This is tough, as I saw several movies that I liked, although they’re all very different.

Even though I didn’t see it until this weekend, I think I’m going to have to go with Tangled.

I love Disney movies. I love musicals. I’ve been lamenting the fact that Disney went so long without making a musical. So, I wondered, why Disney took such great pains to NOT LET ANYONE KNOW THIS WAS A MUSICAL. (with music by Alan Menken, no less…who also wrote the music for The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin among others)

At any rate, Tangled was fantastic. I loved it, and it will soon find a place among my favorites.

Last year was a great year for animated features…I also saw Toy Story 3 (sob!) and How to Train Your Dragon.

For non-animated, well, I haven’t seen a lot of the big ones, but I did see (and very much enjoy) The Social Network. Great writing, great performances, and a compelling story out of something that didn’t seem like it could make for such a compelling story. I also enjoyed The Kids Are All Right.

What were your favorites, and what do I need to see?

We haven't seen Tangled yet but want to go soon. Loved "Dispicable Me" and laughed our heads off at that one and Avatar was right up there. Went to see Tron recently and it was OK and the effects were cool but I would not rate it high. Also went to see Gunless this year which is a Canadian western movie which was lots of fun and the lead character is Paul Gross who was famous for portraying a mountie and who Sue has a serious crush on :-\ Oh and yes we enjoyed "Burlesque".
