[Jax]

Now that 2003's drawing to a close, what have been your favorite movies this year?

 

[The Serpent King]

Pirates of the Carribean
Seabiscuit
Bad Santa
Last Samurai
Kill Bill

 

[Jax]

Yeah Pirates was a great flick! And I have to say, for being a kid flick, Finding Nemo was pretty good..I didn't even mind taking my son to see it twice.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

I still need to see Bad Santa. it looks funny as shit.

 

[forevernin]

finding nemo
pirates of the caribean
the two towers deluxe edition on dvd

 

[Lokakuu]

I would say Finding Nemo. I laughed,cried it had it all but the gratuitous sex.

 

[Palmer Eldritch]

Dogville. Easily the best movie of the year, although the best time I had in cinema was with Pirates of the Carribean. Haven't seen The Return of the King, so this might change...

The best film of the year is undoubtedly Harvey Pekar's "American Splendor." It's as wise as it is beautiful, and it's one of those unconventional pieces of art that force you to recall why you love movies so much. Highly recommended.

Some honorable mentions include:

Sofia Coppola's "Lost in Translation": Another film that proves 2003 was quite an amazing year for movies, some of the best heartfelt dialogue I've heard in a long time...

Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill: Vol. 1": Incredibly stylish, entertaining, and dazzling motion picture. Though the script is up for a candid debate, there's no denying that this is the most original picture of the year in terms of cinematography. Personally, I liked the screenplay, and I especially loved how Tarantino payed homage to the old martial arts films of the 60s, as well as japanese anime, which was carried out beautifully in a 10-minute segment depicting the biography of a lethal assassin. I mean, What's not to enjoy?

Daniel Boyle's "28 Days Later"

Still..."Return of the King" is to be released this Wednesday, so that all might change.

thanks edgecrusher! that reminds me;

I also extremely enjoyed Terminator 3 and American Wedding. Excellent movies. If you didn't find American Wedding funny, you're hereby officially heartless and/or soulless.

Stupid is not funny. Stupid is still stupid

 

[Crusader]

Best: Return of the King

Worst: Terminator 3
