Title: Re: best of the 00's
Post by: ice grillin you on November 17, 2009, 11:41:58 AM
ive never seen the simpsons but from what i hear and read it hasnt been that good much less the best of anything since the 90's

again never seen futurama or buffy....but both got across the board critical acclaim

never heard of veronica mars so i cant speak on that
Title: Re: best of the 00's
Post by: MDS on November 17, 2009, 12:01:02 PM
family guy is retarded. its funny at times but the writing is terrible and its basically a 22 minute long gag. no story, no interesting characters, just jokes. some hit, some miss. its like an snl skit.


the simpsons has been funny in 10 years.

also the sopranos at 2 is a joke.

yeah its not for everyone...its kind of limited in its appeal in that its a throwback to a specific kind of movie that was made in the 70's...atmospheric gritty urban conspiracy type thrillers and dramas...like the conversation or all the presidents men...those are some of my favorite movies ever...

i also love movies where ny is a character not a location...there isnt a better place to film a picture than on the streets of that city

The last two months of the tenth year of a decade doesn't exist. That would be the last two months of the first year of a new decade, because a decade is 10 years not 11.  

that barely makes sense but i think its right.

year 5 = 2004
year 6 = 2005
year 7 = 2006
year 8 = 2007

8. blackhawk down

10. zodiac

honorables: dark knight - half nelson - children of men - sideways - adaptation - session 9 - sherrybaby - maria full of grace - pans lab - before sunset


Traffic was crap as was Sideways. Cabin Fever was awful, just farging awful. And I'm saying that as a huge fan of horror movies AND so-bad-they're-good movies. Cabin Fever was neither. I loved Wedding Crashers but probably wouldn't put it on a to ten list unless you're talking specifically about comedies. Didn't see Michael Clayton, Bug, Session 9, Maria Full of Grace, Before Sunset  or Zodiac.

The rest of this list is pretty damned good.

I'm kind of shocked that bands like Bright Eyes and Death Cab made the list, but Brand New's The Devil And God Are Raging Inside Me did not...especially since that CD prompted a few press outlets to dub them "Americas version of Radiohead"...Which I don't really get, I think they're closer to Morrissey/The Smiths than Radiohead.

my top 10 (i think)

1. michael clayton
2. city of god
3. bug
4. wedding crashers
5. no country old men
6. dawn of the dead
7. traffic
8. blackhawk down
9. cabin fever
10. zodiac

honorables: dark knight - half nelson - children of men - sideways - adaptation - session 9 - sherrybaby - maria full of grace - pans lab - before sunset


Traffic was crap as was Sideways. Cabin Fever was awful, just farging awful. And I'm saying that as a huge fan of horror movies AND so-bad-they're-good movies. Cabin Fever was neither. I loved Wedding Crashers but probably wouldn't put it on a to ten list unless you're talking specifically about comedies. Didn't see Michael Clayton, Bug, Session 9, Maria Full of Grace, Before Sunset  or Zodiac.

The rest of this list is pretty damned good.


cabin fever is awesome in BOTH a good movie way and in a so bad its a good movie way....which is very rare

altho i will say it being in any top ten of a decade says more about that decade than it does cabin fever

Again, Bad Religion was great when they were new. In the 90s. Its not like their sound changed drastically in the 00s and they were suddenly a top of the world punk rock band.

First she wanted me to cut her while we were shagging, but I told her that was a little too kinky for me. Then when we were at a bar she comes out of the bathroom dripping blood from a pretty nice cut on her arm. Apparently I should not have talked to a girl I'd known for over a decade. A few days later I broke up with her via text message

they were new in the 80's.. and they have definitely changed their sound pretty drastically even from album to album.  even their worst cd is light years better then some of that electronica bullshtein they pass off as music on that list.  they expanded to a 6 person band in the 00's and have done some of their best sounding albums "new maps of hell" which was their last cd and "process of belief".  in contrast their worst cd's released were probably the ones in the late 90's.  and they still are basically a top of the world punk rock band.. because their still actually punk rock.  some of this horrible pop punk.. "hi, i wear eye line and grab your ass in the touchy pit" isn't real punk.

CSN's top 5 Philly teams of the decade:

1 = 2008 Phillies
2 = 2004 Eagles
3 = 2000-01 Sixers
4 = 2009 Phillies
5 = 2003-04 St. Joe's

Not really much argument there unless you want to replace St. Joe's with last year's Villanova team...

I liked the 01 Sixers better than the 04 Eagles. That Sixers season was so much fun and they were the only team to beat the Lakers in the entire playoffs that year even though they lost 4 straight. That Raptors series was epic. It had everything. Three different 50 point performances being one of them(2 Iverson, 1 Carter). But I agree with 08 Phils being #1. Has to breaking the drought.

I actually agree with IGY, I loved Michael Clayton. Hated it the first time I saw it, but watched it again when bored and started to love it. The first time I saw it, I watched a pirated version on a 15 inch computer monitor and just didn't pay full attention. The movie doesn't point things out for you, so you need to pay attention. I think it is Clooney's best performance of his career and his best movie. I wouldn't put it #1 of the decade though.

Top movies of decade in no order:

Lost in Translation
Oldboy
No Country
Bad Santa
The Wrestler
The Departed - don't care it has a ton of hype, I loved it
The Lives of Others - German film I loved
Michael Clayton
Let the Right One In

Bunch of others I really enjoyed like Children of Men, Memento, The Prestige, Gladiator, The Bourne Triology, In Bruges.

Most overrated movie of the decade? Crash.
