Another one that I liked a lot. I'm sort of surprised not to see Iron Man on your list though. Did it ignore the laws of physics too much for you (that initial flight test should have killed him, heh heh)?

Iron Man was a fun movie, but that's all, not one I would classify as a favorite. I also enjoyed both Hellboy films but didn't think they were substantial enough to list.

However, I had originally intended to fudge the facts a bit and list one other movie. It was released late in 2000, so technically not 21st Century, but I loved Memento.

The laughing Chrisisall

Technically, the 21st century commenced Jan 1, 2001. At the time of Heysoos, the numbering systems did not include zero, so there was no year zero, the first year started with year 1. At the end of the first year, the start of the next year was year 2. At the start of the next decade, it was year 11. At the start of the next century, it was year 101. The first century was Jan 1, 1 until Dec 31, 100 (if the calendar had the same months/days). So the 20th century was Jan 1, 1901 until Dec 31, 2000.

But some folk conjure differently.

Haven't made a list yet, but In Bruges would definitely be on it. LOVE that movie - probably because I went into it with no expectations whatsoever.

Also, I'd add:

30 Days Of Night Napoleon Dynamite Superbad The Ice Harvest (I don't know why, but I just love this movie) And I concur with Love Actually

I had actually been looking forward to In Bruges for some time, and I absolutely loved it. Saw it once at a film festival, and then again about 4 months later when it was released in cinemas. Still need to get it on DVD and watch it again, simply hilarious.

I'm afraid I must disagree with you on Napoleon Dynamite though. I absolutely HATE that film. The main reason I hate it, is probably because everyone else loves it. And I don't mean that that is the reason I dislike it, I mean, in my opinion, it is a truly boring and unfunny film, and even kind of made me feel insulted that I should find this at all interesting. And everyone keeps going on about it. And wears shirts about it. And quotes it. etc. etc. So I didn't like it to begin with, but the fact that I keep on being reminded of it, has lead me to hate it.

Ah, see, I wish I'd switched it off half way through. But I just kept sitting there thinking "at some point..it must get funny...why else would everyone like it...any minute now...any minute now..." and I'd kept hearing about his 'dance' at the end, so I figured I should watch that.

His dance wasn't funny, and it never got funny. I have quite a few friends who love it, and they can call me a douchebag all they want, I'm never going to rewatch and/or enjoy that film.

Now see . . . I was just the opposite. I'd heard a lot about it but thought it looked stupid. I found it on TV a few years ago and decided to see what the big deal was and just couldn't turn it off. I found it funny for some reason. I can't explain it, but it does have its own unique and endearing qualities that appeal to me. And I'm probably WAY over the age that normally likes the movie to begin with.

How good was it?!

I can't wait to see what Martin McDonough (the writer/director of In Bruges) does next.

and Chrisisall, you didn't like Xmen 2? Granted, I wouldn't say it was one of my favourites, but it was better than number 3.

Also, I'm unsure whether I already put it above, but after watching it again, I'd have to add Let The Right One In. Beautiful and brilliant Swedish (I'm fairly sure) vampire film. Of course, a Hollywood version is apparently already in the works from Cloverfield director Matt Reeves. Hopefully that will either get scrapped or Reeves will fight to get the version to be a very strict remake.

*Edit: I did put it above. Terrible memory.*

Ok to add more movies then, I'll say Hellboy 1 and 2. Probably 2 more than 1, but I thought both were fairly extraordinary.

Hmm, perhaps.

But one of us is standing up for a well reviewed, respected and highly successful film. The other is standing up for a horribly reviewed flop that essentially killed off two seperate franchises.

I agree the first AvP was a waste. But I also think it was FAAAAR superior to the POS sequel. Ugh, I barely even finished it.

...which is preceisely the point of a helmet....to reduce trauma. And the angle would have greatly reduced not only the force, but the ammount his head would have jerked - thus lessening the impact on the brain.

Have someone whack him directly in the noggin with something that delivers equal force directly to the forehead, without penetration obviously, and I'd wager his ass is taking a nap.

Have only watched X3 a couple times - I don't remeber the specific moment, so I can't say for sure. Would depend on the size, speed and angle of the shrapnel. Also, since he was actively fighting, as opposed to taking a sucker bullet (so to speak), I would say there are a number of circumstances that set the events apart.

300

In my basement is a treadmill, a small workout bench, and an old crappy TV. If I play 300 on that TV while on the treadmill I NEVER fail to have a good workout. 300 is not a perfect film by any stretch but there is just something about it pulls every ounce of power out of my body.

That makes it special in a unique way.

Watchmen was impressive too. Zach Snyder is doing very well by me.
