What Movies From The Last 10 Years Would You Add To The Top 100 of All Time?
In doing a little pre-Oscar research on Martin Scorsese last night (I was trying to see how many Top 100 movies he had), I discovered that the American Film Institute (AFI) is doing a 10th anniversary update to it's 100 Years...100 Movies list.
You can download AFI's 100 Years...100 Movies - 10th Anniversary Edition ballot HERE.
The question is, what movies from the last 10 years would you add to the top 100 of all time?
My nominees are (in no particular order):
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon
Sexy Beast
The Lord of the Rings (all three as one 12-hour long, director's cut entry)
Rushmore
Memento
Magnolia
Mystic River
Saving Private Ryan
American Beauty
Y Tu Mamá También
and I almost forgot, Marty's fourth addition to the list, The Departed

I agree with the "Lord of the Rings" taken as a whole. I would add the three "Star Wars" movies, combined together, as well. Of course LOR would rank higher:)
I'm not sure what movies I would bump from the "Top 100," but following are my choices for consideration, by year.
Amistad (1997)
As Good as It Gets (1997)
Boogie Nights (1997)

Well that's about it. The only movie I saw from 2006 was "The Da Vinci Code" and I don't think I'd put it on this list. I'm sure I missed a few that should be on this list and I'm sure that I added a few that are not deserving...But I liked all listed and therefore should be considered:)!!!
