As a part of my film hobby, for the past four years I've made my own top ten best films list of the year. The films range for foreign films, to indie films, to some big money making films. I tend to see anywhere from 60 to 90 films in a year that I use to judge my top ten list, which usually is finalized after the Academy Awards. I usually add after the top ten list 1 to 3 honorable mentions that could not quit make the top ten list. So here they are starting back to 2007.
