I've been a Leo fan since ''This Boy's Life,'' who at such a young age, gave Deniro a run for his money. I knew from that moment, the kid had many bright moments ahead - and this is one of them.

Great movies so far, Nuk. Looking forward to the rest.

3:10 to Yuma is so underrated, I saw that in the movies when it came out freshman year and it blew me away, I'm not a fan of westerns really at all, either. (wish I could have thanked you twice for the Ghost World reference)

No homo on the thanks for Before Sunset, the first and the second are Ethan Hawke's #1 and #2 best movies he's ever been in (Training Day and Before the Devil Knows You're Dead withheld, of course)

Anyone else find it hilarious that Nuk couldn't even come up with a top 10 of 2009 so he did an entire decade?

This is one of those rare situations, where one single performance carried a movie which wouldn't even be in my top 50 of the decade, if not for Daniel Day Lewis.. That's just how fucking strong his performance is. I really wasn't all that impressed with the film itself, or the supporting cast - and I didn't mind one damn bit.

This review says it all - ''If Day-Lewis isn't front and center, the film drags with themes such as oil vs. religion, and greed is always around...''

I'm fairly certain you're going to give me a little hell about #1.

Looking back now, I should have made this a top 20 instead, because there's so many great movies that won't make it, like ''Ghost World'' and ''Almost Famous,'' just to name two.

Liking this so far. Very intrigued as to what #1 will be now that you've made it sound so questionable.

My personal favorite from this decade would be City of God, which I expect to see somewhere near the top of your list.

I wonder if Casino Royale or American beauty make it.

children of men maybe? it was a required taste

That'd be in my top 3, not sure if Nuke liked it or not haven't talked to him about it. That's one where you either love the hell out of it or think it was stupid.

I thought it was an amazingly shot movie with a very compelling story, but Nuke may disagree.

Children of Men is easily up there with my favorites of the decade. (and ever)

#10



One of my top 10 favorites of 2006. Unfortunately, I feel that it got overlooked for the most part, due to films like ''The Departed,'' ''Babel,'' ''Children of Men,'' and of course Clint Eastwood hogging the spotlight. Fortunately, this movie was so much more than just wanting to be in the spotlight. I just recently found out that both Roger Ebert and Rolling Stone had it at #6 of 2006, which is a pleasant surprise.

90% from Rotten Tomatoes. A review that says it all - ''This is not a film you go to for enjoyment, but because you have a duty to endure it.''

I'm sure a lot of you have this one higher on your favorites, but to be honest with you, I didn't even have ''The Departed'' as the #1 movie in 2006. The movie I had rated higher, will be showing up in about two more spots (and I still stand behind it.) That's not taking anything away from ''The Departed,'' because honestly, what's the difference between a 4 star movie, and a 4 star movie?

Brokeback Mountain is gunna be #1.

(No Country should be coming up soon, too.)
