Let's see some top 10's from you guys then.

There Will Be Blood
Zodiac
Lost In Translation
City Of God
Eastern Promises
The Social Network
The Royal Tanenbaums
Memento
O Brother Where Art Thou
No Country For Old Men

A list dominated by Hollywood and the same school of directors, I just haven't watched enough Eastern movies in particular to put them on here. I should do better in that regard in the future.

Cannon

2000 onwards? A few of mine ...

No Country For Old Men
Omkara (Indian)
Gangs of Wasseypur 1 (Indian)
Sideways
A bittersweet Life (Korean)
Lost in Translation

I'd like to meet whoever put The Dark Knight and The Wolf of Wall Street in their top ten so I can punch them in the face. It has to be the same person.

You'd probably be punched in the face quite a lot for your top ten too if that was a thing people did when they didn't like a list. Why does it have to be the same person? The Wolf of Wall Street is a mess while The Dark Knight is the best ever superhero movie.

If you liked Moon, watch Both LOVE and The Signal. Two cool sci fi's.

That post was mostly a wind-up, but did enjoy Moon.

Wait a second - are you talking about the 3D Porno from last year? Never heard of The Signal.

Savz

There's some class movies in your wind up list... Inception? Interstellar? CLASS movies.

Coombs

I still chuckle when I think about Interstellar.

marv3llous

Way too many good films and taste is very much a personal preference in the end, but for me:

Castaway on the Moon (Korean)
City of God (Brazilian)
Y Tu Mamá También (Mexican)
Memories of Murder (Koran)
Martyrs (French)
Drive
The Revenant
Atonement
Inception
Training Day

Special mention of the whole Pusher Trilogy, but since the first one is from 1996, i didnt want to include them.

Burnwinter

😆 That scene where the evil school bureaucrats try to convince McConkahoy that the moon landing was faked.

Qwiss

But love....duh
