Favorite of those was easily Spider-Man 2. Definitely the best superhero movie, and just a very good film generally. Minority Report is really good too, a great "warning" film.

Haven't seen Tropic Thunder but have heard of it, guess I'd watch that one. Based solely on the name though, There Will Be Blood sounds action packed if not a bit generic, maybe that.

The Last Samurai is one of my favorites from the '00s (top 10 in general possibly), it's got a little bit of everything and ties it up nicely. Dinosaur was the last good traditionally animated Disney film (one of the last in general, actually), that deserves a mention. Matrix Reloaded was amazing, non-stop action. There's lots of other good movies too.

^'There Will Be Blood' has very little action. It's a drama--------pretty much a character study. A really good, well-acted character study, but a character study. I mean, you might like it, but...like, if you're hoping for the next 'Tombstone', you're going to be disappointed.

^^Off your 'want to see' list, I'd definitely recommend everything except 'Barbershop', 'Walk the Line' and 'Memento' (not a dig on them--------simply haven't seen them). Think you'd like 'Oldeuboi' and 'In Bruges', too. Former is a crazy Korean revenge story----------latter is a comedic British gangster flick. Good biz.

So here's the ones I've seen. Plus sign indicates a movie I like watching. Minus sign for a movie I'd actively avoid.

Not on the list...assuming 2000 itself counts as part of the 2000s, I think 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?', 'Castaway' and 'American Psycho' are all dynamite.

I liked 'Black Snake Moan' a lot. My friends didn't really get it. And hey, 'Saddest Music in the World' came out in '03----------it's one of the weirdest, funniest movies I can think of. Ooh, and 'Dhoom' is really good.
