Mulholland Drive!

[Chango]

Lord of the Rings.

I can't decide which one of the three though. All three blew me away.

I'll break from all the illustrious Oscar nominees and go with Star Trek. It may not be "the best" or whatever, but it was MY own personal #1 and suited me down to the ground.

I like a good period-piece drama, but in general I don't have highfalutin tastes. Other top movies for me from this decade would be:

UP
Iron Man
Kung Fu Panda
Watchmen
300
V for Vendetta
Underworld
Pride & Prejudice
the LOTR trilogy
The Day After Tomorrow
The Bourne movies
Miracle
XXX
Blade
Reign of Fire
Pirates of the Caribbean
Gladiator
Chocolat

I'm so pedestrian and geeky.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

No Country for Old Men

[KRAMERCAT]

He was a quiet man.

[Mopac1980]

Knocked Up, I thought it was one of the most funniest movies I've ever seen and I loved the character development they've had in all of the characters and you've felt like you've gotten to know all of the characters in the entire film

[Lakewooder]

Brokeback
