Hands down.
Followed closely by Speed Racer and Dark Knight.

Dark Knight was the best movie I saw.....but really, I didn't see that many.

I would follow Dark Knight with Wall-E and Speed Racer. Took my 7 year old to see Spped racer at the imax....it was very cool. I didn't understand all the bad press for it but then again I was a fan of the cartoon. Just watched Wall-E the other day and added Dark Knight to my Ipod.

First movie that comes to mind is "Dark Knight" but after buying it on dvd I can't even get though it a second time. I guess the "Heath Ledger death" factor wore off.
Plus Batman (Bale) talks like he's pinching a loaf.
"Stepbrothers" is one I can watch over and over so I'll go with that one. What can I say? I like crude humor.
"
i gotta get me some of them boats and hos"
Madagascar 2 (Escape to Africa) was great too.

I sooooo wanted to see SR at the IMAX, but the closest one for me is about an hour away and it nevere panned out. I still can't get over the use of color.
SR and Wall-E are beautiful to look at, but there was more in Wall-E that spoke to me. I think I am just a sucker for Wall-E being so phreakin' adorable!
Of course, maybe I'd change my fave if Shadow Dancing was in a film.

Step-Brothers did have me cracking up at times. Same with Forgetting Sarah Marshall.

Guess I am the weird one here. I could watch Dark Knight over and over and not be bored. Maybe it is because I have always been a Batman "freak" of sorts?

I think this Batman series has kicked the crap out of anyt of the other ones by far and I am hoping that Christian Bale can get it together and make a few more.

I thought that SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE was arguably The Best Film of 2008.
MILK and THE WRESTLER were very good as well.
In the category of FUNNY FILMS, I thought ROLE MODELS was Hilarious!
FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL is up there as well.

Glad to know. I want to see both of these.
