The Best Films of the Decade (aka "The Naughties")

Best Films Of The Decade (aka The Naughties) From Alex & Terry

List # 1

By Alex Simon

When Terry and I initially discussed writing these lists, I had a tough time thinking back on 20 films over the past decade which I was really taken with, thinking that movies have sunk so low over the past ten years, that even choosing a dozen would be a short-order job. Thirty minutes into it, my list had nearly 60 titles! After much cutting, pasting, and re-cutting and pasting, here are my top 20 films (in no particular order) of the first decade of the 21st century, dubbed by many as “the naughties.” --A.S.

1.No Country for Old Men (Coen Brothers, 2007) An elegiac blend of stark beauty and full-throttle despair from two of our finest filmmakers, set in the contemporary American West. Every frame is damn near flawless, and would have been an even more perfect vehicle for the late Sam Peckinpah. »

The 15 Most Anticipated Films of 2010

27 December 2009 10:16 AM, PST | ReelLoop.com | See recent Reel Loop news »

So you’ve unwrapped all of your Christmas presents, received three copies of District 9 from multiple uncommunicative family members, and the year of 2009 is about to be wrapped up. The debate is over: 2009 has been a great year for film. So what do you do now?

Why, start thinking about what’s around the corner, of course!

While there’s less in the way of interesting sci-fi, as 2009 will surely be remembered for, 2010 has plenty of interesting new films in store, as well as some remakes, reboots and sequels. Here’s a list of the 15 most anticipated films of 2010, in order of release, followed by a minefield of movies you might consider avoiding.

The Wolfman (February 12)

Originally scheduled for release this year and pushed back due to production delays, it seems that Joe Johnston’s The Wolfman is finally upon us. While news of reshoots and delays always send »

Ridley Scott's 'Robin Hood' gets awesome poster

26 December 2009 10:43 PM, PST | screeninglog.com | See recent screeninglog news »

As the trailer for Ridley Scott's "Robin Hood" is starting to play more and more often in theaters, more and more people seem to get excited about the director's reimagining of the famous character.

Here is a new poster for the upcoming adventure film, and I believe it first showed up at HeyUGuys. It's quite simple, yes, but it sure looks awesome; kind of that fantastic last shot in the current preview.

"Robin Hood" opens May 14, 2010, and it features an all-star cast including Russell Crowe, Mark Strong, Matthew Macfadyen, Cate Blanchett, William Hurt, Danny Huston, Max von Sydow and Kevin Durand. »

First Posters From Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood

23 December 2009 12:20 PM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

For your viewing pleasure, Collider presents some pictures of Russell Crowe looking pissed off. The good news is, they weren’t taken at the Mercer Hotel and a blood-caked telephone is nowhere to be seen. Rather, they’re international posters for director Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated Robin Hood. They feature Crowe (apparently fresh off a screening of Zombieland) in close-up, pointing a ready-to-fire bow and arrow menacingly right at your face.

The message here seems to be in line with that of the original North American trailer: Robin Hood is a badass and this summer you should come watch him do lots of badass stuff. In many ways, it’s reminiscent of the campaign that launched Zack Snyder’s 300. I know some people have taken issue with this, but I’m really not concerned. With a name like Ridley Scott attached, you know you’re in store for a »

First International Trailer For Robin Hood

22 December 2009 9:15 AM, PST | Screenrush | See recent Screenrush news »

The first international trailer for Ridley Scott's forthcoming forest-dwelling epic Robin Hood is now online.

Russell Crowe stars as the titular character, alongside Cate Blanchett as the lovely Maid Marion and co-stars William Hurt, Vanessa Redgrave, Saoirse Ronan, Mark Strong, Kevin Durand and Scott Grimes.

Check out the trailer in the player below. It certainly does, as many have noted, have its similarities to the director and lead's earlier collaboration on Gladiator, but who cares? Gladiator was ace, and if the boys want to get together and make something equally rousing and entertaining a decade later, then we say good luck to 'em.

Kristen Stewart Goes a Whole 45 Seconds Without Biting Her Lip!

22 December 2009 6:05 AM, PST | E! Online - UK | See recent E! Online - UK news »

Whether you love or love to hate Kristen Stewart, there's no debating her incessant lip biting problem. Because of this, we have to give this 45-second clip of her new movie, The Yellow Handkerchief, a little round of applause. She may give her lips a little lick early on, but there's not a nibble to be seen. Congrats, K.Stew! Unfortunately, that's about the only good thing we can say about this clip between her and William Hurt. From the Southern accent to the trite subject matter attempting to be deep and moving, we get the idea there's a reason this flick has been shelved in the U.S. for so long. »

International Robin Hood Trailer

21 December 2009 4:05 PM, PST | ScreenRant.com | See recent Screen Rant news »

The first teaser trailer for Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood appeared online last week, giving us our first proper taste of the Alien director’s take on the classic character, as well as Russell Crowe’s portrayal of him. I have to say I agree with fellow Screen Rant writer Paul Young that the trailer was a little disappointing, mostly because the heavy, beating rock music overpowered everything. It wasn’t bad or anything, as what was happening on-screen looked good to me, but just the wrong choice of music Imo.

Now we have a new international trailer for Robin Hood that comes in and saves the day by remedying the problems I had with the first (domestic) teaser. It does this by replacing the heavy beating rock music (which was reminiscent of the second Clash of the Titans trailer) to some which is far more suited to the movie, »

New International Robin Hood Trailer

21 December 2009 9:22 AM, PST | Collider.com | See recent Collider.com news »

If you’re the kind of person that needs dialogue in a movie trailer, the new international Robin Hood trailer is for you.  Because unlike the first trailer (from last week) which featured almost no dialogue and a lot of music, this new one is a more straight forward selling of the movie.

While the story of Robin Hood has been told a million times in movies and on TV, I’ll admit to being very excited about this new version.  After all, with Ridley Scott directing and a cast featuring Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, William Hurt, Mark Strong, Danny Huston, and Max von Sydow, how can you not be?  Also, as a huge fan of Gladiator, I’m extremely excited to see Crowe and Scott team up again on an action film.

Hit the jump to check out the trailer.  Robin Hood gets released May 14, 2010.
