  Superbad

  Pretty big drop-off from the year before but still a solid lineup.

  No Country For Old Men

  My favorite from the list I guess.
  
  REAL favorites from the collarge: Lars & The Real Girl, Rataoille, Hot Fuzz.
  
  
  28 Weeks Later was a huge disappointed, shouldn't have been made because 28 Days Later could not be improved upon.
  
  Sunshine has come up many tims on my favorite movie pod, mostly as a great movie with a terrible ending. On the flip, The Mist gets called a so-so movie with an amazing ending. Haven't seen, loved the short story.

  There Will Be Blood

  Forgive me @PostGameOrangeSlices . In almost any other year, you'd have my vote.
  
  But I was born in the Southern California oil fields.

  No Country For Old Men

  I've seen all but Atonement and American Gangster.
  
  No Country and There Will Be Blood are both great flicks and probably in my tops of all tim.

  The Bourne Ultimatum

  Great movies this year, but I can watch Bourne movies over and over.

  F.O. Row Peter Puffer, you left off...

  Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix gets the win!
  
  Also special shout outs to:
  
  Shooter
  
  
  
  
  Hot Fuzz
  
  
  
  
  Transformers aka Peak Megan Fox
  
  
  
  Love the Bourne movies as well as superbad. I too have a problem drawing dicks.

  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.

  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.
