[Vlad!]

I'm not quite ready to do my own list yet (I'm hoping to find the time to see Tintin before it leaves theaters), but I figured I'd at least get the ball rolling by starting the thread...

As always, the ratings are nearly arbitrary, entirely inconsistent, likely inaccurate, and void where prohibited. No cash value. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery for two hours after use.

I was wondering why we didn't start this thread a year ago. Fortunately we have the "Last Movie You Saw" thread, so I can go back through and enumerate them all. This is just the stuff released in 2011; I've dusted off my old 2010 journal to add some stuff that was released in '10 that I finally got around to watching in '11.

And the Winners Are:
1. Bridesmaids A
2. Source Code A-
3. Cars 2 B+
4. The Descendants B+
5. The Help B+
6. Hugo B+
7. Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol B+
8. X-Men: First Class B
9. Burn Notice: The Fall of Sam Axe B
10. Kung Fu Panda 2 B

"Winning" in the Charlie Sheen Sense:
11. Puss in Boots B-
12. Super 8 B-
13. Arthur B-
14. Thor B-
