 Top ten films of the decade so far?
Since we have three full years under our belt now, I thought it might be interesting and fun to compile lists of the ten best/favorite films of the decade so far. Here is mine: http://www.worldofkj.com/article.php?i=837

1. Drive 2. Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol 3. The Expendables 4. Jack Reacher 5. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey 6. The Descendants 7. Midnight in Paris 8. Green Zone 9. Life of Pi 10. Paranormal Activity 3
That was difficult. You should always do a Top 12. It's so hard to form a Top 10, there's always stragglers.
Honourable mentions: Solitary Man, Knight & Day and The Skin I Live In.
