Simple, list what you feel were the best movies of the last decade.
A few that pop into my mind are:
Inception
Gran Torino
I'm sure there's others, but I can't think of them at the moment.
Also, feel free to state the worst movies you've seen

How about:
Children of Men
Standing in the Shadows of Motown
Just off of the top of my head.

There Will Be Blood
Inglourious Basterds
Slumdog Millionaire

Also:
There Will Be Blood
Primer
Oldboy

Slumdog Millionaire | That's ok, I can't agree on your picking Inglorious Basterds. Didn't enjoy it at all. 
There Will Be Blood was fantastic, though.

Havent seen Inception, but it looks good. A lot of the flicks Im seeing on here were good, some horrible, but not worthy, IMO, of 'Best Movie of the Last Decade'.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Mar 2008 Location: Wichita, KS | | | I honestly wouldn't put Inception, Gran Torino, Shutter Island, or The Departed in the Top 10s of the years they were released, let alone for the decade.
The movies that immediately came to me when I read the title of the thread were these:
City of God
Oldboy
Man on Wire
Children of Men
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

There Will Be Blood
Inglourious Basterds
Slumdog Millionaire | Gahhh how did I forget Inglourious Basterds?? Great movie.
I'll be honest though, I really hated the other two. Slumdog was depressing and hardly enjoyable at all, and I didn't really see the point to There Will Be Blood (not to mention the music was awful).
