Here’s everything you might have missed in the second half of December, along with all my end-of-the-year stuff.
END-OF-THE-YEAR STUFF:
The Best and Worst Movies of 2011. Plus miscellaneous data.
Eric’s Media Inventory. What I watched and read in 2011.
All the wide releases of 2011. There were 141 of them. How many did you see? (Note: question is rhetorical.)
2011 film titles: a dramatic reading. On a whim, I composed this playlet in which the dialogue is composed entirely of 2011 movie titles.
My best film-related articles from 2011. These are the Film.com articles that I liked the most.
NEW MOVIE REVIEWS:
“War Horse” (C)
“We Bought a Zoo” (C+)
“The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo” (C+)
“The Adventures of Tintin” (B-)

MOVIE COLUMNS:
Eric’s Bad Movies: “Standing Ovation” (2010). The most astounding thing about this train wreck is that it actually played in 600 theaters in the summer of 2010. This is why we need to have regulations. [Film.com]
Re-Views: “The Passion of the Christ” (2004). Not nearly as funny as I remembered it. [Film.com]
The Next 35 “Alvin and the Chipmunks” Movie Sequel Titles. I love it when Laremy the editor gives me silly topics like this. [Film.com]

MY OTHER STUFF:
Snide Remarks: “Joseph’s Blog: The Carin’ Carpenter” — An anecdote about poor hospitality
Movie B.S. with Bayer and Snider: The Dec. 23 show had reviews of “We Bought a Zoo,” “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” “The Adventures of Tintin,” and “War Horse,” and the Dec. 30 episode is our 2011 top 10 lists and such. [MovieBS] or [iTunes]
