Top Movies of 2006
This list was a lot easier to make since I actually only went to three movies in all of 2006- X3, POTC:DMC and Flags of Our Fathers. We rented a handful more, such as V For Vendetta which was excellent; Ultraviolet was so terrible I stopped watching after 20 minutes (18 minutes too long); and Transamerica was a cool, quirky, sweet movie in the vein of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert. But the best movie I saw this year was:
The World's Fastest Indian
Which might have come out in 2005. It's the true story of an Invercargill, New Zealand bloke who modified a 1920 Indian motorcycle till it was, indeed, the fastest in the world.
Speaking of Invercargill, I hope they make a movie about that Swanson guy. He, or possibly she, is best known for playing hockey. In fact, that's ALL that's known about this mysterious kiwi. That, and (s)he gives old hoodies to the Invercargill thrift shop.
