Just got done watching The Wolverine and thought it was lame so I thought I'd ask if you guys can make any recommendations for great movies that were released this year.

Thanks!

    Superman was excellent (Man of Steel), the audio on Pacific Rim was very good story line was ok, and I also liked Star Trek-Into the Darkness.

    This was a really good movie. I really didn't want to enjoy it but it won me over pretty convincingly.

    Great Gatsby was fantastic (comparisons to the book are unfair). Many gripe about the modern music but it didn't bother me as much as other people.

    Here's a pretty inclusive list

    I am interested in The Wolf on Wall Street, Gravity, Captain Phillips, The Counselor, Rush, Dallas Buyers Club, and maybe a few others. We don't get to watch a lot of movies so I'll likely forget about most of these haha.

    If you like words like epic and flashback, flash forward, and tom hanks, "Cloud Atlas" might be worth a watch

    Avengers are awesome, great story and really well done movie. One of if not the best SuperHero Movies I have ever seen.
    Man of Steel was really good, I have watched it 3 times now and the more I watch it, the more I like it.

    I want to see The Wolverine but from the previews I can kinda feel how it could be called lame.

    My personal quest is to save to world of bad audio, one thread at a time.

    I can't believe some of these movies were actually released in 2013. It seems like they were much longer ago. Sure enough, I checked on Zero Dark Thirty and it released in early January.

    I'll second the recommendation for Pacific Rim. Great movie? No. Definitely fun and definitely a nice workout for the screen and the audio.

    Avengers, Thor 2, Superman, Star Trek and I'm sure the Hobbit will be great when it is released!
