Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Coincidentally I watched the first half of Fury Road before I had to go to bed last night. I probably agree with them.

Koray Savas 2,251 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 The Tree Of Life would be my #1 so a very agreeable list. I would put Interstellar in place of Inception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Just realized that F. Murray Abraham is in two of my favorites of the decade: Inside Llewyn Davis and The Grand Budapest Hotel (although I'd still probably rate Moonrise Kingdom higher). What a great actor!

Thor 7,471 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 I've seen all of them. Some great ones that deserve to be on the list, some fine ones that nonetheless do not, and some I don't care for at all and that have no place there. While MAD MAX: FURY ROAD is a brilliant film -- certainly one of the best that year -- I wouldn't go so far as to call it the best of the entire decade.

KK 3,307 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 There are some very fine movies on this list. Mad Max wouldn't be my pick, but it's a pretty fair survey of the decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay 37,287 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 Out of the movies on this list, the only ones I've seen so far are: 1) Mad Max: Fury Road - George Miller 4) Boyhood - Richard Linklater 5) The Social Network - David Fincher 10) Get Out - Jordan Peele 11) Under the Skin - Jonathan Glazer 12) Carol - Todd Haynes 16) Twin Peaks : The Return - David Lynch 17) Her - Spike Jonze 20) Inception - Christopher Nolan en Holy Motors - Leos Carax And I liked all those movies, but only LOVED Fury Road, Boyhood, Under The Skin, Carol, and Her. Inception was a fun heist movie but not anything remotely special or top 10 worthy. I liked Interstellar more. The Social Network is fine but kinda forgettable. Twin Peaks I don't think of as a movie, I don't care what David Lynch wants me to think. Get Out was good! Movies from the 2010s I really enjoyed that didn't make this list: BLUE RUIN HELL OR HIGH WATER PRISONERS WILD TALES (RELATOS SALVAJES) LOCKE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO (Fincher) SICARIO The Wind Rises Gravity Compliance Nightcrawler Arrival The Hunt (Jagten) Edge of Tomorrow Life of Pi Blue is the Warmest Color I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore Passion Room The Revenant The Big Short Moonrise Kingdom Grand Budapest Hotel Blade Runner 2049 Three Billboards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've made a list of how many films I've seen over my lifetime so far, but it doesn't include any meta info like release dates. It's just a really long alphabetical list, and I don't feel like reading through it. I have made other lists of how many films I've seen per actor. Surprisingly Sylvester Stallone and Samuel L. Jackson top the list at 32 films each. And another list of which films I saw in the cinema, which came to about 215 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be a stan is to be a big fan of something. To "stan" something (as a verb) is to evangelize for it. It comes from the Eminem song.

Wow, that seems like a very low success rate (even if there are some more that you didn't recall off the top of your head)! I would stop watching new films if I was finding them unabsorbing. I'm sure I could name more than one hundred films from this decade that I thought were awesome... 10 minutes ago, John said: What is a “stan”?
