The ones I recommend:



Lost in Translation
Agh, I cannot possibly recommend this movie enough. It's got everything I want to see: comedy, deeper philosophical understanding, perfect music, amazing cinematography and atmosphere, Bill Murray working well in a mostly serious movie, scenes that actually make me feel like I'm there singing karaoke with the characters (or at least wish), and most importantly: Scarlett Johansson. Woman is gorgeous.

Wild Tigers I Have Known
Beautiful art film about a young boy who develops a crush on a 16-year-old guy. Strange in the fact that it's difficult to tell whether or not the scenes depicted are actually taking place or if they're just in the main character's mind. A lot of darkly sweetly sad dialogue ("If I drown, will you drown with me?") and crazy pretty imagery, trippy masturbation scenes and one rather dominant plot point in which the main character dresses up as a girl and visits his crush's girlfriend. Wouldn't recommend it if that stuff makes you uneasy, though.

Ah. Guitar is pretty good, albeit a little shaky (for lack of a better word) at the beginning.
EDIT:
Acapella cover of Maps by The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Oh my god.

Azn's Falling Slowly cover.

Wow. David Byrne once said that "the better a singer's voice is, the harder it is to believe what they're saying." If that's true, than this is the most believable singer I've ever heard.

Alone in Kyoto
Air
Talkie Walkie
(also I am reminded that I still haven't gotten around to watching Lost in Translation!...what?)
My favorite movie. The scene where they've got that song is absolutely beautiful. Hell, that whole movie is absolutely beautiful.
Gray Skies Turn Blue
MxPx
Panic
Favorite films of '08
Definitely, Maybe came out in 2008. Add that to my list. That movie was fjorking awesome and I have a crush on Isla Fisher as a result.
What are you listening to?
