Now my Top 10 of da year and shiii, with Oscar picks
10.Charlie Wilson's War
9. Superbad
8. 3:10 to Yuma
7. Juno
6. Michael Clayton
5. There Will Be Blood
4. The Orphanage
3. Atonement
2. Gone Baby Gone
1. No Country for Old Men
Those of you who care enough to read my facebook reviews will see that a movie i gave 4 stars (Michael Clayton) is in front of two movies i gave 4.5 stars to. (3:10 and Superbad). This is because the two did great things to the genre they represented (especially 3:10) but Michael was an all around better movie, except it didn't do anything new really.
Oscar picks (based on the actual nominees that were nominated, and who i would pick if I were in the Acadamey, which im not, because I need to age 90 more years before im eligiable.)These are only ones where I have seen most of the nominees or I know/have seen enough to determine crap.
