Cinderella Man 3. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 4. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith 5. King Kong 6. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory 7. The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe 8. Wedding Crashers 9. Mr. and Mrs. Smith 10. War of the Worlds. Honorable Mention: Crash, March of the Penguins, Chicken Little, The Interpreter

Is this really good? It seems just to be so-so from a lot of the reader reviews I been reading about it. I think people expected more with all the hype about it. Your thoughts?
Originally Posted By DDMAN26 Yep number 7 on the list this year. I was going to place it around 4 or 5, but when I looked at the list I realized that 3-8 were pretty interchangeable. I feel pretty comfortable where I have 9 and 10. And there would be no budging on 1 and 2. Batman Begins is the best superhero movie I've ever seen. It's better than Superman, Tim Burton's Batman, Spider-Man 1 and 2. And Cinderella Man is so much better than Seabiscuit(which I liked). Trust me this movie did not deserve to flop like it did.

Originally Posted By TALL Disney Guy <Hmmm DDMAN, I noticed Narnia didn't actually make your top 10 list. Is this really good? It seems just to be so-so from a lot of the reader reviews I been reading about it.> Probably because most of them are so emotionally tied to the books (like me).
Originally Posted By WorldDisney <<WD - read it again. Narnia rates No. 7 in DDMAN26's list.>> LOL, sorry about that. I realized my mistake though, I rushed through it and didn't see "Narnia", but the other title and it didn't register. I'm actually on the fence about this film. I admit, fantasy movies are not my thing, so I look to my brother for this kind of stuff since he's into these kinds of films and he didn't seem to like it all that much (said it felt more like a cable movie than a big screen film). Now that I'm back in Compton, might just do the bootleg thing instead .
