Welcome to the new year everyone. Like every big website across the entire internet, I decided to unzip my pants and whip out my take on the Best of/Worst of 2011 thing. Except in my case, it's movie trailers! So sit back, grab a soda, or a beer, or, if you're a grizzled survivalist who happens to like being up to date on movie trailers, some sterile urine.. and be prepared to click a lot of pictures so you can see if you agree with my list!
I'll just start off positive and slowly spiral off into inanity.. here goes!
Jackie Chan slapsticks his way through the fight while Tony Jaa jumps through hoops of razor wire and Cyril Rafael and David Belle jump off of things, into, and through breakable objects being held by Jason Statham, all the while a hail of bullets is peppering the entire area. The movie seems like it's just an excuse to do violent things in close quarters. And they do them well.. they do them very well.. like they're the Shoveler of doing action. It's kind of like they took the action of District B-13 and Equilibrium and just cut out anything that had to do with a deeper story. And.. well.. I'm okay with that.

Now it's time for some things that fell just shy of my favorite 5.. and some things that I feel just fell off of the Cliffs of Insanity and landed right in "What the Fuck Were They Thinking" Town.
First up:
Chronicle is essentially a found footage version of a Super Villain's origin story, starring 3 kids who don't know how to control their own maturity. ..or their God-like super powers. Clearly, they never read a Spider-Man comic. Of course, if they had, this would definitely be infinitely less entertaining. Check out my full reviewing here: Chronicle! (will open in new window)
So, the next section is the worst of:
