Last week, my friend Andrew Boring and I had a discussion about the best albums of the decade so far, afterwards I released a list in picture form here on the blog. Well, this week we had another discussion, this time about the best movies of the decade so far! I encourage everyone to go listen to it here, I realize it is very lengthy, but I think it has some fun discussion about what has come out and the process of making this top 10. This here list serves as an accompaniment (because you’re supposed to go listen, not just look at it and go hmmm).
