Just a couple o' cartoons and that horrendous BBC mini-series (which had a *few* things goin' for it).

Other mentions: War of the Worlds Mr. and Mrs. Smith (NO, not oscar material, but really fun) Star Wars (DEFINITELY not oscar material except for the special effects, but wrapped up the prequels pretty well) Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I'm sure there are others, but those are the only ones coming to me that I seen so far.

I may go see it again at the dollar theater this weekend because I still can't stop talking about it . Glad someone else liked it as much as me! Thanks for all your suggestions guys, I have some great picks to add to my Netflix queue.

Originally Posted By BrnardM Some of these are great but I just want to put in a word for Sin City. I wouldn't call it the best film of the year but a great acheivement none the less. The violence aside, the use of color and computer rendering create a real comic book world that is a love letter to all noir fans. It's that fascinating aspect that makes the film unique and worth mention.
