Movies listed below are my favorite English-language ones released during first half of 2008. The ones I don't want to forget when I post year-end lists about 7 months from now. Movies listed under "I" are potential Top 10 films. II: Potential runner-ups. III: Honorable Mention. Ranking within categories could change after second viewings and comparison with movies yet to come out. A mid-year list of foreign-language films will be posted in a few days.
