My favorites:
Silent Hill
A Scanner Darkly
The Fountain
The Departed was just an excuse for Jack to take the asshole aspect of his persona to its highest peak. The only thing that saves that movie is that it's easily better than the Hong Kong crime film it's based off of.
Time for a change

I see alot of you mentioning A Scanner Darkly but either snubbing or not mentioning Fast Food Nation. While I didn't think Fast Food Nation was that, bad, I can completely understand where you're coming from.
Although, in terms of Linklater movies I'd put Fast Food way above some of his real stinkers like School of Rock and The Newton Boys.

PS. I also declare shennanigans on Cow, since there is no chance in hell he A) saw all of those movies, and b) thought that many of them were crap when there are a good handful of movies in his list that are actually outstanding.

I loved Rocky Balboa, Munich (not sure if this came out at the end of 2005 or the beginning of 2006), Silent Hill and Thank You For Smoking. I watch so many movies in a year I usually forget a ton of them.
I thought Borat and The Science of Sleep were good. Was Pan's Labyrinth 2006? If it was that was pretty good too. If not...IT SUCKED.
Borat was shit.
