The Top 21 Movies of the 21st Century……So Far!

HEADERbest21-560

It’s one thing to come up with a list of the best movies in any given year, but the best movies of a century that’s just in its 16th year? We Are Movie Geeks polled a group of 30 carefully-selected (and mostly St. Louis-based) movie critics, movie bloggers, movie academics, movie promoters, and just plain old movie fans and asked for a list, in order of preference, of their Top Ten Favorite Films so far this century. Somewhere among the endless superhero blockbusters, franchise reboots, and sequels, some really great movies have come out in the last 16 years. And some of them were indeed superhero blockbusters, franchise reboots, and sequels! The 21st century has another 84 years to go, and there’s no doubt that these choices will change as the years go by, but since it’s doubtful any of those polled will be around when the century ends (unless Stephen Tronicek – born in 1999 – makes it to 101), we might as well do this now. To come up with our top 21, a super-scientific algorithm was generated….just kidding! We simply scored each movie based on its rank in any given list. If a movie was #1 on any list, it received 10 points, #2 received 9 points, and so on (a movie ranked #10 received 1 point – get it?). Of course, all of these lists are highly subjective and some favorite titles will be omitted, so prepare to argue with the selections of these 30 film buffs (and yes, we’re naming names!).

HERE ARE THE RESULTS!:

21. GLADIATOR (2000 – Ridley Scott)

20. UP (2009 – Pete Docter)

19. THE LEGO MOVIE (2014 – Phil Lord)

18. NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN (2007 – The Coen Brothers)

WAMG At The SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR Press Conference (VIDEO)

sc2-df-12947_r5_lg

Co-directors Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez reunite to bring Miller’s visually stunning “Sin City” graphic novels back to the screen in 3D in FRANK MILLER’S SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR. Recently, WAMG sat down with Jessica Alba, Josh Brolin, Eva Green, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Directors Robert Rodriguez and Frank Miller, along with other members of the press, at the films LA Press Conference. Check it out below. 

In a town where justice doesn’t prevail, the desperate want vengeance and ruthless murderers find themselves with vigilantes on their heels.  Their paths cross when they converge on Sin City’s famous Kadie’s Club Pecos. The film opens with fan-favorite “Just Another Saturday Night,” when Marv (Mickey Rourke) finds himself in the center of carnage as he tries to remember the events leading up to it. “The Long, Bad Night” tells the tale of Johnny, a cocky young gambler (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) on a winning streak taking his chances with the biggest bastard of them all, Senator Roark (Powers Boothe). The central story, Miller’s critically acclaimed “A Dame To Kill For,” has Dwight McCarthy (Josh Brolin) facing his final confrontation with the woman of his dreams and his nightmares, Ava Lord (Eva Green). “Nancy’s Last Dance” follows Nancy Callahan (Jessica Alba) in the wake of John Hartigan’s (Bruce Willis) death.  On a downward spiral filled with grief, she will stop at nothing to get revenge.

SIN CITY 2 Still Flashing That Elusive Carrot

sin city2

It appears every once in awhile we are going to get a little morsel of information about a SIN CITY 2 film that is just going to drive fan reaction into a frenzy and carry the notion that the film is actually going to happen for another couple of months.  At this stage of the game, we will be lucky to ever see  SIN CITY 2, particularly one that is A) directed by Robert Rodriguez or B) nearly as compelling and fascinating as the first one.  Today comes that little bit of news for the end of 2009, and it comes to us from Comics 2 Film at Mania.com.

They caught up with producer Stephen L’Heureux who confirmed that SIN CITY 2 would be rolling before cameras in the second half of 2010.  As with the first film, Frank Miller will be co-directing with Rodriguez, but, unlike the first film, this one will not be based on one of Miller’s graphic novels.  Instead, it will be a wholly original screenplay written by Miller for the screen.

L’Heureux also had this to say:

There’s also talk, of course, of ‘Sin City 3‘.

Pardon my cynicism, but I will believe it when I see it.

What do you think?  Will SIN CITY 2 actually happen?  What do you think of it being an original screenplay by Miller?  Which characters from the first film would you just be clamoring to see more of?  Let us know by commenting below.
