Top Ten Movies of 2006 to Sleep Through
 
CAPTION: While most reviewers only include movies that have kept them awake in their Top Ten lists, movies that lull viewers to sleep actually do more to promote the health of the audience.

It is with that public service in mind that the Soporifically Oriented Filmmakers Association [SOFA, inventor of the genre that puts the audience to sleep, presents its first annual list of the Top Ten Movies to Sleep Through. They have left out of consideration their own independent feature, WebcamMurder.com, even though WebcamMurder.com was the only film of 2006 made with the audience’s need for a nap as its raison d’être.

Here, then, are the ten next best movies of the year to sleep through:

1. Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan
Movies with titles longer than four words or 48 characters are often able to induce drowsiness during the title sequence alone. Borat has the added advantage that the audience already knows who is number 4 prostitute in all Kazakhstan, who gets thrown down the well and who has filed versus who has so far only threatened suit. No need to stay awake here. Good job, Borat!

2. Mission: Impossible III
It used to be that a Tom Cruise starrer kept at least some of the audience awake. The intensity, the explosions, the subliminal messages against psychiatry… But this sequel to a sequel couldn’t compete against Tom’s hidden (and rumored-to-be Chinese) baby followed by the wedding that included surprise invitee Brooke Shields and surprise snub Oprah Winfrey. The movie’s twists and turns are a snooze by comparison.

3. Letters From Iwo Jima
Your dreams may have muted colors at this one, but the good news is pale dreams are more restful.

4. The Da Vinci Code
Called “over long, pretentious, sometimes boring” by a reviewer who loved it, Da Vinci Code bridges the gap for people still under the misconception that they’ll get more out of a movie if they watch it.

5. Apocalypto
Can give you violent dreams, but you’ll also learn an ancient Mayan dialect through sleep teaching.

6. Babel
The plot is like a dream anyway, with really nice parts that don’t make sense as a whole, SOFA was told by people who managed to keep their eyes open. No need to worry you’ll miss out on anything when you drift off into your own disconnected fragments.

7. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest
Non-stop action has the same effect as non-stop inaction (like the non-stop nothing in SOFA’s WebcamMurder.com): numbing the mind.

8. The Holiday
Spice up your own dreams of romance with the good parts that you almost wake up to.

9. The Breakup
Many viewers did stay awake through the shorter TMZ.com version, however.

10. Happy Feet
Satisfied audience members report waking up with a spring in their step.
