You'll note from the first list that I have changed my mind rather whimsically. Still, that's art, innit?

What's wrong with KBP1?

I had been waiting to see NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN before I updated my list because I was assuming from the large amount of rave reviews that it would be on my list. It didn't make it, but here's the updated list anyway:

In no particular order:

TRAFFIC
INTO THE WILD
THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST
GONE BABY GONE
THE BOURNE IDENTITY
WALK THE LINE
MYSTIC RIVER
THE DEPARTED
MUNICH
GANGS OF NEW YORK

[Johnboy007]

Felt the need to update this:

In the order that they come to me...

Casino Royale
The Bourne Supremacy
Das Leben der Anderen
Black Hawk Down
LOTR: The Two Towers
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl
Batman Begins
Borat
Munich
Star Wars III

That was harder than I expected. Give me just about any other decade and I could do one fairly easily. I expect that the new Indiana Jones, Batman, and Star Trek are very good candidates to make it in.

Glad to hear it's good, because it's a film I've been thinking about checking out. Will rent it.

In alphabetical order:

ALL ABOUT LILY CHOU-CHOU (2001)

Must add to this list the 2000 Japanese film EUREKA, which I saw the other day, and I'd probably put it right at the very top. If this decade has seen a better film (although I guess it was actually made at the end of the 20th century), I don't know about it.

Love these ones....

I would also include The Ring, The Grudge, Dark Water (Japanese version), The Eye (Korean version), What Lies Beneath and American Pie 2.

[DaveBond21]

Bump, so that we can merge this one with Zorin's new thread.

[Safari Suit]

Personally, I'd quite like to see them kept seperate, A seperate thread, for a different perspective at the very end of the decade.

Yes. Me too. No offence to the original thread of course, but not every thread should be merged just because they seemingly have things in common and my one is about now - at the end of the decade - and doesn't really need to start in a thread created nearly five years ago...).
