I didn't post yesterday because I didn't have anything to say about either Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada or Caché, as I'm only vaguely aware of their existence. The Man Who Wasn't There is similar, in that I've heard the title before, but have no idea what it's about.
Iron Man however was #10 on my list. The film was quite the gamble for Marvel at the time, but it was one that certainly paid off. Unlike some later MCU entries, it works really well as a standalone film, as audiences don't have to be familiar with the character or comics to enjoy it. Over a decade later, it's still one of the best comic book adaptations ever made.
Seen: 7/18
My List:
08. Mother (2009) - #96
10. Iron Man (2008) - #83
25. Bon Cop, Bad Cop (2006) - 1-pointer
