From 2000 to present day. We've seen a huge increase in our visual effects extravaganzas and adaptations of a hundred different kinds. What are your favorite movies since Y2K didn't kill us all?

I really, really likes it but there is a segment around the second act catalyst where it gets a little slow and un-interesting. Possible it could beat Inception if I give it another thought. After all, when I wrote that, it'd been a few months since I saw TWBB.

This is harder than it should be:
1) Pan's Labyrinth (all time favourite)
2) The Good The Bad The Weird (hilarious with a brilliant score)
3) Atonement (brilliant tracking shot around Dunkirk)
4) Watchmen (favourite comic adaptation)
5) Shaun of the Dead (classic comedy)
6) Julia's Eyes (fantastically creepy!)
7) Senna (amazing documentary)
8) House of Flying Daggers (beautiful film - there are tears every time)
9) Hellboy 2 (better than the first)
10) Fantastic Four (my unapologetic ultimate guilty pleasure)
They aren't the best films but they are my favourites!
;D

You and your smiley only responses are pure, unadulterated evil.
And, upon further review, Inception gets kicked out and There Will Be Blood goes in its place.
