There is a thread for just top ten lists, I did a tally there thru the first 60 or so posts if you want to use that data.

Cool. I did it one year for music and it was a lot of work but it was cool to see the results. I figure by Feb. 1 everyone will have their 2007 films ranked. I still have to see Youth Without Youth, for example.

[Joe Molotov]

Yeah, I'm not quite finished with Top 10 yet. I'm planning on spending this weekend watching movies (I've still got Persepolis, Kite Runner, Bucket List, Darjeeling Limited, Black Book, and La Vie en Rose lined up) then I'll review my list and make a final judgement. It's not like there's any 2008 movies out worth watching yet, so no need to rush.

My Top Ten of movies seen in 2007:

1. The Fountain
2. Sunshine
3. The Bourne Ultimatum
4. Children of Men
5. Pan's Labyrinth
6. Citizen Kane
7. Ratatouille
8. Tekkon Kinkreet
9. Superbad
10. Russian Dolls

I haven't ranked my movies since 2002 so I figured it was about time again
