Weekend Oscars / favorite movies thread

Submitted by lucidity on Thu, 01/25/2007 - 1:46pm.

Here's something for a little change of pace — what were your favorite movies of 2006? My Top 7 list is:

An Inconvenient Truth
Brick
Half Nelson
Stranger Than Fiction
Thank You For Smoking
The Illusionist
Who Killed the Electric Car?

If you need to jog your memory, Metacritic has a good compilation of the major film critics' Top 10 lists, plus a nifty graph at the bottom of the page that shows how many times each movie was cited. The critics' favorites were United 93, The Queen, The Departed, Pan's Labyrinth, and Borat.

I don't see many movies, but
