I finally caught TWBB. Not as good as No Country, but definitely in my top three of 2007. Daniel Day-Lewis is the only actor of the past 25 years that I would put in the top ten of all time (I think he could make the top five).

I know this is late, but I only recently saw this movie. I gotta say, I was disappointed. The plot reeks of that Matrix faux-philosophy that seems deep until you think about it for three seconds. No one can show emotion, yet Bale gets yelled at when suspected? One yells when one is angry, no? the only other reason is to overcome background noise, and the room they are in is silent. Also, Diggs' character  is show as greedy and ambitious. An emotionless drone would not seek honors that set him apart from the rest. Still, the action is terrific, but the plot is sadly empty.

The dead link makes me sad, which is ironic because it's supposed to show a comedy.

Both fantastic movies - Letters From Iwo Jima is a masterful film, seen from a perspective you don't usually get all the way; one of the best films I saw in 2007.

Pretty good list, i agree about No Country for Old Men; one of the greatest movies I've ever seen.

Juno was the worst thing ever though. Please, no one go see it. It's the corniest indie bullsh*t ever; the music and the movie.

A story of black market intrigue in post-war Vienna, set to a very fitting zither soundtrack. Famously brilliant directing and cinematography. Great performances out of all of the leads. A must see for suspense, detective, and noir fans. Screenplay written by novelist Graham Greene.

Skwisgaar Skwigelf: taller than a tree.

Toki Wartooth: not a bumblebee.
