Our friend Thadd joined us for Conversation #27, in which we overview our favorite movies of last year.
The majority of time is spent counting-down and comparing our own lists. We also touch upon which movies were the best-reviewed by critics, which were the top grossers, and which received Oscar nominations. A great many films are discussed, but I won't ruin the fun by telling you what they are.
As always, discussion veers occasionally from the subject at hand. Tangents include: what Phil will do with the money made from sponsorships to Very Serious, urban dance & step movies, Black History month & MLK weekend, Western & Sci-Fi genres, fairy-tale movies, metadiegetic vs. extradiegetic, intertextuality, the Best Bums of the Year and people who wait in line to go to a new Wendy's or Cheesecake Factory.

i agree with phil: anyone who doesn't like stardust is wrong. i recently found out that matthew vaughn the director, also directed layer cake, the daniel craig film, and was the best man at guy richie's wedding.
Personally, I think Ratatouille is Disney's best movie to date (and my favorite of 2007).
I think that you should go see Atonement. Its not what you think it is. Although, there is some atoning.
