Ten Years Older And Wrinkle Free

Over the last week I have been slowly been creating my best of the decade list for the folks at the EZ1 Productions message board. Nomination are being taking for not only the "Best Films of the Decade" but also a slew of other categories (e.g. Best Actor, Best Director, Most Overrated Film, etc.) The difficulty of having ten years worth of films to choose from is that my list keeps changing on a daily basis. For example, the list I submitted for the L.A.M.B. site a few weeks ago is slightly different to the one below. Regardless consider this my "official" selection of favourite films from the past decade.
