My incredibly nerdy faves:


value
10. Punch-Drunk Love (2002) - An Adam Sandler movie that I actually like?
Verily, the seventh seal hath been broken.

9. The Contender (2000) - Joan Allen totally pwns this movie.

8. WALL-E (2008) - The down-to-earth longing to make a human connection as depicted by two computer-generated robots, & all with just a simple vocabulary that consists of nothing more than their names & a directive.

7. 40 Year Old Virgin (2005) - A comedy that surprised me in that it was, at times, touching & even socially in-depth, but without any cost to the number of out-loud laughs

6. Million Dollar Baby (2004) - Simply, a film that had me at "Mo Cuishle".

5. Let The Right One In (2008) - As far as vampire love stories go, I find myself agreeing with those who compare this one with another teen-human-falls-for-teen-bloodfeeder film that was released around the same time:
the 15 year old girls can have their Twilight. I'll take LTROI.

4. Kill Bill (2004) - How do you stop a Bride-on-the-rampage from charging?
Try sending her a Bill.

3. The Incredibles (2004) - So far, my favorite animated feature of all time.

2. Spider-Man 2 (2004) - The most I could've hoped for this sequel was that it be at least half as good as it's predessor.
Instead, Spidey-2 turned out to become one of my favorite movie adaptations of a comicbook superhero ever.
Which I guess I should've anticipated since before I even entered the theatre, I noticed that my spider-senses didn't go off, all atingling an' sh*t.

1. House Of Flying Daggers (2004) - Growing up, it always frustrated me that the majority of big budget action flicks or martial arts movies of the time often seemed to think that you couldn't have a good story & still make room for expansive bangs with expensive effects. And I always asked "Why not?". And then came the House Of Flying Daggers, & it asked the very same question.
