Comments on: THE 18 BEST MOVIES OF THE DECADE http://filmdrunk.uproxx.com/2009/12/the-18-best-movies-of-the-decade FilmDrunk.com is the movie blog that plays rough, just the way your mother likes it. We cover all things movie-related, but just because we watch a lot of movies don’t expect us to act all serious about them. Think of FilmDrunk as the film industry’s older brother who punches it in the shoulder when it acts queer.

Much better than Stephen King who includes DISTRICT 9, 2012, LAST HOUSE OF THE LEFT and THE TAKING OF PELHAM 123 in his list for the year's best. God knows what he would choose for the decade. This was a tough assignment. Quite a few children had to be left behind. I especially liked what the poster who loved ADAPTATION (one of those I had to leave behind) had to say about that movie. It was quite eloquent....I know, I know...I'm a fag...well, here you go - my list for the 18 best of the decade (in no particular order, btw): 1. The Station Agent 2. High Fidelity 3. Inside Man 4. The Lord of the Rings trilogy(in this order: Two Towers, Fellowship, Return of the King) 5. The Kingdom 6. The Mist 7. Black Hawk Down 8. Sexy Beast 9. Snatch 10. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead 11. The Bourne Trilogy (in this order: Supremacy, Identity, Ultimatum) 12. Collateral 13. Dark Knight 14. The Departed 15. The Descent 16. Downfall 17. The Fountain 18. Gladiator All great movies that have been talked about here.

Additions: Lord of the Rings, Wedding Crashers, Little Miss Sunshine, Gladiator, Memento, Old School, Slumdog Millionare, The Dark Knight, Garden State, Snatch (Wish it could be Lock Stock, but it's 98) & The Bourne Identity.

There Will Be Blood is fucking incredible. I also really liked Capote (due mostly to PSH). No Road to Perdition? There Will Be Blood is fucking incredible.

DARK KNIGHT!! I'd even include Batman Begins, because until Dark Knight, Begins was held the title. And I'm sorry but what about Gladiator?? Wedding Crashers?? Both are arguably the best action/drama and comedy of All Time as well. Super Troopers deserved some honorable mention love.
