Best 7 for 07 – Movies

So after checking on this after quite a while, I’ve realised that the year has gone by and I haven’t even had a chance to finish my usual end of year lists! As a result, I’ve written the following quickly to finish off and for you to enjoy and discuss.

In terms of film, I’ve actually did see quite a few the last year and have created a list based on what I have seen and heard from others. Much like the other lists, it is meant to be a record of what was good and big in the year rather than those big long epic boring films you usually end up falling asleep halfway through. If you would like to see those, please look here. For the others, I present to you the list:

7) The Simpsons Movie – I always thought this movie could have been way bigger than what it was. Being a Simpsons fan (as all people from my generation) I was obliged to see it. I was always under the impression that the movie format would have been much better served if used for the final episode of the show, but I guess that was not to be.
6) American Gangster – Pretty much a black version of the Godfather.
5) Ratatouille – Apparently a great animated movie, of which most are anyway.
4) There Will Be Blood – Watch this great movie just for the line “I drink your milkshake” which started the new phenomenon.
3) No Country For Old Men – I hear a lot about how good this is and with all the awards it has won I decided to place it here.
2) 300 – HA-OOH! HA-OOH! HA-OOH!

And the winner is…

1) Transformers – Anyone who knew me would not be surprised to see this here. This movie fails to disappoint because it is so awesome. Being a Transformers fan I had high expectations and it lived up to them. Megan Fox + Transformers = Win.
