But I think in 2007, idk, it was the end of the Bush administration and we were all in a mood, lol. And if it wasn’t that, it’d have been TWBB.

I still think NO COUNTRY is the best out of this lineup with THE HURT LOCKER close behind but wow…what a sorry lineup of films this is.
#1-No Country for Old Men
#2-The Hurt Locker
.
#3-Chicago
#4-LOTR
#5-The Departed
.
(Ugh…I have trouble even ranking any of these films something as high as #6)
#6-Million Dollar Baby
#7-A Beautiful Mind
#8-Gladiator
#9-Slumdog Millionaire
#10-CrashReplyCopy URL“The art of making art is putting it together...”

Chicago was fun back in the day but I don’t know if I could sit through it again. I think I would find it kinda silly nowadays.
A Beautiful Mind was a great film but the subject matter made it too disturbing to watch it again.ReplyCopy URLFYC: Vanessa Kirby - Pieces of a Woman

3) The Departed
4) Slumdog Millionaire
5) The Hurt Locker<i>A Beautiful Mind</i>, Crash, Gladiator and Million Dollar Baby should not be even in this list.

The Aviator, Eternal Sunshine, and Sideways were all way more deserving winners.
