I plan to have a formal Best of 2008 List up either tonight or tomorrow, depending on how ambitious I am (and I want to read David Bordwell's essay on Slumdog Millionaire before I make a final decision about it). Until then, here's the roundup of what I've watched in the last few weeks and where they place on their respective years:
