Instead of updating my post of several pages, I decided to make this final thread for 2005. I'll probably see The New World and Munich soon, which will be updated. This one is updated with a great film I highly suggest to you all. It'll be on the Discovery Channel tomorrow at 8 PM. 1) Last Days 2) Broken Flowers 3) No Direction Home: Bob Dylan 4) Grizzly Man 5) Match Point 6) Jarhead 7) Syriana 8) Batman Begins

Of the ones you have mentioned Don V. and mind you I have not seen many of them, I would say that Last Days, No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, Syriana, Jarhead, Crash, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Kingdom Of Heaven, Sin City, Wedding Crashers, Star Wars III: Revenge Of The Sith, Four Brothers and The Interpreter were the best movies of 2005. Out of all the movies made in 2005 (imo) the best of the lot was Syriana.

What did you guys think of Walk the Line? I noticed that wasn't mentioned in any of the previous lists, and I enjoyed this movie very much.
There is no theory of evolution. Just a list of creatures Chuck Norris has allowed to live.

I haven't watched any of the 2005 movies you listed yet but "Brokeback Mountain". Believe me, folks, this is one of the most lyrical, intense, beautiful love story I've ever seen on screen. I do hope that none of you will be biased because of the gay issue. It'd be such a stupid thing to do. This movie is about love that happens to be between two men. An impossible love because of social pressures and personal fears. A movie about lost chances and the tragic solitude of surviving instead of living. Outstandingly well acted by Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall, I hope they both are going to be given an Oscar. Great scenarios. Touching music score. I'm absolutely in love with this movie. I read the short novel too. But the movie is much better. Please, go watch it and then give your comment.
I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)

Completely agreed. I feel like at this point its being biased less because of the gay aspect of it and more because its the favorite on Oscar night, although it may be a combination of both.
I dream in widescreen.
