Mike's 2007 Movie List

Here's my list. This is my favorite movies released in 2007 not necessarily the best. I think this is the best year for movies since 1994. This year had great independent films and even a few good blockbusters. This list will definitely change over time as there are easily 10-15 flicks I missed this year that I'm anxiously awaiting on DVD. Also this year probably more so than recent will change over multiple viewings. All year my favorite has been "Once" only to be usurped at the last minute by "Into the Wild". Eric and I talk movies all of the time, I'd love to hear different opinions on either of our choices and even your own lists.
