Echoing Eddie with Big Hero 6. So damn good. I'm really curious as to which movie takes home the Oscar for Best Animated. There's LEGO, BH6, and How to Train Your Dragon 2 that will probably be the main contenders (if they all get nominated of course). I can't say anything for The Boxtrolls or The Book of Life as I didn't catch them in theaters. Feast is already on the shortlist for Animated Shorts, along with Glen Keane's Duet.

Paperman won for Best Animated Short which was fantastic to see, but I know a lot of people were angry that Get A Horse lost. I need to watch the other shorts. I've heard good things about The Dam Keeper.

The Guest - The all around best action movie of the year, with great performances, music (an amazing synth soundtrack), comedy, pacing. Imagine a more fun, less self-serious version of Drive, and you get the picture. A total throwback to classic John Carpenter and Terminator-era James Cameron. It hits blu-ray in January, and you are seriously missing out if you don't give this one a watch.

The Raid 2 - in case you missed it, at a minimum it's a must-watch to see a master-class in action film-making, there are sequences that are better than anything I've ever seen done in the genre, and will ruin all other action movies for you. As an actual movie, it doesn't hold together unfortunately, but the highs are so damn good.

Interstellar - Seriously, it's still playing in IMAX, go see it the way it's meant to be seen. I'm baffled at some people's indifference to this movie. It's beautiful, it's ambitious, it's pro-science. Don't wait for video.

I don't think Under the Skin is a masterpiece, but it is an extremely visceral experience and really worth watching (with a good sound system). The beach scene still fucks me up. I think it drops the ball with a half-assed ending that it doesn't earn. With a better last act it could've been an all time great film.

That being said, there's nothing like it getting made these days, so it's a massive breath of fresh air.
