I'll use US release dates:

1. My Blueberry Nights [79]
2. Cloverfield [77]
3. Be Kind Rewind [70]
4. Iron Man [68]
5. Snow Angels [57]
6. The Visitor [53]

8. In Bruges [46]
9. Speed Racer [34]
10. Leatherheads [31]

Hm, I've seen exactly ten. Not so good, so far.

[Silencio]

Using U.S. release dates:

1. 4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days
2. Funny Games
3. Paranoid Park
4. Water Lilies
5. In Bruges
6. Forgetting Sarah Marshall
7. Cassandra's Dream
8. Cloverfield
9. The Bank Job
10. Be Kind Rewind

[Ezee E]

4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days would be my #1 if we consider it 2007.

[Morris Schæffer]

1. Doomsday
2. Iron Man
3. Cloverfield
4. Rambo

That's all I've seen.

[lovejuice]

based on US released date, The Flight of The Red Balloon will probably be the only film worth mentioned in regard to the thread.

[Derek]

Worth mentioning so far:

1. In the City of Sylvia (Jose Luis Guerin)
2. Paranoid Park (Gus Van Sant)
3. The Man from London (Bela Tarr)
4. In Bruges (Martin McDonagh)

Only #1 has a realistic shot to make the top 10 by the end of the year.

[Doclop]

Ugh. I hate that I missed Paranoid Park. What's wrong with me?

Anyway, not crazy about this list, but it could be worse, I guess.

1. 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days
2. Funny Games
3. My Blueberry Nights
4. Derek
5. Iron Man
6. Stop-Loss
7. Speed Racer
8. Cloverfield
9. Cassandra's Dream
10. The Life Before Her Eyes

Pray the Devil Back to Hell was decent, too.

I added Rambo to the bottom of my list. So congratulations Speed Racer! You're no longer the worst 2008 film I've seen.

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten you didn't like Speed Racer.

Overrated.

[transmogrifier]

Overrated.

Well, it's no Trapped in the Closet, but it does what it set out to do efficiently and with a minimum of fuss.

Trapped in the Closet is kind of amazing.

Trapped in the Closet is kind of amazing.

Best film of 2005.
