The Films of 2008: Combined MCN + indieWIRE Lists

I've combined the Movie City News tabulation of year-end critic lists (Dec 25 version) with the indieWIRE Critics' Poll to come up with a more comprehensive tally of critical favourites for 2008.

This is a dumb list for three - make that four - reasons.
1. There are a number of critics whose lists have been included in both the Movie City News and the indieWIRE polls, so their votes are counted twice.
2. Movie City News gives 10 points for a first-place movie, while indieWIRE gives 15. A tenth-place mention gets 1 point from MCN, but 5 from iW. So the indieWIRE list gets weighted more heavily.
3. This is not the final MCN scoreboard.
4. Who cares, anyhow?

Still, for the little it's worth...
