Cellar Field of 64, #5: recent films

Nominate your favorite films since 2000. The nominations are part of the seeding, so don't just list at random - only mention your favorites. If others have already mentioned films you like, you can second them. Seconding goes into the seeding too.

For eligibility of films we'll rely on imdb.com's release year.

To get a good list of films to choose from, you can use IMDB's advanced search feature.

http://www.imdb.com/list

In section 2 of that page, you can enter a year or range of years. In section 3, exclude TV and video stuff using the drop-down boxes. Set a minimum of 3000 voters to limit your results to most popular films. In section 4, hide AKA titles.
