| What are your top 10 movies of the 2000's? Go ahead and include '10 and '11 if you want, even though it's technically a new decade.
Mine are:
1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy
2. The Harry Potter series
3. Requiem for a Dream
4. The Hurt Locker
5. A Beautiful Mind
6. Crash
7. The Departed
8. Avatar
9. Benjamin Button
10. Gladiator
**honorable mention- Traffic (loved that movie) |

But the overall impact of the HP and LOTR movies deserved mention IMO. I was a big fan of both series as well. Although none of the individual movies would've made my top 10, the overall stories of both series would.

Thanks, GND. | Not a fan of "24" then? She had been Jack Bauer's trouble prone daughter for a couple of years by then, but Girl Next Door showed her in a whole new light. Those five little words in the motel scene are better than lots of porn out there.
