Today I will give you my opinion about (what I think are) the 10 best movies released this year.

  1. in Bruges: a assassin movie, in the city of  (Belgium). I put this movie on the first place because I really like the conversations, and the almost impossible things happened in this movie.
  2. loft: this is a Belgian production. It’s a very nice movie. maybe me and some friends will have our own loft later (but hopefully without dead women) ;-)
  3. Madagascar 2: an extremely funny movie, especially the penguins!
  4. 10.000BC:  a movie about ancient times, but not very authentic. very nice made though
  5. hancock: This is a real superhero movie! erm, ok, maybe he’s not a hero, but he can do some awesome things ;) I really enjoyed watching it.
  6. Wanted: Some dude who wants to become an assassin. quite nice :)
  7. You Don’t Mess with the Zohan: just a funny movie..
  8. wall-E: This isn’t my favourite movie, but I enjoyed it though (for a dull movie, that is)
  9. Persepolis: just a nice movie..
  10. The Day the Earth Stood Still: quite a nice movie :-)

  1. Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (Windows): Simply the best editor on Windows! If you use this software, you know what I’m talking about. Be sure to also check out the ‘Source Code Outliner Power Toy’ (#)
  2. Fedora 10 (Linux): My favorite operating system. But I don’t think Fedora is suitable for beginners. I think they should check out Ubuntu 8.10 (#).
  3. MySQL Workbench 5.0 (Windows / Linux): A very good tool if you need to design big databases. It’s free software, it can export your scheme to SQL code. so: MySQL workbench >> Visio ;)
  4. Netbeans 6.5 (Windows / Linux): Netbeans is not only for Java developers anymore! with this release you can use this software to program PHP, C++, java, …, …. And it looks nice too now.. This is my favourite editor on Linux.
  5. Opera 9.6 (Windows / Linux): I use Opera everywhere, on my desktop, on my laptop, on my cellphone, … . It is just a robust browser with lots of options, it is the fastest browser, it has a great rendering engine, and it’s quite awesome!
  6. Amarok 2 (Linux): I think that this is the best music player in the world, and not only for Linux..
  7. VLC (Windows / Linux): My favourite movie player, it plays like almost every format you have, it is leightweighted, and it just works (without all the shizzle you never need).
  8. OpenOffice.org 3 (Windows / Linux): With this new release OpenOffice can open the new format of Microsoft, so that’s nice when you work on a Linux machine..  I think that about everyone should check out this free software..
  9. Silverlight 2 (Windows / ”Linux -> moonlight“):  It didn’t convince me when I saw the first demos, but now I am working a little bit with it, and I like it a lot now.
  10. Adobe Creative Suite 4 (Windows): Just a new release of this software :)

  1. Belgian politics: we have a complicated country.. and I believe that this is a reason why this country is hard to run. But this year was a really really hard year! Prime minister Leterme offered 2 times the resignation of the federal government. And that’s why I give them the award ‘epic fail of the year 2008′! ;)
  2. world economy: I think everybody knows what I’m talking about.. Yesterday, I found a good presentation about how this crisis started. (#)
  3. oil price: with a top price of over 140$ / barrel, all prices got way too high! but luckely the price is back on a more normal value now.
  4. Tom Boonen: Cocaine, car accidents, you name it, he did it ^^
  5. Michel Fourniret: he won’t rape any children anymore! the sick bastard is in jail now.
  6. olympic games: protest before the games started, fake opening ceremony, …, … I call it a fail
  7. peace treaty gaza – Israel: the treaty was one day over, and they were already shooting rockets at each other..
  8. Geneviève Lhermitte (dutch): this is an almost fail: this crazy bitch is now in prison, after she killed all of her children, but changes were that she would get internated. luckily that didn’t happen (thank you jury!)
  9. Silke’s blog!: because she failed my blog too ^^
  10. this blog!: because I don’t have the visitors count I want to have..
