Being fair, I still have to see four of the movies you listed, but if you haven't seen Winnie the Pooh yet, do that. Descendants is amiable enough, but somewhat of a letdown from Alexander Payne.

The Artist
The Descendants
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
War Horse
We Bought A Zoo


EDIT: Or just stay home and watch Winnie the Pooh.
Haven't seen any of those but I'd most like to see a write-up of Tinker Tailor.

Reckon it's between Tinker Tailor and Pooh then.

Thinking of avoiding potential Oscar films that I have little interest in (ie. The Artist, War Horse, and Descendants) in hopes that I have the time to do the AMC thing where they just show all of the Best Picture nominees the weekend before the Oscars. Or not, it really depends on my free time/how much is spent reading/gaming/writing/prepping for class.

I will see We Bought A Zoo at some point, since it's likely just ahead of Pooh in terms of the ones I most want to see. Oddly interested in Tinker Tailor despite some reactions I have heard, my tepid response to trailers, and distaste for at least one of the top billed actors.

Pooh needs the attention that those movies are already getting.

We'll see. I went with neither because I got caught up running around Constantinople! Just tGwtDT tonight.

If you already own the Coen Brothers collection, then I'd vote for at least the Scorsese collection. If you don't own the Coen collection, then...buy that.

I would, except it contains 3 Godfathers.

The Artist or Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy?
