Best of 2006-lists and iconmeme
I know I promised the review of Little Miss Sunshine I mailed to Jelle, but I'm too exhausted to translate it right now, so instead I offer you 'my favorites'-lists of 2006 to agree with or discuss. Plus at the end the iconmeme I stole from

1 -- Reply to this post!
2 -- I will tell you which of *YOUR* icons I like the most.
3 -- Then post this to your own journal using YOUR favorite icon. (or just reply with your favorite, because I'm curious, but don't want to force a meme down your throat:)
4 -- That's it! :D
My favorite icon: because I had so much fun shaving George and getting rid of the 'stache of Doom :-)
The review will follow Friday. I'll even include Jelle's opinion to make up for the lateness:)

Reply redone in a nutshell:
Songs: ♥ Bones, Do You Want To and Here It Goes Again. ;D
Films: ♥ Brokeback Mountain, Match Point and Inside Man. Must see Babel, TransAmerica, Jarhead and Syriana now.
Aunt Mary rented The Lake House from netflix and let us watch it the other night. I must agree. Didn't make much sense, but it was indeed, very good. =D
Icon: After much fretting (good thing I don't have a plus account, then I'd be fretting over 100 fabulous icons, instead of just 15!) I chose this as my favorite. =D And I'll have to snag this meme to use on everyone else. =D
My favorite icon of yours (just to throw in my two cents, because I'm like that. ;D) has to be the kiss icon, but I never admitted that. =D

I will see if I can get you some more Franz Ferdinand, because they are of the awesome.
I think you'd like most films on my list, except maybe Broken Flowers. Let me know if you watch any of them. I liked The Lake House, because through it all, Sandra and Keanu (and their characters:) just felt so comfortable together.
My favorite of your icons is this one:
because Christian is just so pretty and scary and wow:)
There you go, that wasn't too hard, was it? :-p Especially for you *points up*:)
