Best of 2008....

Movies. Love em.

Sure, Batman was good, but only bc of Heath Ledger. Im giving the #2 slot to Appaloosa. I love a good western, and with the bad guy (?) fitting the role perfect, Viggo Mortensen and his 8 Gauge shotgun, which is unbelievable, and the setting in NM ,making a perfect combination. Awesome.

Tied for #2: Taken. Not released in the US. Absolutely fantastic. Speechless.

#1 goes to Gran Torino. I laughed hard the entire movie, and deemed how I want to be that crotchety old man later in life. So crotchety infact the language is astounding. Theres no F-bombs or anything like that, just good 'ol racial slurs, more than I can think of in a single sitting. Clint Eastwood IS the role. And crotchety. With a sweet car.
