Poll question: Best film released in 2006?
If your choice is something else, please reply with your choice. V for Vendetta was released in 2005.

1. Yikes! I haven't seen ANY of these.
This year has not been the most financially prosperous for me, though, so I haven't seen a lot of movies.

11. You mean the originally planned release date?
Yeah, if you look at it that way. It was pushed back to April, 2006, but I'm still counting it because it's a wicked awesome movie. :hi:

3. Iraq for Sale
Sorry 'bout not seeing anything on your list. :blush: But it's a rare movie that gets me to the theater.

On the other hand, I'm a big home viewer. Iraq for Sale gets my nod for this year.

22. L'enfant
I've seen only two of them, so voted for the best of what I saw. The other was Clerks II - though I like looking at Rosario Dawson. I never did see Clerks I.

The Belgium film was good.

26. The Departed was frickin' brilliant.
Disclaimer: I did not see Little Miss Sunshine. But I am not generally a fan of comedies, particularly "poignant" ones.
