This is another one of those instances where no one posts, because there really isn't much to disagree with. It's a great list, with great insight. I frankly think it was a weak decade for movies, and looking through your list, and the IMDB top 250 (which is a pretty bizarre list when you really look at it), just to job my memory... I really can't find any movie from the decade that stands out as being "worthy" of holding the title of best movie of the decade. The Dark Knight Returns? Fellowship of the Ring? Crouching Tiger? Avatar (I was blown away by it)? Up in the Air? Plenty of good movies... but... none of them feel like they deserve to be called the best movie in an arbitrary span of time. Fellowship is probably the best pick. I feel bad that I hadn’t commented on this when I read it (a day or so after it was posted).
