Best movie of 2006 goes to....................

I liked Children of Men.

i'm a cynical jerk that hates everything and i watched it twice. great movie. everyone did an amazing job.

I haven't seen the movie yet. I might be watching it this saturday if I don't have anything to do.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Outcomes - read about these guys, where they faught and how and you will appreciate it more.

"In March 1995 an Executive Outcomes team went to the aid of the rebel-beleaguered Kono diamond mines in Sierra Leone. The force was assembled and in action by April, taking just 11 days to drive the rebels away from the capital and, using helicopter gunships, chase them out of the diamonds fields. The most interesting aspect of all this, however, is perhaps the method of payment. The chronically impoverished government of Sierra Leone apparently paid for these services by giving a company called Branch Energy the concession to operate the Koidu diamond field (the Sierra Leone government retains a 60-percent ownership). Reputedly, Branch Energy is owned by Strategic Resources Group, a British company based in the Bahamas, that in turn owned Executive Outcomes. It seems that the firm was able to barter its services for large shares of a client nation's natural resources and commodities. According to a British government evaluation reported by Inter Press Service: "On present showing, Executive Outcomes will become ever richer and more potent, capable of exercising real power, even to the extent of keeping military regimes in being. If it continues to expand at the present rate, its influence in sub-Saharan Africa could become crucial."

i saw this movie twice too

Thanks buddy.

this was an excellent flick
i wonder why it made so little money?
Box Office: $37,595,098
thats not alot compared to other movies

another movie of 06 that was good is the illusionist
..conflict diamonds, dirt cheap.

havent seen it, but it does look like a good one

I want to check it out, i heard its good.

I need to check it out.

Haven't seen it yet either

It isn't out here but I hope it is before the Oscars as it is getting tipped and I like to see the films before the awards.

i'll check it out!

That is one I really want to see...my favorite critic (who has a PHD in horror fiction) called it the Citizen Kane of fantasy horror. I enjoyed Devil's Backbone so it sounds like I will enjoy this one too.

Seen it a while ago, it's one of the better movies i've seen this year, even while i am not into fantasy. Btw, the kid, her mother and stepfather dies.

Have to check out Blood Diamond.
