According to Movie Hole:

1. Batman Begins
- Just when I thought it wouldn't get any better than Alicia Silverstone in a nippled-rubber batsuit.

2. Serenity
- Joss Whedon gave George Lucas a run for his money this year. Buy the DVD, You get a sequel.

3. In Good Company
- Dennis Quaid proves, yet again, that he's one of the best actors of his generation.

4. Star Wars Episode III : Revenge of the Sith
- George Lucas turfed the 'Instant Movie Maker' programme for Apple for this superb last chapter.

5. In Her Shoes
- Toni and Cameron played a part in Kleenex's shares rising.

6. Sin City
- Even finer looking than Jessica Biel emerging from a hot tub.

7. Mr and Mrs Smith
- Sometimes it's good to presume the worst.

8. Kiss Kiss Bang Bang
- Welcome back Downey Jr, nice one Kilmer, long time no see Mr Black!

9. Shopgirl

Strange... I remember watching In Good Company back in 2004.

[Heineken Skywalker]

Heck, I've only seen about 10 movies in a theater this year so they'd all have to make my top ten list.

Out of Movie Hole's list I've only seen the following:

BATMAN BEGINS
IN GOOD COMPANY
REVENGE OF THE SITH
SIN CITY

And Smitty's right, IN GOOD COMPANY is a 2004 movie, though I just saw it for the first time a couple of weeks ago on HBO.

[Quorthon]

My top films are:

Batman Begins
History of Violence
Sin City
(all awesome)

King Kong
Episode III
(great, but problematic)

Derailed
(but I didn't see that many, 7/10 is what I'd give this)

I was sure I'd seen more movies than this... I mean, more good movies.

[ZapRowsdower]

I won't be making my top 10 until the end of the year.

[Bartwald]

I will wait, too. Gotta see Serenity before the year ends.

1. Sin City
2. The 40-Year-Old Virgin
3. Batman Begins
4. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
5. Cinderella Man
6. The Devil’s Rejects
7. Hide and Seek
8. Hostage
9. Mr. & Mrs. Smith
10. Star Wars: Episode III

I was wondering about this one....I have it on my rental list but haven't heard much about it, good or bad. And I didn't find it in Review Hell.

Its a good film in my opinion thou I'd keep it on your rental list. I blind bought this.

Smitty Man!! Change thee Avatar please. The page never stops loading;

"Transferring data from csproxy.service.mirror-image.net..."

[ZapRowsdower]

I'm actually not going to be posting these until around January or February. Too many end-of-the-year releases are being widely released around this time (Brokeback Mountain, Transamerica, the Matador, Memoirs of a Geisha, etc.)

And finally, Term, I have changed my avatar.
