Tells me that you eat whatever is put on your plate if you think Slumdog is on par with the other four moveis on your list.

Artie Lange's Beer League or BORAT.

Over the past 12 years, I have been to the movies no more than 7 times. I can remember seeing:

--Borat
--Beer League
--Titanic
--Shrek 2
--The Departed
--Showtime (w/De Niro and Eddie Murphy, sucked!)
--Tropic Thunder

Actually, my point is none of them are great movies IMHO.

I havent seen No Country yet, Slumdog was a big letdown for me, if they were going for that foreign feel it didnt have it, reminded me of watching The Bench Warmers for some reason. The Departed and Million Dollar Babies were good, but MDB for me was only "really" good because the expected Hollywood ending wasnt there.

I didnt like Departed all that much for some reason.

I thought No Country was incredible.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was a riot, definately was not expecting it to be so goddamn funny.
