JR Late Night Blogs publishes a yearly list on the films that defined the entire year. As the year 2013 comes to a close, it is a great time for JR to present his latest list on the Top 10 Movies that rocked the entire year. Movies which premiered from 01 January 2013 to 20 December 2013 that earned a huge box office and a huge internet fan base were the ones chosen by JR in this year's list. JR ranked them by his own preference. For this year, JR reduced the number of films to be ranked to 10 for him to give special attention to why he chose each film. This year, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire earned the top spot for Movie of the Year being one of the best book adaptations to hit our movie screens. Popular movie franchises also hit this year's list - Iron Man and Fast & Furious. Only one animated film made this year's list. Safe Haven, a movie which earned a fan base through social media, also entered as the only romance film. Gravity, JR's pick for an Oscar Best Picture, made the list at the top 3.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire easily nabs the title Movie of the Year for its terrific adaptation of the sequel to a popular and beloved book series. The movie adaptation was superb putting into realism those fictional and futuristic scenes presented by the book. From the Victor's Tour of Katniss and Peeta to the Arena Battle in the 75th Hunger Games, you can only see very minimal changes from the book. The movie presented all situations in the book as authentic and unbiased as possible. Before the movie even premiered, expectations were placed a notch higher considering that it gambled to be shown to the public a year and a half later from the release of the first film. With that long wait, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire proved to be better than any sequel of the Harry Potter and Twilight movie franchise combined. The movie raised the bar for any book adaptation in the future, fully placing it to realism with minimal or no change at all. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire places Katnis Everdeen to the 75th anniversary of the Hunger Games, otherwise known as the 3rd Quarter Quell. It is her second time to battle blood and sweat with previous victors from the Capitol's annual grueling punishment as it is their plan to pose a threat to all other districts waging war with them. Before you watch the two-part finale of the movie franchise, engage yourself in the Catching Fire of the Hunger Games. Just like Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (video game) outshined its predecessor and successor, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire may be the best of the movie franchise.
