I love the Kill Bill movies myself. This was a tough decade or I would’ve had it much higher on my list.

 

[Willie Oleson]

You mean you're not a Kill Bill fan??

Sorry, I don't want to risk getting thrown out of the Killer Bob fandom.

Creed almost made mine. Had to put it a 11. Great film.

I'm always impressed that the film works as a sequel, remake and reboot simultaneously. STAR WARS and the VACATION films tried the same approach in the same year but CREED was the only one to pull it off.

 

[DallasFanForever]

1. Argo
2. The Town
3. The Wolf of Wall Street
4. Molly’s Game
5. La La Land
6. Zero Dark Thirty
7. Sully
8. Moneyball
9. The King’s Speech
10. Lincoln

Some honorable mentions I hated to leave off..........

Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
Jackie
Deadpool
Hidden Figures
Chappaquiddick
The Dark Knight Rises
Hacksaw Ridge
Green Book

That's the way the cookie crumbles, CeeCee
I got four of my list, and that's not too bad I guess, but that doesn't mean I disagree with all the other winners (only a few)
