2. American Splendor
3. All The Real Girls

5. Elephant

I can finish the list after I see Gerry, 21 Grams, Return Of The King, Dogville, and Triplets Of Belleville
Those who say that the totalitarian state of the Soviet Union was not "real" Marxism also cannot admit that one simple feature of Marxism makes totalitarianism necessary:  the rejection of civil society. Since civil society is the sphere of private activity, its abolition and replacement by political society means that nothing private remains. That is already the essence of totalitarianism; and the moralistic practice of the trendy Left, which regards everything as political and sometimes reveals its hostility to free speech, does nothing to contradict this implication.

When those who hated capital and consumption (and Jews) in the 20th century murdered some hundred million people, and the poster children for the struggle against international capitalism and America are now fanatical Islamic terrorists, this puts recent enthusiasts in an awkward position. Most of them are too dense and shameless to appreciate it, and far too many are taken in by the moralistic and paternalistic rhetoric of the Left.

it's okay. i don't read a lot of other ppl's posts either.

City Of God can go on either 2002 or 2003 lists, since Miramax is pushing it for Oscars this year. Just like some of us are putting Dogville on our lists this year, but most people will count it as a 2004 release. Foregin distribution always blurs the lines.

Actually, that was posted as I was writing mine. So when I hit submit, I saw it there.

But no edit was made. I'll take it off once I've seen all those others I mentioned.

P, I completely missed where you ranked Kill Bill on your thing...oh, and if you're going to bash it, don't bother answer that last statement.

i didn't rank it. on the other thread called "So far this year.." i gave it an honorable mention, and it was below all the real girls. i'm convinced it's best to judge it with the second part.
