I need to watch there will be blood properly; I only watched it on quite a shoddy pirate in china and the last 20 minutes it fucked up.
Film Of The Year
- Thread starter El Jefe
- Start date
I think it's a bit of a marmite film...

I thought it was OK, it was a nice idea that wasn't executed that well. The set-up took far too long - the characters were too banal to need THAT much backstory
Yeah I really didn't care about the characters, that love story was totally unconvincing. They were just underdeveloped despite taking ages to develop them iyswim.
But the worst bit was when it turned out the thing that was causing all the trouble was some big weird monster dinasour with loads of baby dinasours. It stopped being scary after that.
Oh and they added some kind of zombie element into it aswell when that girl got bitten or scratched or whatever.
Stupid.
the final scene is one of the most inspired and unexpected and crazy I've ever seen, and it actually reminded me of Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder in the Producers - that kind of manic hysteria and absurdity.
Nah, not me man - I have been workin out west today, but in the filthy district line direction... Must've been some other jaded, pissed off, present laden humbug..
Good poll. But I think Batman out of those top 5 would be my number one. I think Day Lewis hammed it up just a wee bit too much in There will be blood. Heath Ledger was just perfect. That little licking, snake like thing. Filth.

BTW Into the Wild and the Counterfeiters, good as they were, were both 2007 films.
I watched it on Special Offers on telly the other week cos it was going for a penny. I didn't even realise it was released this year! Did like it though, lots. Absolutely loved the preacher

WHOOO HOOOO !!!

oh dear, that film was one of the most over hyped films this year, that when my mate (haha, unlucky mate) bought it and we watched it, we took it stright back and he got his money back.

Hawking's Angry Eyebrow
I'd have been torn between Dark Knight and NCFOM - I was underwhelmed by DK at the cinema, but having recently bought it on Bluray, and being able to really savour HLs performance it's tops!
Was Renaissance out this year or 2007? Aces film, and anyone who's seen Waltz With Bashir will like it...

It's not very open, is it? How do we know you didn't nobble the results?
oh not this shit again.
The same way you don't know that bluestreak didn't nobble the results in the annual album of the year poll he's been running for years.
If you really care, I can email you a spreadsheet containing all 21 sets of nominations and the points awarded.
Would that help?

29 I've Loved You So Long
Well i voted for it somewhere in my top five. Quite why it is way down the list compared with 'Sex & the city' i've no idea, who voted for that?
bluestreak

Cloverfield was 2008? I'm sure I downloaded it for Christmas viewing last year.

Also, I would have voted Batman Returns because it's the only film I cared about enough to go and see at the cinema and the only one of them i've seen apart from Iron Man which was toss and Cloverfield which I thought was last year. So in the spirit of not liking one vote nominations in my poll, I didn't vote.
What I will do now is use this collection as a guide to my future downloading.

My god, does that mean I have only seen one film this year from this year (and that was on DVD)

I'm surprised more people haven't seen Persepolis. Other than that the list is predictable, but that's no bad thing. I can't remember what I voted now, but think the list pretty well reflects my opinions.
