Running Scared was a fairly good movie.It should be on that list.Snakes On A Plane was also kick ass! Clerks 2 is the best comedy of the year though I have not seen Borat yet.

I hope Martin wins an Oscar, seriously.
If 3-6 Mafia can do it, he sure as hell can, lmao.
That's the only joke Jon Stewart did that made me laugh really hard last year at the oscars :). But an oscar for Marty won't change anything for him. The guy already has a legacy, so another prize won't change a thing...

Better if he wins it, he should've won one long time ago, don't forget those are the same voters who repeatly snubbed Hitchcock and O'Toole.

Yeah, I agree. The movie is supposed to teach you to enjoy life and not to become emo.

On an acting basis. Forrest lights the screen on fire.

Well, seing that all the end of year critic awards are naming him best actor of the year, I have no problem believing that. But, does the movie stand only on Whitaker's acting or does it have an interesting story? I haven't seen it yet, but I'll watch it once it comes out on DVD.

On a story basis though, The Fountain is amazingly deep and inspired. Plus, the direction of photography, like any other Aronofsky movie, is just incredible.

Actually, O'Toole has another chance (probably his last too...) this year with Venus. I've only seen a trailer so far, since it comes out only in late January, but he seems pretty good in it.

I'de also put silent hill in their, being a fan of the video games and the movie, was incredible.


I hear it's amazing when the famous purple stuffed worm in flap-jaw space with the tuning fork does a raw blink on Hara-Kiri Rock. I need scissors! 61!

I don't think he'll win it to be honest with you, he should've won one long time ago.

Indeed, the award will probably go to Forrest Whittaker for The Last King of Scotland or Sacha Baron Cohan for Borat (fuck, I never tought that Borat would be up for an oscar one day...). Though, we can always hope. If Andrian Brody won for The Pianist, why not O'Toole.

I saw the trailer to that movie and it seemed hilarious. I watched a couple of episodes of the series on Showcase and I liked it. Might rent it on DVD soon...

I'm finally gonna post my list. I've been wanting to do it, but I kept deciding to wait once I heard of some more movies that are pretty hyped up. Well, I've seen them now, so here they are in chronological order, as you can tell by the numbering:

1. United 93
2. Deliver Us from Evil
3. Apocalypto
4. The Proposition
5. The Child
6. Children of Men
7. Pan's Labyrinth
8. Borat
9. Rocky Balboa
10. A Scanner Darkly

I wasn't sure about the foreign titles, so I just kept them in English. Also, some movies in which I voted a '9' on IMDb are mixed in with the ones that are an '8'. Sometimes, I'm not completely sure what to give a movie, and instead of deciding for a long time, I just pick one of the two.

Here are my honorable mentions in no particular order:

Hostel, The Descent, Hard Candy, An Inconvenient Truth, Little Miss Sunshine, The Queen, Flushed Away

Yeah, no explanations. I'm too lazy, and I'm worried they'll sound too banal. However, if you disagree with one, I'll be glad to debate. Maybe it'll be more interesting. :)
