Overall...a pretty bad year for movies. It can only get better for 2009.

Iron Man and the Dark Knight were pretty good. I recently saw Milk and Slumdog Millionaire - they were excellent !

I've heard nothing but good things about 'Milk'. Can't wait to see it.

For '08, I loved Forgetting Sarah Marshall, The Dark Knight, and Burn After Reading :)

I haven't seen anything that's been getting any sort of Oscar buzz, so I gotta get on that D:

i heard burn after reading was sooo good. i need to get my hands on that one.

I watched it the other night. I would add it to my "pleasant surprises" section. You can't go wrong with the Coen Brothers.

i liked forgetting sarah marshall. it was hillarious!

the dark knight was hands down the best of 08.

yeah they always have that quirky element that makes ou wonder...
