    The Departed
    A lot of good choices. Blood Diamond is also a great movie.

    The Prestige
    This year blows 1983 out of the water.

    The Prestige is one of the best movies ever on the first watch, I'll fight anybody about this. It just isn't the same once you've seen the reveal. But incredible performance's by Bale and Jackman (and absolute peak Scarjo).

    Borat combined one of the greatest concepts and execution ever accomplished. It probably deserved my vote.

    300 was amazing. Casino Royale was incredible. Blood Diamond was very good as RoadDawg noted. Idiocracy is better now than it was then, full blown cult classic.

    Loaded year.

    Obvious fix was obvious but if you haven't seen the film you may not understand it when written that way

    Ourº recent rewatch delivered. I remembered the end but little else. The beard remembered nothing. Great movie. I think I agree on you're peak ScarJo observation.

    The Prestige
    Holy shit I've never seen the Departed but if it's legitimately a worthy choice as best movie of 2006 it goes to the top of my must watch list.

    The Prestige

    My brain says Departed, but my heart votes Borat. Doubtful that another film has fully entered my daily lexicon like Borat. I think the first time I had a beer with @PurpleBaze I spoke only in Borat voice.


    I'm guessing the discussion was based on hatred for The Jews.

    Sad really.



    FWIW my hebrew friends LITERALLY almost died laughing at this scene.
