Best 2007 film so far..

[truebullfan]

Name one or two movies that you enjoyed the most this year. I would have to go with Zodiac.

[books]

****, working at a video store...this is REALLY touch.

The Fountain was a trip from beginning to end, very amazing to watch.

The Departed (love to Scorsese), 28 Weeks Later (love the pair).

All I can think of now.

Well the departed (my fav. of 2006) and the fountain (hated it) are 2006 movies so they don't count.

I just saw 28 days later and though it was good will have to check out the sequel when it comes out on DVD.

Grindhouse so far has been the most fun I've had at the cinema in a long while. It did everything right for me. It was hilarious, was exhilarating, created by two of my favorite directors (Rodriguez and Tarantino), and just was rad all the way through. Just was happy to see another Tarantino flick since I'm an obsessive Tarantino fanboy.

Second favorite film this year I'll pick the indie film Once. It was charming and touching from beginning to end and the music really requires listening to for it's excellence. Gotta love how it's a musical but not in the sense that there's huge dance numbers. It's a musical just stripped down to the bare essentials-musicians playing their instruments and singing. Beautiful.

sunshine = epic. I'm waiting for darjeeling limited and be kind rewind to make this call, though!

[saqibnk]

wow this is a tough one...Im gonna have to say Grindhouse as well, it just made for an awesome time at the theater. honorable mentions go to 28 Weeks Later and Sunshine

[truebullfan]

Grindhouse was very good and very original but right now its my 4th fav. of 2007 b/c Of Death Proof. Planet Terror was badass but Death Proof had me bored until the car scene. The dialogue was just boring and pointless.

Also the "Dont "trailer was awesome!

Agreed...it was easy for me to overlook all that as soon as Kurt Russell said "Get ready to fly *****!"

[magunwarrior]

Grindhouse
Bourne Ultimatum
The Simpsons
Zodiac

And that's in no particular order.

[tectec]

Its hard to pick just one. The two that stand out the most so far are Ratatouille and The Bourne Ultimatum. Superbad is looking like it'll be pretty damn awesome too though.

[heyseuss]

OHhh!!. This thread confused me. I was reading through everyone's replies before I realised it wasn't about the best two Bond films so far.

[darthender]

I realize nobody else thinks so, but Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End.

Basically, I consider Dead Man's Chest and At World's End as a single long movie. And taken like that, there's just no part of it I didn't totally love. Alot of people said it was confusing, but once you get to the end I think that everything every character does makes perfect sense at every point.

I just never get tired of watching it.

:eek:

wtf !?!?!?!?!?

[darthender]

:eek:

wtf !?!?!?!?!?I...liked PotC3 better than any other movie this year...I guess is the point I'm trying to convey. I didn't think I was being obtuse.

I was hoping you were being sarcastic, sorry.

[ramshaw]

I'd go with Zodiac too.

[denmmurray]

hmmm...zodiac was really good...but it made me feel so icky...

I'm gonna say ratatouille even though I haven't seen it...I just know.

[deegraww]

I'm gonna go with Sunshine. Great movie right there.

P.S. Ding!

[Dazabrit]

The Fountain was (is) a Beautiful piece of work. It's more of a Philisophical Art Installation rather than a movie. Being in the UK, i'm probably going to have to wait about 734 years until they release most of the flicks you guys are talking about.

That said... Sunshine was showing not so long ago and I missed it, God damn! It's probably coz Jesus hates me. I haven't been eating enough Jesus Biscuits. :confused:

[johnnyswift]

The new Bourne film was awesome.

Although, I think the film that I enjoyed the most this year and was like, "Holy shit." at the end was, 28 Weeks Later. It surprised the crap out of me how good it was.

[colonel-kurtz]

In my eyes, the best movies so far have been:

Zodiac
Black Snake Moan
Knocked Up

Haven't seen Sunshine, yet. Sounds like it may make the list once I have.

Zodiac was good but i felt it was a little too long...unfortunately i have yet to see Bourne 3. im just gonna go ahead and make an early prediction and say 3:10 To Yuma will be my favorite film of 2007

[Dazabrit]

HA HA HA, that sure does look like a tasty way to start the day!!! :D

Once I get stuck into that tasty nutritious breakfast... Jesus will have no choice but to accept me as one of his children.

AMEN

[lnknpk04]

Zodiac
Knocked Up
Sunshine <------ probably the winner
Hot Fuzz

[Dazabrit]

I would like to say Hot Fuzz but it was released on DVD early 07 for us Britters. I Love The Fuzz, it's classic. :D

[cheech_sp]

Planet Terror
Knocked Up

Can't wait for 'War'

[elsux0r]

I always have a horrible time remembering if movies I loved were from THIS year or what... but Sunshine was probably the best movie I've seen this year.

[leroyjenkinsftw]

ratatuine anyone? lol i know thats not spelled right but it was a good movie...my favorite would have to had been ummm departed ftw

[zelnox]

Ratatouille for me was also my favorite so far this year. It delivered much more to me than a few movies I saw prior with real actors.

Ocean's 13 was enjoyable and Transformers was exciting. I didn't know about Sunshine until reading this thread. Looks interesting. I haven't had the chance to watch Hot Fuzz, 28 Weeks Later, Waitress, or The Bourne Ultimatum yet. Hehehe, Balls of Fury comes out in a few weeks.

[heyseuss]

Check out the Chinese movie Infernal Affairs if you like Departed.

[zombierin]

Totally Hot Fuzz.

[heyseuss]

Totally Hot Fuzz.

You should get that looked at !! :D

[truebullfan]

just saw Sunshine today and i thought was good but nothing great. I still got Zodiac,Breach,300, Grindhouse and Fracture ahead of it.

And once again "The Departed" is a 2006 film!

[boxcarjay]

i just got back from superbad and holy shit thats the funniest movie of the year i saw so far.

[cmu]

1. Sunshine (although I hated the inclusion of Monster Man. without him, it would be one of my favourite movies of all time)

2. Ocean's 13
3. Live Free or Die Hard
4. Simpsons The Movie

-> haven't seen Bourne yet, which will probably top my list)

[MaxTheSilent]

Ratatouille
Hot Fuzz
300

[lavahot]

Bourne Ultimatum
Simpsons
1408
Sunshine (when I see it)

Ratatoullie was good, but not great, although I did watch it from a cam cap.
If you said die hard or transformers, I hate you.

Man, I can't remember anything before 8 weeks ago.

[heyseuss]

I was just realising how I hadn't seen any movies mentioned in this thread or on TRS. I think the last movie I saw in a theatre was Spiderman 1. Before that, it was Saving Silverman, Joe Dirt and Mission Impossible. Those are the last 4 times I've been to a movie theatre in the past 5-6? years. Wow.

[zombierin]

You should get that looked at !! :D

Oh good lord. haha.
Thanks for that.
That's probably why I shouldn't come on the forums at 3am.

Coming on at 3am isn't as bad as being on from midnight til 8am. :o
