As we've done for 10 years now, our editorial team has compiled their list of the Best Movies & TV of 2009. Over the next few days we'll be publishing a number of our genre lists in this space, but we'll start with the basics: the top 100 DVDs of 2009. Agree? Disagree? Post a comment and let us know. Our first 10 of the 100:

  1. Slumdog Millionaire: The Oscar winner for Best Picture centers around a young Indian man competing on a game show with the highest possible stakes
  2. Gran Torino: Clint Eastwood directed and stars in this riveting drama about racial tolerance
  3. Milk:  Sean Penn won an Oscar for his portrayal of San Francisco politician Harvey Milk
  4. Mad Men: Season 2: AMC's period piece is a two-time Emmy winner for Outstanding Drama
  5. The Hangover: The raunchy comedy was one of the surprise box-office hits of the year
  6. Star Trek: J.J. Abrams' reinvention of the fan-favorite franchise soars to new heights
  7. True Blood: The Complete First Season: Compelling HBO series about the vampires among us, and definitely not for the Twilight crowd
  8. The Wrestler: Mickey Rourke won accolades for his depiction of one man's professional and personal comeback
  9. Up: Great as we've come to expect from Pixar; charming in ways we didn't expect
  10. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince: The sixth film of the series is the darkest yet, as Harry and his friends confront He Who Must Not Be Named
