9 The King Of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters

Thanks for the title correction for me

I really did enjoy the hell out of this one; it's cute fun that really had me smiling

I'm glad to see some others made time for a documentary.

I completely agree. I also felt that last year was pretty weak overall, but it finished stronger than this year with movies like Casino Royale and Pan's Labyrinth.

2. Battlestar Galactica: Razor *
3. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
4. Across the Universe
5. Enchanted
6. The Simpsons Movie

Here is my placeholder. I'll post a link a to all the films I've seen this year, in order of best to worst of course.

Jon_Are · 12-29-2007, 09:05 PM

1. Once (The most authentic film I've ever seen)
2. No Country For Old Men (Pretty much what I expected; in other words, chilling but deep)
3. 3:10 To Yuma (Really opened my eyes to Russell Crowe's talents)
4. Juno (Ellen Page is irresistable)
5. Dan in Real Life (Hit a personal note with me)
6. Mr. Brooks (A rarity: a gimmick that worked)
7. Superbad (The opening dance montage alone would have been enough to place it)
8. Interview (Does Steve Buschemi ever disappoint?)
9. Sicko (Skewed, but not without merit)
10. A Mighty Heart (Very dramatic, even though the outcome is known)

Some that I haven't seen yet that may make the list (although I can't imagine anything bumping Once):

American Gangster
Atonement
I'm Not There
Michael Clayton
The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
