Lots of great movie ideas in these lists! Hopefully you can find the time to bring over the 2004 and 2005 lists, as well. Most of the ones on your lists (that I've seen) seem reasonable, except maybe Adaptation and Igby Does Down, both of which I was extremely disappointed in once I finally saw them. But maybe it's a generational thing, since Igby, in particular, seemed aimed at a younger audience than I've qualified for in about 20 years. I didn't see Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind anywhere on those lists, but maybe that's because it came out in 2005 or 2006? I quite liked it. And nice to see Memento getting recognized (# 4 in 2001) as I consider it one of the breakthrough films of the last several years. Nothing like telling a story backwards and pulling it off, I always say!!
