5. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug– A bit long, but I was once again transported to Middle Earth.
4. Thor: The Dark World –Hemsworth and Hiddleson once again make every scene they’re in fun to watch. Everybody else just helps move things along. Fun movie, but a bit too jokey and a bit too “Star Wars.
3. The Wolverine– After a second viewing, I enjoyed it much more. Classic Wolverine storyline, but you need to by the extended cut if you want to see more ninjas cut extensively by Wolverine.
2. This Is the End-This was hilarious. The celebrity self-parodies and over-the-top scenarios blended almost perfectly.
1. Star Trek Into Darkness– A lot of people hated this one, but this big Trekkie was very happy with this it.Everything seemed to really feel like Trek. A few too many homages to “Wrath of Khan.”
