    There Will Be Blood

    I'm not even going to vote on this year. The Golden Compass was so disappointing that it broke me for movie watching.

    ATBSJBS, No Country For Old Men put me to sleep. To me, Big Lebowski (GOAT), Intolerable Cruelty, Raising Arizona, Burn After Reading: That's peak Cohen Brothers. When they get slow, I'm out.

    And Darjeeling Limited is my least favorite Wes Anderson movie, full stop. Almost left the theater.

    A lot of good movies this year, nothing I'd call great. The Superbad dick drawing scene is one of the greatest things ever. Loved Hot Rod (it's actually my nickname at work). Blades of Glory also low key great for comedy. My vote this year is just "the comedies."

    Derjeeling Limited is OK, but nowhere on the same level as Bottle Rocket, Rushmore or Tenenbaums.

    Strong disagree with No Country. It never lost my attention once.

    Superbad
    My trusted assistant told me she was taking a different position in the company and leaving. Totally crushed. Was looking for tall buildings from which to jump.

    Left work and wandered over to the theater by myself and bought a ticket.

    Superbad saved my life.

    Vote by default since it's the only one I've seen.

    The upside of 2007 is that Emma Stone was over age 18.

    Chinteresting. I was not suspecting Superbad to challenge for the title this year.

    This is the first time that I haven't seen a single movie on the list. I have 3:10 to Yuma on my watch list but never seem to get around to it. I'll watch that and No Country soon and report back.
