I read an article about Best Movies Of 2008...

Kung Fu Panda, Priceless, Iron Man, Cloverfield...

Looks great, can't miss it.

I think I'm more offended by the four stars given to You Don't Mess With the Zohan. :lookingup:

"Don't make me stain my last clean shirt with the back of your head." - Shatter Dead
"A grizzly bear with a chainsaw. Now THERE's a killing machine!" - The Simpsons
"I've always wanted to make love to an angry welder." - Jaws: the Revenge

Isn't a bit pointless to have a "Best of 2008" discussion/site/whatever when we are only half-way through the year?

Or did they do a time-warp and determine everything else from now til 2009 was really, really bad?

In any case, the only 2008 movie I've seen is Narnia, and will probably see Wall-E when it comes out, especially if it comes to the drive-in.

I'm more concerned with the fact that Speed Racer and Sex and The City both got over 3 stars.

2008 does seem to have been a better than average year for quality genre output, by which for stuff that could very well appeal to B-movie fans.

this fails because indiana jones should be before kung fu panda

First who compiled the list?
Second at last I check we're only in June ... exactly where the hell did the rest of the year go.


I think the author of the list is suffering from Premature Expectation, might wanna change the sheets.

Shouldn't lists of this type be done at the end of the respective year?   :tongueout:

Actually, on (Some Guy Who Isn't) Ebert & Roeper recently they did a "Best of the Year (So Far)" show, so doing such a list isn't really unheard of. Besides, it gives critics with short memory spans something to refer back to when they do their end-of-the-year lists. :tongueout:

The title of the article's really just badly chosen anyway, because it's a list of the movies released so far from 2008 with each separated into categories of 1-5 stars, not just the "best" as it claims.
