Whoever wants to leave Almost Famous out of that list has just no clue whatsoever. But Bareback Mountain? Molin Rouge? Give me a break.

Almost famous is nice, but shouldn't be found in any list of best movies of the year, let alone decade. Agree on Moulin Rouge, but can't say anything about Brokeback (haven't seen it, but surely Mart will come to the rescue :P), although it did manage to win a few Oscars.  ;)

5) City of God
10) Finding Nemo
These two deserve it too.
Finding Nemo deserves to die.  In a fire.  Worst Pixar movie EVAH.

Clearly they wanted to avoid being flamed, harassed, and boycotted by Marti and his ilk.  I mean, seriously, do YOU want to have to suffer through a "LEAVE BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN ALONE!!!!!11111" YouTube video? :bleeding:

the idea of having a 10 best list for a ten year period is just stupid. minimum of twenty. there are a lot of great films in the last decade.

I agree with a few movies on each list I see here, but not any whole list.

I've been trying to come up with a list like this for work, but I'm being too indecisive. I think I haven't bee critical enough recently.

definite classics for the era though off the top of my head:

Spirited Away
Let The Right One In
There Will Be Blood
The Fall
C.R.A.Z.Y
My Winnipeg
Old Boy (and other Vengeance movies)
2046
Downfall
George Washington
All The Real Girls
No Country For Old Men
King Of Kong
Tekkonkinkreet
Vicky Christina Barcelona
Memento
Undertow
Grizzly Man
The Aura
Japon
Adam's Apples
The Beat my Heart Skipped
It's Not me I swear
City Of God
The Incredibles

probably some more I'm obviously missing
:p

The Brain

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I'm quite disappointed that Pirates starring Evan Stone, Janine Lindemulder, Tommy Gunn, Jenaveve Jolie, and Carmen Luvana was left off of the list.  :(

There Will Be Blood was crap.

I'm gonna attribute this to you still being hopped up on drugs.

It may have trumped ET as the most over-rated movie ever.
