    Just curious. Compiling something. Explain why if you want.

    I'm casting a vote for Little Miss Sunshine, simply because Jack Nicholson did his best to ruin The Departed.

    I voted Borat.

    The Departed was the most ... umm, enjoyable ... movie experience I had this year. Loved that movie, and was thoroughly into it from beginning to end.

    Borat made me cringe so much that it made me hesitate to vote for it ... for a few seconds.

    Interesting that you didn't include The Da Vinci Code, which also came out this year. But as everyone who saw it can attest, there's no reason to include it. Decent but safe movie ... much, much, much better book.

    I've only seen four movies this year, and The Departed was the best one.

    United 93... and not really close to me.

    Incredible detail and the fact that four KEY players weren't actors is fucking incredible.

    1. United 93
    2. Borat
    3. Little Miss Sunshine
    4. The Departed

    The Departed (and it wasn't even close)

    of course I've only seen 4 movies on the list: V, United 93, Inside Man and Departed.

    want to see Borat badly.

    The Queen is outstanding. Helen Mirren should be a lock for Best Actress Oscar...

    I can't believe Saw III wasn't listed. [\sarcasm]

    I voted for The Departed.

    A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints was the best movie I've seen this year. The Departed is a very close second.
