I love lists. Top ten lists, top fifty lists, whatever, I can't get enough of them. So I thought I would venture into the list world with my own set of lists. What up. I can do it too, Roger Ebert.
Keep in mind, these are all items that I experienced for the first time in '08. They may not have actually been released in said year.
Top 5 Books of 2008:
1. The Weight of Glory- C.S. Lewis
2. What's So Amazing About Grace- Phillip Yancey
3. All-Star Superman- Grant Morrison & Frank Quietly (Yeah, I read comic books. Please don't judge me.)
4. Surprised by Hope- N.T. Wright
5. Hate That Cat- Sharon Creech
Top 5 Films of 2008:
1. "The Dark Knight"
2. "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button"
3. "Juno"
4. "No Country for Old Men"
5. "Wall-E"
Worst Film of 2008:
"Wanted"- I felt dirty when I left this film. This was not only the worst film of '08, it was the worst film of the ot's. Seriously.
Top 5 Albums of 2008:
1. "The Boy With No Name"- Travis
2. "1000 Kisses"- Patty Griffin
3. "Volume One"- She & Him
4. "The Bright Sadness"- Charlie Hall
5. "Where the Light Is"- John Mayer
6. "Viva La Vida"- Coldplay
I know there are 6 in the "Best Albums" category. All six were awesome. Listen to them.
Welp, those are my lists. Hope you enjoy.
