As the decade nears it's completion, what films do you consider to be your favorite? It was a question posed on At the Movies, and I thought I should start the debate here. My top ten, which are not really in any particular order:
10. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
9. Batman Begins
8. Wall-E
7. Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring
6. Forgetting Sarah Marshall
5. Oldboy
4. the Lives of Others
3. No Country for Old Men
2. the Lord of the Rings trilogy
1. Hero

First of all, thanks for putting Batman Begins on the list as opposed to the Dark Knight. I might be one of the few to say this, but I prefer Batman Begins over the Dark Knight.

1) Mulholland Dr
2) There Will Be Blood
3) No Country for Old Men
4) WALLE
5) Inglourious Basterds
6) Pan's Labyrinth
7) Match Point
8) Gangs of New York
9) Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
10) Saraband

1.) Far From Heaven
2.) Almost Famous
3.) Mulholland Dr.
4.) No Country for Old Men/ A History of Violence
5.) Bubble/Girlfriend Experience
6.) Batman Begins/V for Vendetta

Films are not reality. Reality is not film. Film is only an approximation of reality.
