Best Movies of 2008
I see a lot of movies. Most of my friends, coworkers, etc, family, know it. Some I pay for. Some I get for free. Most I see in hotels or airplanes.
Recently a friend asked what movies she should add to her Netflix, so I reviewed the 2008 movie list for her and dug out the movies I felt were worth seeing. Not that they were all fantastic, but that they were worth netflixing. There’s a lot of them, and they’re all over the map, and a few haven’t come out to the public yet. Either way, this is my list. Feel free to mock me, but remember: I ride a motorcycle and have friends that’ll bust your kneecaps ;-) I kid, I kid. Probably ;-)

Thanks for this post…..Like u, I also simply addicted to movies. Ur list was useful for me to decide what movie to be downloaded next….But, I ‘d rather if you had list these ordered by their rating(according to u) rather than alphabetically.

Yeah, where the hell did you come up with this list? Some are great, but you have absolute garbage on here…Babylon AD? Chaos Theory? These movies made me want to light myself on fire and jump in front of a train.

*all* the picks are bad? Really? There’ll be 20 academy award winners in here at least, so we obviously have different standards.
