Paramount (2) / Screen Gems

Farewell, 2011. It's been real. We had some laughs. We cried. We met some new people and spent time with old ones and saw plenty of action -- all of it at the movies. (On the screen, silly, not in the back row!)

But 2011 isn't over quite yet, so we're taking one final look back at some of the actors, characters and films that we enjoyed most this year. Vote for your favorites -- starting with 2011's hottest babe -- and be sure to come back every day and let us know what you'll remember most about the year in movies, from apes to Muppets, vampires to wizards, superheroes to bridesmaids.

Who Would You Swap Bodies With? 23 Stars Make Their Picks

In case you haven't heard, "The Change-Up" follows two friends -- played by Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman -- who accidentally swap bodies. Like the many body-swap comedies that came before it, hilarity ensues.

But what if this could happen in real life? Even if it were just for 24 hours, who's shoes would you want to fill?

We asked 23 celebrities -- from Emma Roberts and Jesse Eisenberg to John C. Reilly and Hilary Duff -- who they would want to be for a brief moment. Their responses were, well, rather interesting. One person even wanted to try being Charlie Sheen for a day!

Jason Bateman and Ryan Reynolds Swap Lives in Six 'The Change-Up' Clips

The Change-Up
Universal

Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman are putting the "odd" in "boddy switching." Yes, sometimes you have to alter spellings to make jokes work. (Or not.)

Director David Dobkin ("Wedding Crashers") is putting the two funnymen together for "The Change-Up," aka the raunchiest play on "Freaky Friday" ever devised. Mitch (Reynolds) and Dave (Bateman) are peeing in a wishing fountain when their plea to swap lives is miraculously granted. Irresponsible manchild Mitch has trouble dealing with the onslaught of Dave's responsibilities, while Dave enjoys all the freebie sex Mitch normally has coming to him.

Check out six clips from the summer comedy that's found a way to combine "Green Lantern" with "Horrible Bosses." Get More »

Why Is Jason Bateman So Underrated?

This summer, you'd be forgiven for wondering if Jason Bateman was in every single movie being released. In reality, he's only in two -- "Horrible Bosses" and "The Change-Up" -- but his affable face invades your consciousness to the extent that you'd think he had a cameo in "Captain America."

He should have had a cameo in "Captain America. In fact, he should have had one in "Cowboys and Aliens," too. Bateman should be in everything, and we're not just saying it because he was so great as Michael Bluth on "Arrested Development." He's a flexible and talented performer, capable of doing much more than just uttering glib one-liners and mimicking Ryan Reynolds. Get More »

Universal

The body switch comedy: a time-honored genre all to itself, that movie stars young and old have tackled over the years, albeit with varying success.

Jodie Foster and Barbara Harris in "Freaky Friday," Kirk Cameron and Dudley Moore in "Like Father Like Son," Fred Savage and Judge Reinhold in "Vice Versa" -- they all helped solidify the the "role switcheroo," a gimmick with a heart, in film history.

Now, it's Ryan Reynolds and Jason Bateman's turn. Get More »
