Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

Here's a link to the RYM list:

http://rateyourmusic.com/films/chart?page=1&chart_type=top&type=film&year=2001&genre_include=1&genres=&include=both&limit=none&countries=

The vote will close on Saturday May 8th at midnight.

You can list 5 to 20 movies. You can list more than 20, but only 20 will be counted. For movies with multiple release dates, we will go by the original release date which should be found on RYM.

And a reminder for this particular list, TV series can not be voted for, even though Band of Brothers is awesome.

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

I see an Audiard film on a lot of lists. Is that anywhere near in the class of Un Prophete?

I think 2001 could be the most competitive year of the decade. So many consensus classics, as well as a lot of love-or-hate films.

The four I just added to my Netflix queue are Ghost World, Piano Teacher, No Man's Land, and The Man Who Wasn't There.

.

"Sur mes lèvres" is, for me, the best Audiard's film. Audiard who has never made a bad movie."Regarde les hommes tombés", "Un héros très discret", "Sur mes lèvres", "De battre, mon coeur s'est arrêté" and "Un prophète" are all excellent or, at least very very good.

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

A man who can put Le placard and L'Anglaise et le duc in the same list deserves to be known

Well, I don't think those films are so completely opposite. There are a few titles in my list ("Mulholland Drive" / "Do not Say a Word" on one side, and "Gosford Park" / "Shallow Hal" on the other) that I find it much different from each other, rather than "Le placard" / "L'Anglaise et le duc".

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

These lists need more Pootie Tang

1 Freddy Got Fingered
2 Exit Wounds

9 Wet Hot American Summer

11 Ocean’s Eleven
12 Super Troopers
13 Wasabi
14 Kiss of the Dragon
15 Training Day

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

This list is preliminary. I may add to it later but the top probably won't change.

1. Mullholland Drive
2. Y Tu Mama Tambien
3. Fellowship Of The Ring
4. Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain [Amélie]
5. Spirited Away
6. Donnie Darko
7. In The Bedroom
8. Ghost World
9. The Royal Tenenbaums
10. A Beautiful Mind

Comments:

-I'm surprised so few people are listing Fellowship Of The Ring. I know this is a pretty anti-mainstream board, but with so many people giving points to dumb mainstream comedies I'd expect a lot of points to go to LOTR too.

-I thought I'd like Ghost World more, but the concept has just been done to death in indie films. Antisocial, sensitive, intelligent hipster stubbornly trying not to sell out in the face of reality. I feel the main character is very similar to Claire Fisher from Six Feet Under, but with less depth and soul.

-I probably would have come out of AI with a more positive impression if they just lopped off the whole alien bit. Spielberg has the annoying habit of replacing philosophical ambiguity with humanist moral certainty.

-Somebody needs to tell Michael Haneke he's not Ingmar Bergman.

I can't tell you how many times I have said those exact words.

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

No other mentions of Lucia y el Sexo unfortunately. I guess people haven't seen that movie, so I urge you to watch it soon!

Interesting director that Julio Medem (also Tierra, La Ardila Roja and Los Amantes del Circulo Polar)

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

Thanks for the Zoolander recommendations. After watching all those heavy serious bummer art films, I needed to watch a movie with the line 'They died in a freak gasoline fight accident'.

Zoolander will be added to my updated list after I see The Man Who Wasn't There. It's so freaking stupid you can't even be bothered by it. It's the same vein of movie as Kick-Ass.

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

Since Netflix didn't send me The Man Who Wasn't There despite it being first in my queue, my final list:

1. Mullholland Drive
2. Y Tu Mama Tambien
3. Fellowship Of The Ring
4. Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain [Amélie]
5. Spirited Away
6. Donnie Darko
7. In The Bedroom
8. Ghost World
9. Zoolander
10. The Royal Tenenbaums
11. The Piano Teacher
12. A Beautiful Mind

You know four different people had Mullholland Drive and Amelie as their #1 and #2 in some order?

Re: Movies of the 00s poll: 2001

The results.

1. Mullholland Drive 357/9/5
2. Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain (Amelie) 295/9/1
3. Ghost World 230/9/1
4. Donnie Darko 221/8/0
5. 千と千尋の神隠し (Spirited Away) 181/8/1
6. Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship Of The Ring 166/7/0
7. Y Tu Mama Tambien 141/7/0
8. A.I. 134/6/1
9. The Royal Tenenbaums 115/6/0
10. The Man Who Wasn't There 104/7/1

Just missed:

La pianiste (The Piano Teacher) 94/7/0
A Beautiful Mind 91/6/1

The Coen Brothers become the first directors with more than one movie in the final 100.
