    Hi there

    A happy new year to everyone and a big thank you to the whole team behind whatthemovie. It's a great site and a lot of fun.
    I'd also like to thank the posters for the time they invested in searching for the right stills. I think the new year offers a good opportunity to do a best-of-2008 post.
    So, here are my personal favorites (excluding my own uploads of course). I listed my favourites in some categories I chose to cover the different aspects of uploading a still.
    If someone can tell me how to link directly to the pictures I will add those links later. --> Thank's for the answer, I changed it.

    Must!
    In this category I have some stills which IMHO are an absolute must.
    1184 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/1184
    3314 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3314
    4175 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/4175
    6209 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/6209
    8125 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/8125

    Crucial Moment
    In this category I incorporated some stills which capture twists, turning points or other crucial moments of the movie.
    1023 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/1023
    1943 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/1943
    2794 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/2794
    3210 One of my absolute favourites. http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3210
    3932 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3932
    7947 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/7947

    Choice
    There are some very well chosen stills which capture essentials of the movie or the general work of the director, so you
    can solve them quite easily even if you hadn't seen the movie.
    287 Director's trademark http://whatthemovie.com/shot/287
    1706 Perfectly captures the work of the director http://whatthemovie.com/shot/1706
    2932 All you need is in the picture http://whatthemovie.com/shot/2932
    3078 Beautiful picture and very typical for the director. Another absolute favourite of mine. http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3078
    10643 Also classifies for categoy Must! http://whatthemovie.com/shot/10643

    Beautiful
    The name says it. In this category I listed the stills which I thought to be beautiful pictures on their own.
    493 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/493
    4361 see also 4403. http://whatthemovie.com/shot/4361
    4768 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/4768
    5180 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/5180
    10271 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/10271

    Disguise
    Some stills are like a wolf in sheep's clothing. They try to set you on the wrong track.
    717 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/717
    1180 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/1180
    2223 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/2223

    6261 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/6261
    9347 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/9347

    Picture Says It All
    Sometimes the answer is right before your nose.
    985 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/985
    3222 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3222
    2013 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/2013
    3881 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3881

    Scary
    I am no big fan of horror movies, so the stills in this category are mostly scary-funny.
    3822 qualifies also for category Must! http://whatthemovie.com/shot/3822
    5089 very scary;-) http://whatthemovie.com/shot/5089
    7398 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/7398
    8713 again almost a Must! http://whatthemovie.com/shot/8713
    8720 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/8720

    Interesting
    Puzzling, surprising, surreal, absurd... You name it.

    7749 http://whatthemovie.com/shot/7749
