A guy, a crash, a volleyball- what else do you need?

I Am Legend

A remake of a Charlton Heston flick, Will Smith is determined to find a cure to a horrible plague before it wipes out all humanity.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Amazingly, the only HP on the list, but it is the one where the books and movies really started to diverge.

Catch Me If You Can

Leonardo DiCaprio dresses as a airline pilot and scams people for millions while Tom Hanks chases him all over the world. 2002

Iron Man

Okay, so technically the Hulk movies already existed, but this guy's film is really the one that started the Avengers!

Gladiator

One of many collaborations between Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott, and probably considered top 3 by most men.

United 93

One of many films made about the 9/11 terrorist attacks; it's named for one the flights that was hijacked

District 9

One of many on the list directed by Peter Jackson, but this one features no Hobbits or giant apes and instead has aliens!

Inside Man

One of the best ever of the "who done it" films, even though the title kind of tells you how.

The Dark Knight

Released in 2008, this is the highest rated super hero movie on the list, which is weird because "middle movies" are usually the worst in the series!

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

The first of a swashbuckling trilogy where a blacksmith goes on an outrageous pirate adventure to save his love from cursed pirates.

Casino Royale

The highest rated Bond movie, and the first in the Daniel Craig era.

Almost Famous

This 2000 movie features a young boy who writes a column in "Rolling Stone" about a band that he follows around.

LOTR: The Fellowship of the Ring

This 2001 film is part of the same trilogy as the #1 overall, but was the 1st on the series.

Finding Nemo

This 2003 movie is the highest rated animated movie (but not the biggest money maker!)

Batman Begins

This 2005 film started a new age of super hero films and the generation of "reboots" and "origin stories".

The Departed

This 2006 mob crime drama was yet another time that Leonardo diCaprio was overlooked for the Oscar!

There Will Be Blood

Slumdog Millionaire

This 2008 movie brought Baliwood to the U.S.

Up

This animated movie from 2009 was praised for its touching montage early on that made just about everyone cry.

The Hurt Locker

This low budget feature beat out Avatar in 2008 for best picture, director, screenplay, and sound. Also put Jeremy Renner "on the map" before he was Hawkeye!

LOTR: The Return of the King

This trilogy finale was released is 2003, and is largely considered one of the best movies of the 21st century.
