Jen has exceedingly good taste, but we tend to differ most in our preference in movies. Her list is solid, but I think my top for 2012 would go:
1. *The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey*[^f5839]
2. *Avengers*
3. *Brave*
4. *Skyfall*
5. *The Dark Knight: Rises*
6. *Safety Not Guaranteed.*
[^f5839]: Part of why *The Hobbit* and *The Dark Knight Rises* are ranked so highly is their relation to some of my favorite moves of all time. If was discounting that nostalgia, I might have *Avengers* in the top spot.
