Top 20 Favorite Movies of the Decade

As we come to the close of another year, I've been counting down the best in entertainment from over the past 12 months. But let's not forget that we're also celebrating the end of the decade, so you know what that means — a recap of the top music, movies, and TV from 2000-2009! There have been so many creative, smart, and fun choices to keep me busy that it's hard to decide which ones deserve top honors. So beginning with films, here are my favorites, in no particular order. (If you don't agree — or if you'd like to submit your own top five, 10, or 20 — you can do so in the Buzz Best of the Decade Group)!

The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005) The Dark Knight (2008) Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004) The Harry Potter Series (2001-2009) High Fidelity (2000) Juno (2007) Kill Bill Vol. 2 (2004)

Movie Night: The World of Dark Knight Director Christopher Nolan

Christopher Nolan is a director who initially made a huge splash with a little budget and not much celebrity star power. He's the director of The Dark Knight and the man responsible for resuscitating the Batman franchise. Not so long ago, he was an independent filmmaker, but after this weekend he'll probably be seen as one of the most influential creative forces in Hollywood. So who is the visionary behind the mask camera? Well, you could read this interesting New York Times profile, or you could let his work speak for itself by embarking on a Christopher Nolan Movie Night!

Memento
Try to remember back to 2000 — there was a lot of hype around a little movie about a guy suffering from short-term memory loss looking for the man who murdered his wife. Memento was a big deal and shot Nolan to the head of the class in the eyes of film critics and Hollywood bigwigs alike. Guy Pearce is mesmerizing as a man forced to tattoo himself to remember things, and the way the movie plays with time is chilling and mind-blowing.

With the wave of thrillers out in the movie theaters these days, I made last week's Buzzworthy bookmarking challenge all about past thrillers that have successfully scared you silly — in a good way, of course. To get you started, I mentioned some of my favorites, like The Usual Suspects and the ever-chilling Psycho. The ones that you bookmarked are equally creepy, so if none of the current thriller options are striking your fancy, here are many more options for a spooky night at home. Keep the lights on when you watch these Buzzworthy picks!

Silence of the Lambs
Chosen by both WhiplashGirlchild and missyosigirl who says, "Creepy Hannibal Lecter played by the great Sir Anthony Hopkins. I can never see Anthony Hopkins as anybody else except as Hannibal Lecter because of this movie!!!"

The Eye
Bookmarked by JessNess who calls it: "Very creepy!! Even though everything is in subtitles it really is a must see. I'm curious about the remake they are doing with Jessica Alba....I'm sorry but the original is the best."

Three more if you dare to read more
