Best and Worst of 2007 Movies / Movies in 2008

I came across this extensive list of all the upcoming movies for 2008, and it looks like it's going to be a better year in movies than 2007.

But as I made the list of movies that came out this year, I second-guessed that statement. There were some personal instant classics this year. I guess I'll have to wait and see if this next year can out-do movies like 300, Juno, Hot Fuzz and Grindhouse.

Movies I Liked This Year: (Ranked in order of how much I liked it)
1) Juno


2) 300


3) Knocked Up


4) Grindhouse


5) Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix


6) Blades of Glory


7) The Number 23


8) Hot Fuzz


9) I Am Legend


10) The Bourne Ultimatum


BONUS: Across the Universe (A Must-See), Black Sheep, Transformers



(Ones I haven't seen, but know I'll like:) ( No order)
1) No Country For Old Men


2) Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street- I saw it finally and liked it. I will probably never see it again because it was too-musical-y for me. But I did like it.


3) Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story

4) The Golden Compass
5) Enchanted
6) Southland Tales
7) Lions for Lambs
8) The Kingdom- The hype was overrated. I liked it, but the big hype for it caused a slight disappointment for me when I saw it.
9) Hot Rod
10) Sicko


11) Fido
12) Once


Movies I Thought that were Ok: (Ranked in order of how much I liked them)
1) Ocean's Thirteen
2) Live Free Die Hard (Action-packed)
3) Hairspray (It's only ranked here b/c I would feel like less of a man if it was ranked with the
movies I liked)


4) License to Wed ( I secretly liked this one too)
5) The Simpson's Movie (Just a long Simpson's episode, but still very funny)


6) 1408 (Weird)
