This list means nothing, except to me. It's a list of 50 movies that gave me pleasure over the past decade. I can say without reservation that I would watch any of these again. Would I say that all of them are great films, however great films are supposed to be defined? Probably not. But that's nothing you need to worry about. Because it's my list.
So, here's my list of such films. Some of these I've written about before, and I briefly considered digging back to find their respective posts, but in some cases I've written about these films multiple times and I really don't feel like doing all that work. Sorry for that, but there is a search function on this blog if you're interested! These are in no particular order, just the order in which I think of them whilst writing this post. (I usually italicize film titles in my posts, but since this is literally a list of titles, I'm eschewing the italics for now.)
1. Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones
2. Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
3. The Lord of the Rings (all three films)
4. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

I wonder if I've even SEEN 50 movies in the Aughts. Probably, with them leaning heavily pre-Lydia (2004).
