Movie: This one is a tough one for me. There were so many. Dark Knight was ****in' awesome. So was Wall-E, Pineapple Express, etc. But, I think In Bruges takes the cake.

Album: Either Indestructible by Disturbed or Appeal To Reason by Rise Against.

Movie: This is a tough one . . . It's between Iron Man, The Dark Knight, and Wall-E, but I actually think The Curious Case of Benjamin Button will take the cake when its released. For now I think I'll go with Dark Knight.

Album: með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust By: Sigur Ros

 

Hands down.

Game: Fallout 3 . . . though I haven't been able to play much. GTA4 I probably enjoyed more, but I don't actually own that. I'm hoping the award will go to Prince of Persia next week.

 

T.V. Show: While Season 4 of LOST was friggin amazing, the winner (simply for how surprised I was by how awesome it was) goes to:

Game: I've really enjoyed Left 4 Dead, even though it hasn't been out that long.

 

TV show: I recently watched Life on Hulu, that's a fun show.

 

Book: Notes from Underground by Dostoyevski, and Fear and Trembling by Kierkegaard.

Movie: Edit - **** Wall-e, I haven't even bothered to watch it a second time on DVD, this takes first place!

YEAH!

 

Album: Immortalizer by Valient Thorr

61WLO4W8uZL-1.jpg

Full of fast rock pure goodness. A song with sweet assed dual acoustic guitars, a song about wrestling moves, and a song called "Tackle the Walrus"... and that's literal, 'nuff said. Also, "Red Flag" has the purest, awesomest guitar intro evar.

 

Game: Rock Band 2

13117.jpg

Take a wild guess as to why.

 

TV Show: Uhmm... I guess Mythbusters and P&T had a good season, meh.

 

Book: Well, I have to admit that I haven't finished a book in a good long time... but I've got plenty on a queve. Bought it this year, pretty thick book, about half way though it ATM.

I did finish this, though...

Mostly pretty picture, though...

Movie: Wall-E, since I really havn't seen anything else this year.

 

Album: Hmmmm, gonna have to go with Gnarls Barkley - The Odd Couple. It's the only CD that's come out this year that I regularly listen to.

 

Runner Up - Metallica - Death Magnetic

 

Game - Rock Band 2 by far. I don't think even WoW has kept me this entertained.

 

Runner Up - Wrath of the Lich King

 

Book - LOL BOOKS. The only thing I've read this year was The Amory Wars comics. The entire story of Coheed And Cambrias first cd Second Stage Turbine Blade to be exact.

TV Show: BATTLESTAR GALACTICA **** YEAH

 

Holy cow! How did I not put that? I guess it's because it seems so long ago now that I watched it. :/ Bring on the rest of season 4 FFS!

 

*changes TV Show*

 

@ Bongo & IG - <3 The Odd Couple, great CD.

Movie: poster6.jpg A movie that actually lived up and beyond the hype. I still can't get over how cool it is.

 

Album:010708.jpg Pretty stagnant year for music compared to last year. Sure the new NIN was cool and all, but Hanzel Und Gretyl get my vote this year.

 

Game: aaafallout3xbox3601.jpg. Honorable nod to Rock Band 2.

 

TV Show: 107284-large.jpg

 

Book: Meh, I don't have much time to read books. I did look at this one a lot earlier this year. 41EPWFR97CL._SS500_.jpg

Movie: TROPIC THUNDER!!!!!

Tropic_thunder_ver3.jpg

 

Album: Dunno, didn't buy anything from this year, or this decade, to be more specific.

 

Game: Myst for the DS. Yeah, it's technically not from this year, but the port is.

Myst%20DS%20front%20shot.jpg

 

TV show: Nothing so far, until they bring back Lost goddammit!

 

Book: Nothing from this year, but the best I read was Snow Crash.
