    I've seen them all (but the trilogy) - the only ones I didn't care for....

    Donnie Darko
    A History of Violence

    I'm probably one of five people in the world, that hasn't see ''The Rings.''

        I really liked A History of Violence, for whatever reason. I didn't think it was all that special, but I love Ed Harris and Vigo Mortensen when they are in the right roles.

        Donnie Darko is just fun to watch. I have seen it a few times and I still don't think I even know what the fuck it's about.

        I love the LOTR trilogy. Haven't seen them in a while but I enjoyed them thoroughly when they first came out.

        I think Memento might be my favorite movie of the decade, but I'd have to watch it again. Guy Pearce is one of my favorite actors. Reminds me I forgot The Proposition - absolutely one of my favorite movies of the dcade.

        Also reminds me, I forgot to put Snatch in the previous list, as Guy Ritchie is one of my favorite directors. I like these Guys.

          Same.

          I shouldn't judge it without a 2nd viewing, since I made the mistake of watching it 5 minutes after Memento. I went with a strange, but all around decent trio that night - Ghost World, Memento, Donnie Darko, so I was a bit confused at times.

          Darko will eventually get another view.

              I'm going to go with a movie I've been hyping up nonstop since I saw it, so why stop now?

              The Station Agent - It falls under the underrated category. One of my favorite films of the decade. I really.....really fucking love this movie.

              The Interview (Hugo Weaving) - Okay, so it was made in 1998, but this thing gets no mention whatsoever here in the states. It's an aussie film, something like ''Usual Suspects,'' but done better. If you have to netflix it, or buy it - it's worth it. Hugo Weavings best performance, in my opinion. Highly, highly underrated.

                The Prestige was also very underrated.

                      Ignoring some of the independent movies that will almost always be underrated because of lack of publicity, I'd say Big Fish.

                      I thought it was great and was always surprised considering the cast was pretty good plus it was a Tim Burton film.

                          No, I think it was produced and distributed by Columbia.

                            The Felon with Val Kilmer is a kick ass movie that no one talks about. Go see it.
