Duck-Billed Catechist Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 This thread has been moved from the random nonsense section to the random sense section. I don't remember if I saw any good new movies this year. Oh yeah, I liked Southland Tales. Heh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Reni Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 This thread has been moved from the random nonsense section to the random sense section. I don't remember if I saw any good new movies this year. Oh yeah, I liked Southland Tales. Heh. Honey, we never really go to or rent movies.....so, it's not that you don't remember. You didn't see any. (okay, that isn't 100% true - we did go to one movie - A Mighty Heart) However, Pod People was a highlight of the year on VHS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
summerteeth091 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Hot Fuzz was probably the best, but I really dug the Simpsons Movie and Knocked Up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 1. I'm Not There2. American Gangster3. Darjeeling Limited4. Superbad No order, and those are the movies I've actually seen... Apparently I'm Not There got completely shafted in the Globes...only nom was for Blanchett's Dylan. They just love to hate Haynes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kathyp Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Not feeling the love for Superbad or Knocked Up. I really liked the Joe Strummer documentary The Future is Unwritten. Um, I can't think of any other movies I saw in '07 that were actually released in '07. I'm waiting for the Simpsons movie to come out on DVD (Tuesday) and I want to see Juno and the Dylan bio.

nicburto Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Once, Hot Fuzz, No Country, Reign Over Me, Sicko - I haven't seen Juno, but I think I'll like it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cryptique Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 I'm really looking forward to There Will Be Blood. Sounds fantastic. I don't know if it'll be released where I am until early 2008, however (it has a limited release on December 26, probably so it can get in on this year's Oscars).

jhh4321 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Juno (saw a pre screening, it was excellent)Lives of Others (apparently '06 but I saw it on someone elses list and it blew me away so im adding it)Superbad (moderately accurate description of my life in high school)American Gangster There's a few i havent seen that i would really like to that im sure would be up there (darjeeling, no country, im not there, savages, atonement) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mpolak21 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 The Darjeeling Limited, No Country For Old Men, Juno, Once, American Gangster --Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beltmann Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Lives of Others (apparently '06 but I saw it on someone elses list and it blew me away so im adding it)Since release dates vary from region to region, I always go with when a movie first became available in my area. Lives of Others, for example, was a 2006 release, but wasn't released in Milwaukee until later in 2007, so it's eligible for my 2007 list. Such are the vagaries of film distribution. The same reasoning explains why I think Killer of Sheep qualifies for my 2007 considerations, even though it was first screened in 1977. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Azzurri Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 i saw the Assassination of Jesse James...the other day. excellent movie. the acting was incredible, especially Brad Pitt. i can see people complaining about the lengh and pace of it, but i found it pretty captivating. i would say that it is a close second behind No Country for Old Men for my favorite this year. the one movie that i am really looking forward to is There Will be Blood.

Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 The Bourne UlitmatumMichael ClaytonNo Country for Old MenKnocked UpStar Dust (I have to work around what I can talk the wife into going to see...she walked out of NCfOM) In an unrelated note...the NEW LINE CINEMA must be crapping in their pants at the poor box office numbers for THE GOLDEN COMPASS. Even the supposed bad press about the anti-religious theme hasn't generated any interest in this movie. Down-Town, Toodles, All the young girls love...and I saw it last night. What a mess that movie was. Don't think we'll see parts II an III of this mess of a series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Some I really enjoyed - THERE WILL BE BLOOD You've seen this already? The New Yorker had a stunning review of it ... and they hate everything -- for praise to be so liberally heaped upon a film is quite odd in those pages. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Reni Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I would like to see There Will Be Blood - though Graham is apprehensive. He says he doesn't know if he can stomach another film with a grimacing Daniel Day Lewis. We saw a trailer for The Diving Bell and the Butterfly - it made me feel itchy.
