I thought Click was predictable and cliche. Seriously, I knew it would be a dream the second he lied down on that bad (OMG spoilers!!!)

I haven't seen many movies this year, but I really liked Casino Royale. Definitely the best Bond movie I've ever seen.

Let's see if I can remember some...

- Pirates of the Caribbean II
- The Prestige
- X-Men 3
- Night at the Museum
- Casino Royale

I'm surprised no one said Casino Royale yet.

Oh wow, totally forgot about Talledega Nights. I guess I just figured it was older because it's already a classic.

I actually used the scene between Ricky and the assistant for an English project, one where we had to find a speech given in popular media and analyze it. The speech was great, and the song playing in the background, Faithfully by Journey, is my second favorite 80s song (next to Heaven by Bryan Adams).

The only problem with using it in English was getting a copy of the speech (it hadn't come out on DVD yet). I wound up going to Youtube on my home computer, then videotaping it with a handheld recorder. That was the origin of the now widely-used term triple-bootleg.

Cars was great. XD
Walk The Line was good too, but I think that came out in 2005.

Didn't see a lot of movies this year. POTC I almost fell asleep during so we can scratch that off...

Umm, probably Science of Sleep and Saw III. (I think I am pretty much the only person who loved the third Saw. I'm such a dork for those movies. It's my guilty pleasure.

)

Borat, Casino Royale, Happy Feet.

Bit further down on the list are X-men 3 and PotC 2

Pirates of the Caribbean was definitely my favourite. It was the latest time my parents let me stay out till to watch it, and I was with my two best friends a the time. Oh, and the movie was pretty good too
