Ravenbomb Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 1: The Departed 2: Children of Men 3: The Prestige 4: The Fountain 5: Akeelah and the Bee 6: Hard Candy 7: Blood Diamond 8: The Notorious Bettie Page 9: Clerks II 10: Thank You For Smoking There's a few movies like Flags of Our Fathers that I haven't seen yet that will probably make the list, but as it stands, this is it.
bob_barron Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 I want to make my top 10 but there's still 4-5 movies I have to see
Youth N Asia Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 1- The Departed 2- Snakes on a Plane 3- Hostel 4- Crank 5- V For Vendetta 6- Clerks 2 7- Little Miss Sunshine 8- Pirates 2 9- Running Scared 10- Inside Man
Edwin MacPhisto Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Children of Men and The Departed are my two faves, each on a level well above anything else I saw. The Descent was fantastic too. Hostel was hilarious and I've come to enjoy seeing it whenever I get the chance. Borat was also hilarious, but was supposed to be, so kudos on that. I liked Hard Candy an awful lot, but I've gone a little soft on it after thinking about how I would have preferred it to be a bit more ambiguous. I also enjoyed the hell out of The Prestige, which was pretty straightforward but still worked superbly for what it was.
bob_barron Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Off the top of my head (I don't have my list in front of me) Departed Little Miss Sunshine Borat United 93 Rocky Balboa Casino Royale Inside Man Little Children Running Scared Babel Still have to see: Good Shepard, Letters from Iwo Jima, Children of Men, The Queen, Pan's Labyrinth to have a true top 10 list.
Ravenbomb Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Posted January 12, 2007 Wow... No Borat??!?! There's a few movies like Flags of Our Fathers and Thank You For Smoking that I haven't seen yet that will probably make the list, but as it stands, this is it. The only movies I've seen that aren't on the list are Superman Returns and X-men 3
Epic Reine Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 1. The Departed 2. The Prestige 3. Children Of Men 4. The Fountain 5. Hard Candy 6. Little Miss Sunshine 7. Inside Man 8. V For Vendetta 9. Borat 10. A Scanner Darkly
Lord of The Curry Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Casino Royale Borat The Proposition Little Miss Sunshine Superman Returns Children of Men (Far and away the #1 pick) Thank You For Smoking Running Scared Deep Blue Slither
buffybeast Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Did someone nominate "Slither" as a top movie of 2006? WTF? A movie about killer slugs from outer space shouldn't be in anyone's top 10 list.
bob_barron Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Even though I have it relatively low on my list, good to see SLiTHER getting some love. I didn't like the horror aspects of the film, but it was very funny. buffybeast- Did you see SLiTHER? If not, then you really have no comment. The plot of SLiTHER was irrelevant to the movie. I have Thank You For Smoking in the 20s in my rankings, I thought it was funny but too smug for its own good. Curry- What's Deep Blue?

I didn't like the horror aspects of the film, but it was very funny. buffybeast- Did you see SLiTHER? If not, then you really have no comment. The plot of SLiTHER was irrelevant to the movie. Yes, I did see Slither. Killer slugs from a meteor invade a Southern hick town during the Deer Hunting festivites. If this is the same movie, then yes I saw it. It wasn't scary or funny to me. Just ridiculous.
Youth N Asia Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 I was bored with Slither, there wasn't enough comedy to make me laugh or enough horror to freak me out. And I really wanted to like it too. I didn't love Borat like everyone else, it gave me some laughs, but no major ones. I REALLY wanted to see Children of Men, and The Prestige...just haven't been able to yet
Man Who Sold The World Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 1. The Departed 2. Children Of Men 3. Idlewild 4. Stranger Than Fiction 5. Running Scared 6. Brick 7. The Descent 8. Casino Royale 9. Thank You For Smoking 10. The Pursuit Of Happyness Haven't seen The Fountain, Hard Candy, Scanner Darkly or Borat yet.
Wyld Cannon Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 10. Strangers with Candy 9. Nacho Libre 8. An Inconvenient Truth 7. V For Vendetta 6. Thank You For Smoking 5. Mission Impossible: III 4. Little Miss Sunshine 3. Talladega Nights 2. Children of Men 1. A Scanner Darkly I missed alot of cool stuff that would more than likely knock stuff off this list though, such as Brick, The Science of Sleep, Borat, The Departed, Miami Vice . . .
Lord of The Curry Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Fuck, Slither goes off the list and Miami Vice goes on it. Barron- Deep Blue is just your basic, run-of-the-mill oceanic documentary but it's got some of the most beautiful shots I've ever seen in film in it. And Pierce Brosnan narrates it.
Ravenbomb Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Posted January 12, 2007 I was possibly going to take my g/f to see Children of Men tonight, but we're supposed to get freezing rain. Stupid weather...
