this will be a defining movie for the 2000's


1940's- the maltese Falcon
1950's- Rebel without a cause,
1970's- Saturday night fever,
1980's- Breakfast club, Risky Buisness
1990's- Silence of the lambs, The crow, Scream
2000's- Napolean Dynamite, American Dreamz, Team America, 8 Mile

anyone agree?

I love the Maltese Falcon \; "the stuff Dreamz are made of". Ha!

reply

You forgot the 60's.

I'd like to say that "The Graduate" was a defining movie.

As in terms of the 2000's, I don't believe that this will be a defining movie. I'd say more like "The Departed" and "The Lord of the Rings" movies.

Michael Jordan plays basketball. Charles Manson kills people. I talk- Thank You for Smoking

"defining movie"
hahahha barely anyones even heard of this movie...

reply

The Thread is not about good or famous movies. it's about movies portraying its specific decade.

like also... "Reality Bites" or "Fight Club" in the 90s...

reply

Even then I cannot see American Dreamz typifying that decade. Its just so easily forgettable.

Its that man again!!

reply

And again, it doesnt matter if it is forgettable or not. Though, if thats the case, it fits perfect, since the first decade of the 21st century was in fact totally forgettable and a shame to live and/or grow up in.

reply

why is it that you only have one movie listed for the 40s-70s (and none for the 60s and FOUR for the 2000s? What a sad, myopic and immature list from someone who obviously must not have been born before 1980.
