So, my list of movies to see in 2009 received quite a bit of traffic (and for some reason, continues to??), which took me by surprise.  I personally LOVE Top 10 lists, so it seemed only natural for me to continue with a list of not necessarily the biggest budget, highest grossing films of 2010, but some of the most interesting. Don’t get me wrong, I love the big budget, popcorn flicks as much as the next guy, but I can only take so much Harry Potter and Iron Man before I crave another Moon or Donnie Darko.

What I watched today might be my favorite movie of the year, and it was a trailer!  Before I get ahead of myself though, I need to wait until I see Moon (starring Sam Rockwell) this Wednesday night at one of only TWO theaters in all of Ontario showing it.

District 9, starring…. no one really, looks phenomenal and has a very inventive plot.  The trailer does a great job of explaining what to expect, getting you excited, while still keeping a lot secret.

The movie is directed by first-time director Neill Blomkamp who has based it on his own short film, Alive in Joburg.  Amazingly, it’s out very soon, August 14th to be exact.  Since it’s not a sequel or ribald comedy, I’m sure no one will see it, so I urge everyone to go!
