Preparing a Top Films of 2008 List

Won't make the cut.

About halfway through 2007 I started keeping a list of all the films I see, where I saw them and gave them a numerical rating out of 10. I was curious to see how many films I watch in a given year and how time alters my opinion of them.

With 2008 being the first complete year of the list I’ve decided to compile a Top 10 list for the year along with a Most Disappointing.

Just taking a cursory view of the list after sorting by ranking I was surprised at the results. A couple of big films from earlier in the year appeared a lot higher than expected and after a subsequent viewing will probably end up getting knocked down a few notches. Likewise there are a few films that have unexpectedly stuck with me, that will probably move up. I’m glad I’ve kept the list though as it gives me a good foundation to work from.

I’ll wait until January 1 2009 before I start posting the list as there are a few late releases that could be contenders namely “Valkyrie“, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” and “Frost/Nixon“.
