However, I like to think positively and in the spirit of awards season, of what I've seen, here are my favorites.
Top 5

Atonement – this movie haunts me
Across the Universe - funner than Atonement, but not at the same level

Juno - I don't want to talk about Ellen Page, I want to talk about Kimya Dawson and the soundtrack

The Savages – my favorite actor and actress – can’t be bad

The Darjeeling Limited - not my favorite Wes Anderson flick, especially having to follow up my favorite, but still a good one.
Honorable Mention: The Great Debaters, Sicko, Waitress
Top movie soundtracks:
1. Juno
2. Across the Universe
3. The Darjeeling Limited
Who would have thought that a Wes Anderson soundtrack would have been beaten out by two other movies in the same year?
Kimya Dawson - Tire Swing
Kimya Dawson - Loose Lips
The Moldy Peaches - Anyone Else But You
The Kinks - Strangers
The Kinks - This Time Tomorrow
Satyajit Ray - Title Music from TEEN KANYA
Jim Sturgess - I've Just Seen a Face
Martin Luther McCoy - While My Guitar Gently Weeps
Joe Anderson w/Salma Hayek - Happiness is a Warm Gun

I still haven't seen "I'm Not There," which does have some good Dylan covers, but not greatness throughout. I plan on watching "Once" in the next couple days which is supposed to be a movie that will make you fall in love with music all over again so I may have a new arrival to this list. We'll see...
