Thanks! I'll check it out.

I still think LoTR is too flawed, still heavily entertaining, to be held in high praise as a whole. FoTR is pretty solid though.

Re: Your top movie past 10 years?

Kill Bill is a great series but there are too many flaws that I notice with it. The dialogue shifts between good and bad with like every other line which bothers me a bit. I still love it but I can't honestly say that it's close to being a favorite.

Haven't seen Tokyo Godfathers yet.

FOTR, seeing that movie for the first time was a great experience. And the ending was fantastic. Really left me wanting more. I like the other 2 but they are nowhere near as good as the first.

No Country for Old Men and Valhalla Rising had me mesmerized, but I have to ponder a bit more for the best since 2001.
Plus Cars 2 is coming out soon.

I am curious to hear your reason(s) why. While I was never bored by it, I found it to be very much style over substance.

I felt the movie from MMs POV. His life was beyond suffering or pleasure. His existing in the moment but having shifts to future and past. His existence was so far removed from those around him that he was not really of them at all. He was not a slave or an owner, he was not a crusader or an infidel, he was not an invader or going native. He existed outside of the reality of those around him. Pain or pleasure, life or death, he was other than that. And it amused him to have an audience in the form of the boy. I just found it sort of hypnotic.

If I had to narrow it down to one flick, I guess Children of Men would be it.
