Top Movies of 2008?

[Todzilla]

Of those I've seen, I gotta go with:

1. Knocked Up - Absolutely hilarious and touching
2. Grindhouse, Death Proof - Wow. Scary, funny, corny, thrilling.
3. Zodiac - surprisingly good
4. American Gangster - Flawed, but you gotta love Denzel
5. Simpson's Movie - Not any greater than the TV show, but not any worse, either

Not a great year for film, IMHO

[webmastermarty]

I think you mean 2007 lol... Knocked Up and Hot Fuzz.

[EvanAgee]

I'd say, in no order

No Country for Old Men
Juno
Eastern Promises

[BlueHeaven]

I think you mean 2007 lol... Knocked Up and Hot Fuzz.

I was actually very disappointed with Hot Fuzz, thought is could have been a lot better, butI had high expectations from Shawn of the Dead.

[cearleywine]

I liked Shaun of the dead more, but the actual camera work was a little better in Hot Fuzz. Super Bad is one of the better comedies I've seen of recent. Man I need to watch some more movies, to busy playing music and working.

[GuitarMasterNot]

for 2007? I'd say, the Bourne Ultimatum

[iago]

Zodiac
Juno
There Will Be Blood

Death Proof was one of the stupidest movies I've ever seen....a waste of money....its right down in the hole with Eyes Wide Shut....

terrible list IMO. i thought knocked up was extreamly not funny. i laughed once durning the whole movie.Gindhouse was a disapointment, i had high expectations for that movie too. I havnt seen american gangster but i hate Denzel as an actor so thats probley why. Also i dont like that they are marketing it as a true story but the only thing thats right about the movie is the guys name.

2008 just started but i liked cloverfield. I am looking forward to star trek and Indian jones. Dark night should be great. 21 looks promising. Also there is another movie, I forget what its called, its about some people who kidnap a secret agents daughter...anywas 2008 looks like a good movie year compaired to 2007.

No one's mentioned I'm Not There. I was blown away for weeks... it really revolutionized my whole idea of film.
