Best known for directing 1973s The Exorcist, Friedkin has also been behind The French Connection, Cruising and 2006s Bug. He also has a habit for courting controversy with his films, previously angering the church and that gay community with his movies. And things haven’t changed much, with Killer Joe happily retaining an NC-17 rating in the states for ‘graphic disturbing content involving violence and sexuality, and a scene of brutality.’"

I know that seems to be the case almost every year, but 2012 felt particularly special, with films from greats like Ridley Scott, Paul Thomas Anderson and Quentin Tarantino. It was hard breaking it down to just a short list of films, but against all of the odds I’ve managed to do just that. Well, kind of. Continue reading to see my personal favorite films of 2012."
there are a lot of great movies in 2012, the list was really good but if i were to make a top 12 list i will definitely include skyfall and the avengers.

Last week before Christmas and only two more weeks of Blu-ray releases in 2012. This week is filled with late summer and early fall new releases including the third film starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Clint Eastwood’s baseball flick, a girly singing comedy, an unnecessary sci-fi remake, wimpy kid diary, and another frighteningly bad (yet fun) zombie crapfest. On the catalog release front things are bit slower, but if you know someone that’s a fan of karate fighting turtles, classic ghost ships, or space age teen adventures you might be able to find a last minute Christmas gift.
