Movie Schmovie

2011 was an amazing year for film, both critically and commercially, and we’re walking you through the aces in the deck. These are our Top 10 films of 2011.

Yes, that “Ketchup” – of the hot dog, french fries and (apparently) ramen variety. Steve and Ronald “Ketchup” on the films they saw towards the end of 2011. Films worthy enough to mention, but maybe not so worthy of making their best of 2011 lists.

Running out of TP? Drinking sour milk? Wearing socks in the bathroom and stepping in a puddle? All horrible things, but nothing compared to the worst films of 2011. Join us as we navigate this impressive pile of poo while trying to keep our shoes clean.
