In case you haven't noticed....I like lists. Since the decade has come to an end I think it's appropriate that I post my 10 most favorite films of the past ten years. It took some thinking, and yes it was close, but to be fair to the films that just missed the cut, I've added a few extra flicks at the end because picking just 10 was too hard. So here are my 10 best films of the decade:

10) Mulholland Dr. (2001)
9) Traffic (2000)
8) A Mighty Wind (2003)
7) Mystic River (2003)
6) The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2001-2003)
5) The 40 Year Old Virgin (2005)
4) The Wrestler (2008)
3) The Departed (2006)
2) The Dark Knight (2008)
1) Pan's Labyrinth (2006)

And here are a few that just missed the cut, but are worth a watch none-the-less:

- Hot Fuzz (2007)
- Requiem for a Dream (2000)
- In Bruges (2008)
- The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

Pan's Labyrinth has become the movie that I now call my "favourite movie of all-time". I actually just watched it (again) two nights ago!

Can't argue with the rest of your list except for Traffic, I wasn't a big fan of. I would probably add Juno, Death Proof, Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away, and maybe No Country For Old Men in my Top 10.

In my "honourabe mentions": Shaolin Soccer. An awesome, funny movie by Stephen Chow.
