Happy Feet

It's the only one I've been to see this year.

Atari , why did you like United 93 so much ?

I believe I've only seen one movie that has come out in 2006 (I could be wrong.) And that was Clerks 2.

I wanna see Flags of Our Fathers, Scanner Darkly, Little Miss Sunshine, and the Departed though.

Clerks II.
That's all I've seen, and it's one of the best ever.

I think A Scanner Darkly may be the only 2006 movie I saw. It was awesome though.

The Fountain - Darren Aronofsky
The Wind That Shakes the Barley - Ken Loach
The Departed - Martin Scorsese
A Scanner Darkly - Richard Linklater
The Science of Sleep - Michel Gondry
Volver - Pedro Almodóvar
United 93 - Paul Greengrass... mmm
Wassup Rockers - Larry Clark... nothing special.
World Trade Center - Oliver Stone... nothing special.

I'd put The Devil & Daniel Johnston, but it's from 2005.

Can't think of any more right now. It's been a quiet film year for me.
THere were mostly remakes, sequals and total crap.

Still wanna see:
Andy Warhol: A Documentary Film - Ric Burns
Starring Laurie Anderson, Jeff Koons, Irving Blum, Donna DeSalvo, Pat Hackett, Dave Hickey, Stephen Koch, Paul Morrissey, and George Plimpton.
Neil Young: Heart of Gold - Jonathan Demme
The Devil Wears Prada - David Frankel

The Science of Sleep
Little Miss Sunshine
Babel
Volver
The Departed
A Scanner Darkly
Taladega Nights
La Moustache
Wassup Rockers
Stranger Than Fiction
The Fountain

cant think of any other movies that were released this year worth mentioning

Pan's Labyrinth.

People need to see this film. It will be remembered as the Citizen Kane or BAttleship Potemkin of fantasy cinema. It is that good, it is that important, it is that clever. It is quite superb.

I'm desperate for it to come out on DVD so that I can watch it and its companion piece The Devil's Backbone together. I've mentioned the latter in just about every film thread there's been, but I'm more than happy to recommend it again!

Don't bother.

Looks good to me... are you going to tell me why?

The whole cast seems like they would tell something that has'nt been said before.If you're looking for more insight into Warhol,you'd be disappointed.Then again,watch it.I aint know how much of him you know already.

I can imagine. There have been many films/documentaries about him. Does it have any footage of Marcel Duchamp visiting the Factory?

Why the interest in that?

I was very disappointed in The Science Of Sleep. Strip away the dream sequences and it's pretty much a date movie for people who don't like Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock.

Can you see a tear on my face?

Just interested, that's all. I saw footage of it years ago and haven't seen it since. Warhol taking pictures/filming Duchamp, stole the show at the party.

I went pretty often this year. I'm still floored by Letters From Iwo Jima and, to a lesser extent, The Good Shepherd.
Neil Young: Heart of Gold - Jonathan Demme was on my list at one point, but I didn't even mention it honorably...Doh! I saw World Trade Center too and it was so-so.

Andy Warhol: A Documentary Film - Ric Burns
I removed The Devil & Daniel Johnston (which, as you pointed out, came out last year...Doh!) and replaced it with this documentary.
Overall, I was somewhat underwhelmed with this even though I still like it a great deal. Although it leaves out some key points like Andy and Marcel and there's little concerning the Factory Superstars, it's fairly informative and entertaining. It focuses more on Warhol's films than any other documentary. There is only one time in the whole thing where Anderson slows down to anything other than a breakneck pace for her narration and that's disconcerting, but I thought Koons' reading as Warhol was very good and I enjoyed the commentators. As you may remember, I was exceedingly anticipating it. I taped it from the PBS broadcasts onto two VHS. I forgot this was released to art houses. I will write though that The BBC Warhol documentary that porkmarras posted a YouTube link to some time ago was perhaps more informative concerning a more in-depth analysis of Warhol's art and the commentary was slightly more highbrow overall.
The Factory is supposedly coming out soon.

I haven't seen The Fountain, The Wind That Shakes the Barley, The Science of Sleep, Volver and Wassup Rockers.
Out of the ones you listed that I haven't seen, I want to see The Devil Wears Prada the most.

The Departed (my number two) is well-acted, edge-of-your-seat, high-adrenaline, high-end entertainment all-in-all, but United 93 is a fairly monumental film and peerless in its intensity and emotion.
I would like to see Scorsese get Best Picture if United 93 doesn't get it.
Most projections are, however, that Scorsese will finally get his Oscar this year, but for Best Director.
