Top Ten Favorite Movies of 2012

Now it's time to wrap up this year with my Top Ten Favorite Movies of 2012! 2012 has been an AWESOME year for movies, in my opinion, but unfortunately I missed a lot of the big name films this year - The Dark Knight Rises, The Cabin in the Woods, Prometheus, Brave, Magic Mike, Argo, Seven Psychopaths, The Master, I COULD GO ON. Suffice it to say, this list is by no means a "Best of 2012" list. It's just my favorite movies that I saw. Also, it's not entirely my fault that I missed those movie. It's been a big year for me! I did graduate from high school and start going to college, after all. I'm still going to try to see as many Oscar nominees as I can before the Oscars, so I can let you guys know my guesses and things.

Anyway, let's kick off the list by looking at some runners-up. Here are the five Honorable Mentions who just missed the cut:

1. The Secret World of Arrietty
2. Lola Versus
3. Your Sister's Sister
4. Wreck-It Ralph
5. The Avengers

Now, here are my Top Ten Favorite Movies of 2012!  If I've written a review of the movie already, I'm just going to link to that because I... am really lazy.  But I will write out a little mini review of any movies I saw before I started this blog.
