Best of 2007

I blatantly stole this idea from Greg's blog, which I am absolutely alright with and have nothing better to come up with on my own today.

Book of the Year
I read a bunch of books this year, and it really comes down to two: Rant and Crooked Little Vein. Both books were absolutely incredible, but in the end I have to say that Rant by Chuck Palahniuk beats out Warren's first novel.

Comic Book of the Year
I will break this down into subcategories.
Best On-Going Series: Fables by Bill Willingham.
Best Vertigo Book: Cairo. Even if you do not read comics, I think people should pick this up. It's different.
Best Mindblowing Thing to Come Out This Year: League of Extraordinary Gentlemen: The Black Dossier by Alan Moore. As with the first two LXG books, you could spend years studying each panel and dissecting where each little thing comes from. As with the other books, this one does not just present itself in comic form. Moore writes one part in the form of an unfinished Shakespeare play, and some other interesting stuff tossed in there as well.

Best Movie of the Year

I think this one is pretty easy for me and you should all be guessing it right now. 300. I am sure some of you will disagree, but this is my list so screw you. Also though, Superbad and Knocked Up were both hilarious and very close to be being the best.

Alright, that's about all I got, anyone care to share theirs?
