)
  14. The Last Airbender ($131.6M)
  15. Shutter Island ($128M)
  16. The Other Guys ($119.2M)
  17. Salt ($118.3M)
  18. Tangled ($117.2M)
  19. Jackass 3-D ($116.8M)
  20. Valentine’s Day ($110.5M)
  21. Robin Hood ($105.3M) seen, on an aircraft (OK but they tried to make the story too historically relevant)
  22. The Expendables ($103.1M)
  23. Date Night ($98.7M)
  24. Due Date ($95.4M)
  25. Sex and the City 2 ($95.3M) I would struggle to think of a worse way to waste my time than seeing this

I have seen only two and may only see another couple. How many have you seen?

Of those I have not seen, the ones I want to are: not on this awfullist. And can I just add that after seeing Hugh Jackman's annoying Lipton Ice tea ads that I probably won't ever want to see another movie with him in it. They may well be worse than the whole McOprah "tourism" to MacCafe campaign.

Thanks again Kate.

I've seen 3 - most of the films in the list I've got no desire to watch:
Toy Story 3 - Brilliant (but I'm a sucker for these films)
Alice in Wonderland - Normally love Tim Burton films, but this was garbage & so over rated. Clever work with computers can't save a basic plot. Afraid that Tim Burton & Johnny Depp have now stereotyped themselves forever.
Sex in the city 2 - The second worst film I've ever seen (Mama Mia being the worst). An exercise in marketing rather than film making.
