Since I've seen a ton of movies lately, I felt I should to revise this post to more fully reflect the movies of '06.
So here is my updated list of my 10 favorite movies of 2006 (in alphabetical order):
Casino Royale
Children of Men
The Departed
The Descent (surprising choice, I know)
An Inconvenient Truth
Jackass: Number Two
Little Miss Sunshine
Pan's Labyrinth
Thank You For Smoking
United 93

Also, here are my picks in the main categories for Sunday's Oscars:
Best Picture: want The Departed, think Little Miss Sunshine
Best Director: want and think Martin Scorsese
Best Actor: want and think Forest Whitaker (although if DiCaprio had been nominated for The Departed instead of Blood Diamond, he'd get my vote)
Best Actress: want Meryl Streep (because I haven't seen The Queen), think Helen Mirren
Best Supporting Actor: want Djimon Hounsou, think Alan Arkin
Best Supporting Actress: want Adrianna Barraza, think Jennifer Hudson
