I've put up our first poll at the Prerogative website (scroll down a bit; it's on the right). The question is this: Which of 2006's top grossing films is the best? A few of my favorites from the year are in there. I would ultimately choose "Pirates of the Caribbean" or "Casino Royale," though I'd like to rewatch a few to be sure. It reminds me that I'm considering a "my favorite films of 2006" list, which is easier now that I've caught a few more on DVD. Lots of the critical favorites — "The Queen," "Children of Men," "Pan's Labyrinth," etc. — have yet to become available via theater or Blockbuster, so I may end up having to revise the list.
What do you think makes a movie worthy of accolades? Is it enough to be entertaining, or do you look for something with a message? Are you most interested in the artistic and creative quality, the actors, the story? Or everything?
