Alright, the summer movie season of '08 is about to wrap so it's time to take a brief look at the best and worst of the year.
Of the eight 2008 releases I have seen, here's how I'd rank 'em:
The Great
1. THE DARK KNIGHT
2. WALL-E
3. FORGETTING SARAH MARSHALL
The Good
4. CLOVERFIELD
The 'Meh'
5. PINEAPPLE EXPRESS
6. IRON MAN
The Bad
7. INDIANA JONES AND THE KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL
The Ugly
8. HANCOCK
There you have it. And yes, IRON MAN was terribly overrated, CRYSTAL was a pile of rank dog shit, and THE DARK KNIGHT was everything I had hoped it would be.
As for the rest of 2008, the only event marked on my calendar so far is QUANTUM OF SOLACE, which has unfortunately just been pushed back a week to November 14. 'Til then (maybe), in the spirit of the Olympics, zài jiàn (and zài jiàn to that god awful disgrace of a country as well)!

I'm shocked that you've put Indy 4 so low. It was a fun ride I felt.
