Best Last Line: “I used to encourage everyone I knew to make art. I don’t do that so much anymore.” - Exit Through The Gift Shop “Mama, when I’m a cat, will I be able to eat Cat Munchies?” - Wild Grass. In one of the great non-sequitur endings of this or any year, we leave our romantic leads behind just as a zipper malfunction has caused the plane they’re in the crash (don’t ask). We then enter a random home and push in on a little girl we’ve never seen before, who says the above line. Roll credits. As the kids say, WTF? Best Use Of The Movie’s Title In Dialogue: “It must be some kind of… Hot Tub Time Machine.” - Hot Tub Time Machine Best Moments: Babies - Mari, the Japanese baby, throws the world’s greatest tantrum when she can’t figure out how to work a toy. Dogtooth - The two daughters’ odd choreographed dancing takes an odder turn when the sexually liberated older sister breaks free from the established steps and engages in a bizarre, funny, and increasingly frenzied solo performance. Easy A - Olive Pendergrass gets Natasha Bedingfield’s “Pocketful of Sunshine” stuck in her head all weekend. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 – A stylish shadow puppet sequence tells the story of the Deathly Hallows. How to Train Your Dragon – Toothless the dragon allows Hiccup to touch his snout for the first time. Monsters - Two menacing squid-like aliens engage in a courtship ritual and have weirdly beautiful sex while floating over an abandoned gas station. Never Let Me Go - Tommy lets out a chilling, cathartic scream. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World - Scott Pilgrim summons a green-eyed monster to battle deadly twin dragons. The Social Network – The Winklevoss twins race the Henley Royal Regatta to the strains of a Trent Reznor take on “In The Hall Of The Mountain King.” Toy Story 3 - Andy passes along his toys to the grateful Bonnie and the audience turns into a blubbery mess.
