    As the year's end gets closer and closer, let's look back at some of the better films this year has produced.

    If you want some help remembering, here's a list of all the movies to have been released this year, courtesy of this source.


    There's been quite a few. What are yours?

    Wall-E for best picture! That was awesome. I also liked Dark Knight quite a lot.

    Step Brothers was good but I didn't think it to be Ferrel's greatest film.


    Without question, the Dark Knight is my favourite movie of the year(and of all time).
    My three favourite films of the year are:
    1. The Dark Knight
    2. The Wrestler
    3. Slumdog Millionaire
    Slumdog millionaire was written phenominally, it's definately worth seeing. As is The Wrestler. There haven't been any movie that has had me so invested in the character.


    Now that I think about it, there's been so many awesome movies this year.

    Lol there was a movie called zombie strippers.

    Um Dark Knight was amazing. If anyone says that James bond or Indiana Jones was a good movie bad things will happen to them. Step brothers was ok not Will Ferrels best. Wall e was good to.

    Wall-E and The Dark Knight.
    Most specifically the Dark Knight because of the character development, and Wall-E because of the message that it conveyed.

    It deals with how we waste the limited resources that the Earth has and how we're so glutonous in using them. I dont want to spoil the movie for you Linu, but why do you think they are in space now?

    Pineapple Express.

    Nothing is even close to touching it. It was ****ing awesome. Much better than those comic book/novel/endlessly long sequel/remake movies that kept popping up. (Batman, Twilight, Narnia, 007, The Day The Earth Stood Still, I'm watching you.)

    For a stoner movie, Pineapple Express, has incredibly good fight scenes.

    Some of the movies on that list came out in 2007, but their DVD release was in 2008... so I'll throw some of those into my list as well.

    1. Forgetting Sarah Marshall <- Probably my favorite comedy of all time. I never expected this movie to be so good. If you haven't seen it, go now.

    2. The Dark Knight <- Need I explain more?
    3. Pineapple Express <- Best stoner movie ever.
    4. Quarantine <- Best Zombie film I've ever seen.... very creepy.
    5. Iron Man <- I've been waiting for them to make this movie for years. Well done.
    6. Quantum of Solace <- Not as good as Casino Royale, but still kick ass nonetheless.
    7. Step Brothers <- Will Ferrell and John C. Riley are obnoxious and hilarious in this one.
    8. Tropic Thunder <- Robert Downey Jr. playing a black man... nuff' said.
    9. Cloverfield <- It made me fall in love with monster movies again.
    10. Religulous <- Reflects my views on religion fairly accurately.

    Pineapple Express, Wall-E, The Curios Case of Benjamin Button (I haven't seen it yet, but it deals with something you usually don't see and i'm sincerely excited to see it)

    All faves.

    Just watched valkyrie and i would recommend it. It was very good with the exception Tom Cruise always being on the screen. Very well done story was good even though the ending was obvious.

    Wow.
    I sadly only really loved Cloverfield and The Dark Knight.
    The rest were just mostly ok.

    Really!? That was so average. It was as if they were trying SO hard to make you laugh, but they couldn't do that so they went with poor shock laughs.

    These next two movies are simply amazing, definately worth playing to see.

    Don't let the trailers fool you. Slumdog Millionaire is far more than a simple love story.
