Cloverfield and Get Smart need to be in the "worst" group, IMO replaced by Gran Torino and Benjamine Button. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

<p><img src="http://sitelife.space.com/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif" border="0" alt="Cool" title="Cool" />Hmmm Top and Worst 5 of 2008 eh? I still have a number that I haven't seen that could make the list but from the movies that I've see so far:</p><p>&nbsp;Top</p><p>5. Pineapple Express</p><p>4.&nbsp;The Dark Knight</p><p>3. Iron Man</p><p>2. Son of Rambow</p><p>1. Young @ Heart</p><p>However living in a small town most of the award contenders have not come here to I haven't had the chance to watch them. Once I get a chance I'm sure that above list will change significantly. For anyone that hasn't seen Young @ Heart I highly recommend it. It is a documentary about the Young@Heart choir, a seniors choir based in Massachusetts. My GF convinced me to watch it and it was wonderful.</p><p>Worst</p><p>3. Vantage Point (had the potential to be very good just didn't quite deliver)</p><p>2. 21</p><p>1. Get Smart (only movie this year I was unable to sit all the way through)</p><p>&nbsp;Hmmmm as I thought about the year it really wasn't that good. Although there are a number of movies I'm looking forward to seeing, Doubt, Synecdoche, NY, Gran Torino, Rachael Getting Married, Milk, so still might be able to&nbsp;classify it a good year&nbsp;once I've actually had the chance to see those movies.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;<img src="http://sitelife.space.com/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif" border="0" alt="Cool" title="Cool" /></p> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
