A lot of those have yet to be released in the UK. I've seen 22 and have tickets for another 3. It's kind of a rubbish list though, to be honest. Somewhere shouldn't be anywhere near a must-see list, nor should The Tourist, for example.
102 Different free films seen in 2010 plus 2 repeat viewings and a few tv show screenings... not too shabby. Thanks to everyone for their contributions here.

I hope James Franco gets a gong himself. I saw him in 127 Hours last night, and he is INCREDIBLE in it!

The Social Network has recently won another batch of awards at the National Film Critics Awards in the States. It's unstoppable bandwagon keeps rolling on

Some very strong competition this year. The Social Network has the potential to win the best pic oscar, and I think it will - but I'm hoping for Colin Firth to get best actor! He worked so hard in The King's Speech...
Go ahead, make my day - by visiting my blog: http://jacobthehobnob.wordpress.com/

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.

I certainly hope so! Is this the beginning of a new age of Colin Firth? Has he grown from British rom-coms or is he still going to do them?
