I'll save room for more when my brain stumbles across them.
I regret leaving my soul
I forgot I needed it, to feel
maybe when I die
I'll just grab it real quick
Most of those are good or very good, but Children of Men AND Tropic Thunder!?
No, there's no way either belongs on a "best of" list under any circumstances.
I haven't seen Tropic Thunder, but I think Children of Men is one of the best and most thought provoking films I've seen in my life, nevermind the decade.

These aren't 'best of' lists, these are lists of personal favoritesOriginally Posted by Ruthful
and where's your list Feev?
Only the gentle are ever really strong.
Children of Men is a very important film and one if the best this decade. Many of the action scenes are just one long take, which in my opinion is very impressive.

I really enjoyed Children of Men ... and really thought Tropic Thunder stunk.
We are all so different!!

There is a lot of overlap with my 25 overall list. I thought it would be interesting to see if my tastes have changed since the beginning of the decade, and also if some years were way better than others movie-wise. Each year is not in any particular order.
Ola, I am surprised that you have Howl's Moving Castle and not Spirited Away. I thought Spiited Away was one of the best films I've seen in my lifetime. It ranks up there with Grave of the Fireflies.

What the hell is Tropic Thunder at all?We must get Team Jackets and membership cards immediately !!!me too! i actually get looked at with pity when i say i don't like it

Spoiler:
I loved Tropic Thunder.
As long as you guys understood that the opening trailers were part of the film, then I'm fine with you not liking it.
The people I hate are the people who thought they were real trailers, then say they hate the film. This means they totally missed the whole point of the movie.
Before you say, "I'm sure everybody knew they were fake," guess again. A few of my family members thought they were real.
My uncle even turned to me in the theater and asked, "Have you seen any of the other Scorcher films?"
I kid you not.

Actually, those fake trailers in the beginning were the only thing I enjoyed about Tropic Thunder. Especially... MTV Best Kiss Award Winner Toby Maguire!! I thought that was priceless.
