Re: Best and Worst movies of this decade (so far)
Since this decade is near to the end, I thought it would be kind of cool for everyone to review what you thought was the best and worst movies of this decade.
Here's mine:
(Nothing in particular order)
Best
Batman Begins
The Dark Knight
Gladiator
The Devil's Rejects
The Incredible Hulk (not to be confused with the 2003 piece of shit)
Iron Man
Sweeney Todd:The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
Across The Universe
Meet the Parents
Joe Dirt (shut up )
Blow
The Departed
Gangs of New York
Big Fish
Casino Royale
3:10 to Yuma
Bad Santa
Worst
Jason X
Halloween: Resurrection
Austin Powers in Goldmember
Any spoof/parody movie like Scary Movie (although I found the first two sort of funny) etc.,
Hulk (2003)
XXX
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake
All 3 movie adaptations of Resident Evil
Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
Cabin Fever
The Omen remake
Superman Returns
Any movies starring Will Ferrell and Jack Black
Re: Best and Worst movies of this decade (so far)
Don't get me wrong, I definitely love horror movies, ask DTJ and James. Some of my all-time favorite horror movies are the original Omen, the Halloween series (except for a few sequels), Dawn of the Dead (original but remake wasn't that bad either), the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre, and plenty more that I can't think of right now. Not to mention, this is a bad era for horror movies IMO.
Re: Best and Worst movies of this decade (so far)
Your picks for worst that are horror movies are admittedly not the best examples of horror done right. In fact, some of them are downright embarassing. But personally, I reserve "worst" for things that are just godawful. As disappointing as The Texas Chainsaw Redux was, I would never call it the worst of anything, you know? That said, I'll add that I almost universally agree with your "best" list, save a few.

Too many to list, and thats not meant as a cop out. I have a slightly unconventional taste in film, and all this crap spewed out by Hollywood year after year just doesn't float my boat.

Re: Best and Worst movies of this decade (so far)
Best:
Iron Man
Spider-Man
Spider-Man 2
Batman Begins
Wall-E
Memento
Shaun of the Dead
Anchorman
V for Vendetta
I'm forgetting a lot, some that could maybe bump off a Spidey movie or Anchorman, if I think of them or if they pop up on other lists I'll add them. Worst is just too hard, Ang Lee's The Hulk would be in there as would Alien vs. Predator but I'm not sure I could get a list going.
Of my faves, Memento is the best of the decade, and a contender for best all-time.
