    Battle of Films: 1997-2006

    Pasag and I thought such a battle could be fun.

    Each person can nominate 10 movies and second 5 movies (max). After we get 96 movies, we start off with the battle.

    Hope it will be fun..

    Actually a reasonable sort of battle idea. Knocks out a lot of the obvious winners, and leaves an open field. Not all that many films I really love from the last 10 years, but there's plenty of good ones. Trying to think of some good ones not mentioned yet.

    I'll nominate:
    Memento
    Chopper
    Lantana
    Cube
    Wag The Dog

    I'll also second Fight Club, American Psycho and Sin City.

    Second Memento, Sin City, Fight Club.

    Nominate Matrix, Hotel Rwanda, The Departed.
    Can't decide on a signature? Why not Zoidberg?

    I'll second these. There are more than 5, so whichever ones have already been seconded, forget about -

    V For Vendetta
    Sin City
    Fight Club
    Napoleon Dynamite
    Wicker Park
    Lantana
    Hotel Rwanda

    There isn't a lot of consensus reached on whether sequels etc should be taken as 1 entry or separately. We are going with 1 entry here so that there can be more movies which can enter into the fray.

    I will second

    Good Night and Good Luck
    Hotel Rwanda
    Munich
