Top Ten Best Movies Midway Through 2008

Figuring out the ten worst films over the course of the first six months of 2008 was difficult because there were so many. Unfortunately, figuring out the best films of the first six months wasn&#039;t nearly as difficult as it turns out there was really only one film left [...]]]></description>

Whoa. Wanted did very well, especially given how rated R it was. I suppose the theory that people would see both (WALL&#8226;E included) was the one I should have gone with. Ah well. At least I got most of the order right.

Get Smart silences The Love Guru
