For some people, 2008 is already gone. I’ve still got a few hours, and I’m spent the last bit reading various blogs “Worst Movies of 2008″ and decided that I would do the same.

But I’ve already seen it, so there is no point in adding it to a list of movies that I want to see this year, now is there?
