21 Films from 2000 to 2008

The inimitable Tanya Lindquist had me back on Let's Talk Movies this week, where, along with Aaron Gabriels, we discussed our favorite films to come out between the years 2000-2008. There was surprisingly little crossover (Hot Fuzz made it on two lists, as did Battle Royale), some controversy, and a few headshakers from each of us, I'm sure.

I've pumped my list here from the fifteen delineated in the show to a count of twenty-one, but, because I am still hesitant to rank them best to not-so-best or whatever (these are good movies, all of them!), they are presented here in non-preferential (sort of) alphabetical order.

A Very Long Engagement


Battle Royale


Cigarette Burns


Cutey Honey


De-Lovely


Godzilla: Final Wars


Grindhouse


Hart's War


Hot Fuzz


Ichi the Killer


Imagine Me & You


Inland Empire (and its excellent sister-film, More Things That Happened)


Kissing Jessica Stein


Masked & Anonymous


May


Red Belt


Red Cliffs


Shawn of the Dead


The Devil's Rejects


13 Going On 30


Zatoichi

Not sure where to post this but I wanted to ask if anyone has heard of National Clicks?

Can someone help me find it?

Overheard some co-workers talking about it all week but didn't have time to ask so I thought I would post it here to see if someone could help me out.

Seems to be getting alot of buzz right now.

Thanks
