Submit your five favorite films from this year and in a week I will give you a top ten. IMDb dates will be used.

The point system is as follows

1st Place-5 points
2nd Place-4 points
3rd Place-3.5 points
4th Place-3 points
5th Place-2.5 points

There will be no restrictions on short films. A minimum of three films must be listed. You may edit your post freely up until the time that the voting is closed, which will be in about a week. I will give at least 24 hours warning before tallying votes.

You may begin now.

Sometimes the three film minimum seems unfortunate. The Godfather so totally owns this that it almost seems a disservice to it to mention anything else.

1. The Godfather


2. Aguirre: The Wrath of God
3. The Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant

TOY STORY 3 - Solid entertainment of the Pixar brand, but an unnecessary sequel that adds nothing to the story.
TETRO - I applaud Coppola for making a genuinely strange movie. When it works, it works.
CHÉRI - Average period piece, but worth seeing for Michelle Pfeiffer's incredibly acting - and body.
