'09 Video Mashup

2009 produced a lot of big screen hits, most of which were a box office hit while some others were forgotten the next day they came out. Some of the highest grossing films include Avatar, the second Transformers movie, 2012, Up, and Twilight, as well as several others. I didn't really watch many movies in theatres during 2009, or 2010. Actually, I saw Zombieland in 2009 with my friends, but that was it. There were some movies that caught my attention and I watched over the Internet.

Rule Number Twenty Nine: The Buddy System

The films that I recognized from the Video Mashup were: Terminator Salvation, Watchmen, Star Trek, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, 2012, New Moon, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, The Dark Knight, Public Enemies, 500 Days of Summer, The Hurt Locker, Inglorious Basterds, G.I. Joe, The Taking of Pelham 123, Avatar, Zombieland, Law Abiding Citizen, X Men Origins, Armored, The Informant, and Invictus. Many of these films I haven't seen yet (all nighter's watching some of 'em just for the blog!), but I recognized them because of the actors who play them (like Matt Damon from 'The Informant', or Morgan Freeman from 'Invictus'), the action scenes that I see in the trailers or snips of the film (like the battle scenes from 'Transformers: RotF', or the explosion in 'The Hurt Locker'), and even some of the memorable or the funniest scenes that stick out in my head from the movies that I have watched (like when a main character shoots a zombie charging out of a store in 'Zombieland', or when Dr. Manhattan transforms in 'Watchmen').

How I loved this movie (Y)

A movie that I particularly liked from 2009 was '500 Days of Summer', because it was a movie that explored the concept of love in today's society, and it also explored what happens in a relationship, and then what happens after it. It showed one man and one woman's point of view about love, and how the two main characters ended up influencing each other's view about love and relationships as a result of their own romance. It was a movie that actually got me thinking about things like girls, love, relationships, and stuff like that, something that not many movies can do to their viewers.
