View Full Version : Best Film Of The Noughties So Far...
What is the best film of the twenty-first century so far?
My top five:
1. Dead Man's Shoes
2. The Descent
3. Sideways
4. The Fellowship of the Ring
5. Spirited Away
It's a broad church so feel free to dissect my choices, or enlighten me to any I may have missed, also discuss; with the imminent refurbishment of Abbeydale picture house, are old school cinemas back? is this the end of the road for the multiplex?
Someone call me a taxi! - I've spelt Noughties wrong!
Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith
Batman Begins
March of the Penguins
Howl's Moving Castle
Batman begins is a belting film, certainly the best of its kind...

Indeed, I thought it was so good I bought it on R1 DVD... Same for Revenge of teh Sith.

carter101 30-01-2006, 17:31 Batman Begins
Mind you, creation of a superhero is usually the best part of the genre: Spiderman and Unbreakable (but forget about the Fantastic four and Hulk!)
Serenity
(so good I bought Firefly DVD box set straight away!)

A.B.Yaffle 01-02-2006, 20:21 Its difficult to choose, but I would pick Phone Booth. That is one brilliant film!
crowefan 01-02-2006, 21:36 1. amilee
2. a very long engagement
3. brokeback mountain
4 pride and predjudice
5 in my father's den
I have to say honourable mentions to:
American Psycho
Donnie Darko
Three Kings
Shaun of the Dead
City of God
But it had rubbish baddies
Without wishing to start a comic-book argument, As establishing villians goes, Cillian Murphy is a good Scarecrow and Sam Rockwell to be the new Joker although don't rule out Micheal Keaton (working title: Batman Comes Full-Circle!!!)
Best film so far since the millenium is green street (a must see)
