August 15, 2008 to be exact. That's what the giant 8.15.08 on the Tropic Thunder poster on the top of the page means.

And any end of decade movie list needs to have "Requeim for a Dream" on it in some capacity. Other than that I will just echo what others are saying: see "City of God" and "Y Tu Mamma Tambien." Both are great flicks. “There will be Blood” was good. And any end of decade movie list needs to have “Requeim for a Dream” on it in some capacity.

Great suggestions. Amores Perros and Pam's Labyrinth, strongly recommended. Agree with Korean cinema: loved the revenge trilogy, Old Boy etc., must see more. First half of Wall.E as a short feature, would have made it to the greatest silent movies of all time. Pity... Wow, thanks everybody! Great suggestions.

It's about corporations, in a sense. Very 1870s 1980s-ish if you get my drift. Right up Mark Ames and the War Nerd's alley. Also, "Gran Torino" is enjoyed if it is viewed not as a pretentious film, but as a comedy. I’ve got to second “Moon” here. It’s about corporations, in a sense.
