GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

*More to come as I was just about finished with the actual list before I hit my back key on my mouse and cursed for the next five minutes*

The first of my Top Ten 2007 lists will be on movies. Now note these are my Top Ten Movies, not yours. So you will no doubt find them weird choices, and some that you may agree with. Also, I don't go to the theaters much, so these are movies that have come out in 2007 and have made it to DVD. Kind of a weird way to go about it, but if I haven't seen it I can't put it on my list. So without further delay, lets begin.

10. 300 - Yes, the movie looked cool. Only problem was everything else was kinda cheesy. The dialouge sucked, the acting was decent, and the story wasn't as accurate as I would like. However, it was still a good movie as the action sequences were great and it didn't drag on.

9. Hot Fuzz - While it may not be as good as Shaun of the Dead, and it does take a while to get going; Hot Fuzz is a good movie. It makes fun of cop/action movies and is fun to watch. If you can get passed the first hour or so the movie picks up and you'll be happy you stuck with it.

8. Knocked Up - While it is a funny movie, a lot of people say it is better than I thought it was. It may be because the subject matter didn't sync with me or it may just be that I didn't get it. That still doesn't matter as I laughed and enjoyed the movie.

7. Spider-Man 3 - A satisfying end to the trilogy, but it had one HUGE flaw. Too small of focus on Venom. More focus on Venom and less unimportant story elements would have made it much better.

6. Ratatouille - Talk about a movie that surprised me. It was funny and had heart to it. Sure I've seen funny animated movies before, but nothing that had some heart to it like Ratatouille did. Fun for kids and adults.

5. The Simpsons Movie - It only took 18 years for it to happen. It basically ended up seeming like one big episode, but not like some other show that just put three episodes together and called it a "movie". The thing that surprised me the most was at one point there was actually some true emotion to the moive. That was shocking to say the least, but made it that much better.

4. Transformers - I didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised. The action was awesome, the Transformers were cool (although there should have been more screen time of them), and it was actually funny. It'll be interesting to see if they make another one, especially since Starscream got away.

3. Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End - I may be one of the few people that thought this movie was as good as the others. It was funny, it looked great, and it wrapped up most of the story at the end. Only let down is they still left it open for a Pirates 4, but I don't expect it to ever happen.

2. Superbad - What makes this movie so great? Is it because it's hilarious? No. Is it because it's a Judd Apatow movie? No. It's because it's more real than most movies of this type. I actually knew people like the characters in Superbad. They actually seemed like High School kids. Not because of their looks, but by the way they acted. Sure it was vulgar, but what High School kid isn't?

1. Futurama: Bender's Big Score - Yes, a direct to DVD movie tops my list. Why? Because it's freakin Futurama. FOX screwed up by cancelling it and it wouldn't stay dead. To make things better, they came back better than ever. Things haven't changed much, and it has gotten even more adult in it's absence. To tell the truth, that's a good thing. It has heart, it has comedy, it has more intelligence then probably all of the movies this year, and it is just fun to watch. To make things even better, there are 3 more to come. I can't wait.
