Ok, so I managed to finish one "End of the Decade" picspam. Here are my favorite movies of the decade! This list is definitely weighted towards movies from 2007-2009 since I saw them more recently, and I saw way more movies in those years than in 2000-2003ish (I was only 11-14 during those years, so I mostly saw a bunch of crappy movies like XXX and The New Guy and such). Also, the rankings aren't really exact; I mean, I definitely enjoy the movies ranked 1-5 more than the ones in the honorable mentions, but everything in between just kind of depends on what mood I'm in and if I was able to easily find screencaps (Catch Me If You Can would probably be around 20-25 if I had been able to find decent screencaps, but alas, I could not). ...so yeah, anyways! Here we go!

Honorable Mentions

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007); Atonement (2007); Batman Begins (2005); Best in Show (2000); Big Fish (2003); Capote (2005); Catch Me If You Can (2002); Les Chansons d'amour (2007); An Education (2009); Finding Nemo (2003); Gangs of New York (2002); Hot Fuzz (2007); Iron Man (2008); Kiss Kiss Bang Bang (2005); Let the Right One In (2008); Love Actually (2003); Milk (2008); Oldboy (2003); Persepolis (2007); The Prestige (2006); Pride and Prejudice (2005); Shaun of the Dead (2004); Star Trek (2009); Thank You For Smoking (2005); Waitress (2007)

Thank you! Brokeback is such a beautiful film; I can watch it over and over and I never get sick of it.

Awesome list! This must have taken you awhile. I tried to compose one, but I couldn't remember every film I loved in this decade. This one included a lot of them though.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Thanks! Yeah, it did take me ages. I'm glad you liked it!

Loved Amelie Poulin too

i like how you set this up

i'm downloading no country for old men now lol i hope it lives up to its hype

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

Thanks! It took me a long time to figure out how to set this up, but I'm happy with how it turned out.

I think No Country For Old Men is amazing, but I do know a few people who didn't enjoy it. I hope you like it!

Really lovely. Interesting choices and a diverse taste helps make this original :) I quite enjoyed it.

Aw, thank you so much! :D I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[anna-bo-banna.livejournal.com]

i love seeing the diving bell and the butterfly so high. that movie is gorgeous, and the story so inspiring.

all these movies that i've seen i love, and all the ones i haven't i would love to see.

[http://users.livejournal.com/brokenrecord__/]

That movie really is truly beautiful. I wish I had been able to find good screencaps of it (I could only find stills) because I really wanted to show off how gorgeous it is. The movie really blew me away.

Anyways, I'm glad you liked so many of the movies on the list, and I (obviously) definitely recommend any you haven't seen!
