10. Election/Triad Election

Planning to see this weekend: There Will Be Blood and Persepolis (sounds like I should buy my tickets in advance!), so those could conceivably o'ertake my list.
Still haven't seen: Eastern Promises (HOOK ME UP JASON) Syndromes and a Century, 4 Months 3 Days etc. (aka The Abortion Movie), King of Kong, Margot at the Wedding, Paranoid Park
I had the most extraordinary experience last year though, in that I saw a movie that leaped into my top 10 of ALL TIME, it affected me so. If you ever get a chance to watch Peter Watkin's Punishment Park, a pseudo-documentary about the government's imprisonment of activists, who force them to play a crazy survival game, do NOT pass it up. I can still remember just about every scene and line of dialogue nearly four months later.
Best drinking game: Wizards. Gain a level by drinking a beer. Create a staff by duc taping beer cans together. Most powerful wizard wins. Generally played during sausagefests. Expect duels.
Best pick up line: I'm married. works only on young people.
Best song: Ayo Technology - 50 cent justin timbaland goddamn.

Best "too soon" jokes: Chris Beniot is a better father than Flavor Flav. -or- I heard there were some job openings at Von Maur

Posted by: Joel at January 3, 2008 1:09 PMSweet, I made Joels list, Matthew Awesome part 1 is pretty awesome. How was super bad not the best movie of the year...ok, it's a comedy, they can't ever really be the best movie, I get it...I have given up on music so I don't have anything for you there, Mr. Chan, but I had a really shitty 2007, but I think that South Park this year was probably the best since like 2001.
