Wall•E
4 Months, 3 Weeks, and 2 Days (I don't know if this is '07 or '08, but it played in theaters here in '08)
Jellyfish
Reprise
The Flight of the Red Balloon
Paranoid Park
Iron Man
The Visitor (really good until the last 3rd or so)
Surfwise
Stop-Loss

I wish I could put Lake of Fire here, because I couldn't see it until '08, but I know it was released last year.  Anyway, it would tie with Wall•E for me.

A few notable movies that didn't entirely win me over but might be worth checking out:
My Blueberry Nights
Snow Angels
Love Songs
The Fall
Be Kind Rewind (was that this year?)
Futurama: The Beast With A Billion Backs

Raven haired Linda and her school mate Linnea are studying after school, when their desires take over and they kiss and strip off their clothes. They take turns fingering and licking one another's trimmed pussies on the desks, then fuck each other to intense orgasms with colorful vibrators.

Sleepless

Indiana Jones
The Happening


He held on. The dolphin and all the rest of its pod turned and swam out to sea, and still he held on. This is it, he thought. Then he remembered that they were air-breathers too. It was going to be all right.

:shock:

You went to see that? If so, the only good excuse to see it is if you went with a hot girl you're falling for.

THE DARK KNIGHT
American Teen / WALL·E / Cloverfield / Pineapple Express
Christopher Nolan's directive was clear to everyone in the cast and crew: Use CGI only as a last resort.

Making a list is probably a moot point since it'll mostly just be me reorganizing the films already brought up here by everyone else.  My only real option is to point out the movie that has yet to have been recognized:

The Last Mistress
"As a matter of fact I only work with the feeling of something magical, something seemingly significant. And to keep it magical I don't want to know the story involved, I just want the hypnotic effect of it somehow seeming significant without knowing why." - Len Lye

Kal

So far...

- WALL-E
- The Dark Knight
- Iron Man
- Forgetting Sarah Marshall
- Step Brothers


MacGuffin

"Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art." - Andy Warhol
