I've been trapped in the house with a shockingly small amount of Diet Coke for most of the last week. But I'll be working for most of the rest of the year, regardless of the weather. Ideally, this would be the time when I'd be posting my best of 2008 list. Unfortunately, I've managed to see hardly any of the big end of the year movies (Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, Australia, Marley & Me, etc), so a list at this point would be pretty pointless. Look for that sometime around Oscar season.
In the meantime, here's what I've seen over the last several weeks, and where they rank on their respective Movies Of The Year lists.
