The chaiwallah has done it again!
I saw a quite few films that came out in 2008, most of them pretty good. (Of course I do not go to movies that I don't think I'll like, so that helps the percentages.) These are a few movies that I enjoyed but that did not make my list: Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Snow Angels, Pineapple Express, Burn After Reading, Tropic Thunder, W.
So, now to the list.

ITA with this list - Slumdog was amazing. Glad to see it win the awards at the British Film Festival. And I'm glad I'm not the only one who laughed - albeit guiltily - at Forgetting Sarah Marshall!
Unfortunately, I've seen but a handful of the contenders. I am glad, however, to see that both In Bruges and WALL-E made your personal list

Agree with the list almost to a point. With two small exceptions - I'd switch places with The Visitor and In Bruges. The Visitor is so moving. I hope Jenkins wins the Oscar.
If we're posting top 5 lists here, mine would be:
5. Milk
4. Pineapple Express
3. Slumdog Millionaire
2. The Dark Knight
1. Wall-E
Although when I finally get to see "The Wrestler," I know that will find a way on to this list.

5. The Dark Knight
4. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
3. Gran Torino
2. Doubt
1. Slumdog
