Oliver Megaton-- really? So he's named after a weapon of mass destruction? "I'd like to introduce my sister-- Olivia Ballistic."

You probably should have waited until The Hobbit finished its run (ditto Les Miserables), because otherwise this quiz will be updated quite a lot

I had no idea some of these did this well. Sad not to see Argo or Lincoln on the list, both wonderful films.

I saw 6 of these and only remembered 2. Sad.

Why is this being done before the end of the year? Pretty bizarre timing. The Hobbit will be on this list by Dec 31st which makes this list redundant in about 9 days.

It's amazing how easily these multimillion dollar films are forgotten.

I never thought I'd see the day when Joss Whedon's name would top this list. So, so shiny.

Good quiz, but it would be better if it wasn't a minefield.

Why is Ice Age 4 on here? It sucked, it deserves no place on this list. Twilight I can understand because of the massive dumbass teenage girl fanbase but Ice Age? That sucked since the 2nd one came out.

Other than possibly one of the animated films on this list I doubt any of these will be nominated for Best Film, tho "The Hobbit" might change that.

Almost postive Wreck It Ralph would have made the list. Oh well. Good quiz.

This isn't final. Like last year's I got them to update it until all movies from the year had finished their run. The Hobbit will definitely feature eventually, and Wreck-It Ralph may also make it in if it grosses enough.

The quiz should accept "Marvel's The Avengers" for Avengers; that's the official name.

@AtomicIce: And if Oliver Megaton had kids, would they call his sister Auntie Ballistic?

The Hobbit is going to climb rapidly up this list between now and the new year.

Wait, wait, wait. A foreign language film did well worldwide? Did America finally take it's head out of it's own arse?

Well, it's mostly because Intouchables was a huge hit in France, and most other countries liked it too. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/movies/?id=intouchables.htm
