It's an interesting list, definitely gives me something to think about when I compile a best of the decade list after the new year...
ReplyDeleteVery interesting and a lot of the choices I can agree with...just not in that order =)
ReplyDeletequite true
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the strangest lists of its type I've seen. Some of the choices are downright bizarre. Plus it seems a little weird to create a "best of the decade" list before the decade is over...
ReplyDeleteDefinitely agreeing more with pmasd. Some of these are shocking (Casino Royale, Team America, even the Bourne films). I definitely have a lot of qualms with this list but it did appreciate a lot of deserving films as well.
ReplyDeleteit spurs conversation, which is always good

ReplyDeleteI remember watching 28 Days Later when it came out and thinking it was all right. I just watched it recently, and I honestly felt that had it not been for the extremely lackluster 2nd half (which was a great idea in concept and had some good scenes, it was just handled poorly), the 1st half had the makings of being not just the best horror/zombie movie I've ever seen, but an incredibly powerful drama at the same time.
