Thanks for an opportunity to reflect. If asked, I would say that I LOVE comedy. However, my choices for best film are all serious:

BEST
* Pan's Labyrinth
* Kite Runner
* 300
* City of Men
*Last King of Scotland

WORST
* The newest Indiana Jones ("Indiana Jones and the Crystal Walker" - ha. "Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Hip Replacement.")
* Mr. & Mrs. Smith (How can two sexy people be so unsexy together?)
* Eyes Wide Shut (Answering the previous question...)
* Flintstones movie w/Rosie O'Donnell
BEYOND TERRIBLE
* Harold & Kumar go to Guantanimo Bay

Hmm... Choices choices.

If we must talk Hollywood:

The Ninth Gate - before Johnny Depp sold out.

Canadian

eXistenZ - excellent sci-fi movie. Actually all of Cornenberg's work is great.



And because I am a huge fan of the TV Show:

Trailer Park Boys; The Movie - the show ended it's 7 season run this December. It's a east coast Canadian production, available on Showcase. Unfortunately, it was only picked up by a small amount of stations in the US, so most of you would never hear of this show.


There are tons of other 'foregin' movies that could make my list, but I'll leave the exploration to you all


And now... the worst (Sadly, made in Ottawa):

Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter - (Religious undertones aside) it has been the worst independent attempt at action-horror I have ever seen. Worse still, the cast and producers have degrees from the same university as me...
