NOMINATION 25

"Everything going to be okay..."

Film: Captain Phillips
Director: Paul Greengrass
Year: 2013
Trailer:

[MikeDuke]

Because, why not.
I nominate World War Z 2013 Marc Foster

[Mattrick]

I just want to say FUCK GOOGLE. Usually when these threads start up I can Google Top Rated 2010 films or whatever and see good films that I didn't think of. Now the "top rated" search does nothing since they made some change, and it's just movies. There is no fucking way that Gemini Man, Replicas and The Meg are among the top rated films of the decade. These aren't even films that were big enough that they should show up at the top of just movies for the time period, either.

Nomination #8 - The Lighthouse (2019)
Directed by Robert Eggers


I'll second Infinity War...one of the few MCU films I believe deserves to be in the tournament.

[Mattrick]

Scratch that, Infinity War was seconded during my post.



Instead I second 10 Cloverfield Lane

Nomination #8 - The Lighthouse (2019)
Directed by Robert Eggers

Coulda sworn this was already nominated otherwise I woulda.

Second.

Hey have you gone through these list I posted not too long ago in the main overview thread?

Since we're all starting to compile our lists already, here are some links that could help in that regard. Obviously, the 2010s decade just recently ended and the internet is full of end of decade lists. I'm sure you can find dozens upon dozens more. This is far from definitive but again, food for thought, and highly varied:

And also here I am shamelessly plugging my own Top 30 lists for each year, if anyone's curious (I'll be pretty much going off these for nominations):

Pain and Glory (2019)
Pedro Almodóvar

Watch trailer:

[mae]

I'll second Selma.

[Mattrick]

There are some excellent films I want to nominate, but I know either no one has seen them or like 1 or 2 people have seen them, and great film likes Uncle John or For Ellen or Mustang going out in the first round with 1 or 2 votes would sadden me more than them not being included at all :'(

[MikeDuke]

I nominate End of Watch 2012 David Ayer and if I can, second Captain Philips.

Don't worry about it, but yes trailers can be tricky. You need to make sure you're using the full URL, not the short URL, and then also remove the "s" in "https". And then paste that into the Insert Video widget.

I'll second Thoroughbreds.
