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!

Wonderful list!

And yes, yes, YES for Brokeback being number one. It's an absolutely incredible film. <3

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.

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

Great list seriously..
I wasn't going to comment until I saw Brokeback Mountain number one.. =P
Loved Amelie Poulin too

Thanks so much! I adore Brokeback so much.

This list is made of awesome. You have Moon which I just saw recently and loved. In Bruges! Memento! Eternal Sunshine! Dark Knight! Hurt Locker! And so many more awesome movies. Really fantastic list.

Thanks! That's awesome that you saw Moon and loved it. I haven't seen it mentioned very often, but I adored that film so much.

This is simply gorgeous.

Thank you! :D

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

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!

thank you

I haven't seen so many of these but your picspam is beautiful!

I ♥ that you included Memento and as #3! That is an awesome movie!

Thanks! Memento is such a spectacular film. It's really brilliant.

Great list! I love the way you've laid it out!

Thanks so much!

I love your list - the closest one I've seen so far to my own tastes!

Thanks! I hadn't seen a lot of lists very close to this one, which is one of the reasons I really wanted to make it. I'm glad you liked it!

Brilliant list! ♥ So many of my favorites are here.

Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Great list! We have sooo much overlap: BBM, Diving Bell, Eternal Sunshine, Wall-E, Moulin Rouge, Pans Labyrinth!

Thanks so much! :D

Great list! And i love how i haven't seen only few of these. Will check them out then;)

Thanks! That's awesome that you've seen so many of them! I hope you like the others if you check them out!

amazing list and matching picspams! ♥

Great work on this! ♥

I agree with number one so much. ♥

I adore that movie so much, I can't even describe how much!

You have amazing taste. :)

Heh, thank you! :D

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.

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.

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!
