District 9 is a rececent favorite of mine.

Other movies that I've watched and enjoyed recently:

Devil's Rejects (Rob Zombie was very good at music but even better as a director)

Pink Floyd's The Wall- Lost count on how many times I've watched this.

Monster's Inc.- I still think this is the best animated film to date.

Funny People- Adam Sandler is hit or miss but I thought this film performed well above expectations.

Food Inc.- Disturbing but everyone should see this movie.

The Wrestler- Mickey Rourke finally returns as a legitimate actor.

The Ninth Configuration- Hard to find but one of the best movies every. Dark comedy with great dialog written by William Peter Blatty.

Where the Buffalo Roam- Bill Murray portrays Hunter S. Thompson so much better than the lame attempt by Johnny Depp.
