Dude There Will Be Blood
If I had any skills I'd be photoshopping Ashton Kutcher and Seann William Scott into Daniel Day Lewis' bowling alley right now.
Dude There Will Be Blood
Dude There Will Be Blood and Adaptation in my book are amongst the best I've ever seen
I hadn't seen you say this so apologies. Truth be told though, many of them films we listed where as you said, great but not greatest movies.I mentioned that I forgot Adaptation and added to the list.

I like Zodiac, Memento, Hurt Locker, etc. But I think the movies I'm talking about are in another league in terms of writing or filmmaking or originality, etc.
I watch a lot of horror flicks and the 2000s shits all over the 90s as far as those are concerned.
Yeah the 90s up thru 9/11 was a bad era for horror. The slasher franchises all petered out, Blockbuster taking over the rental industry meant there was less of a market for weird, low-budget shit and then the post-Scream meta bullshit was an abomination.
The 2000s at least had shit like The Descent, The Ring remake, The Mist, Trick r' Treat and Slither. The first Saw movie was pretty good too even if the rest were formulaic garbage and gave birth to crap like Hostel and Human Centipede.
The 2000s also gave rise to almost every horror movie except the ones you mentioned being PG13 CGI garbage.

The Suspiria remake was bonkers. Argento not liking it is probably a positive sign since he hasn't made anything worthwhile in 30 years.
I couldn't even finish that movie. I'd heard it was bad, but it was only $5 at Best Buy so I figured there was nothing to lose. But I was wrong, because I lost almost almost all the respect I had left for Argento after he'd already pissed almost all of it away with the abysmal Giallo.Dracula 3D
I defy anyone to name me any director who has fallen off worse than Argento.
Some people think the Bill Murray's character lived for over 10,000 years in Groundhog Day.
I disagree.
You clearly missed a lot of foreign and independent movies.
We watched this one a few weeks back, haven't seen it in years. I do wonder how long it would have taken to learn all of that...years?
