2010-2021, a gem of a period for films! - Blu-ray Forum

My recent trans-Atlantic flight from Paris to Toronto was delayed by almost 2 hours after boarding the plane due to a maintenance issue that took relatively more time to resolve as the passengers were already on the plane. This delay allowed me to browse the inflight entertainment, which I normally skip unless watching/catching up on TV shows, prompting me to think about recent films.

The 2010s (2010-2019) have been a gem of a period for films. I added 2020-21 to the mix as well as many films that were slated to release in 2019 were delayed due to the pandemic. Let's look at some of the memorable films from this period:

In 2010, we were astonished by Inception (2010), which had a mind-bending concept of planting or extracting information in dreams (a similar concept was seen in 2006's Paprika as well). The cinematography and the score elevated the experience to make this one of the best movie-watching experiences. The treatment of the story meant that many needed multiple viewings to get the finer points of the film.

Skyfall (2012) had eye-catching cinematography and a cool performance by Javier Bardem as the former 00 turned antagonist.

The Tale of the Princess Kaguka (2013) was another brilliant work by Studio Ghibli.

The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) combined elements from multiple genres to create a unique visually striking environment.

Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) , a superbly photographed action adventure.

The Shape of Water (2017), a different type of love story.

Joker (2019), a Taxi Driveresque take on Joker with memorable performances, cinematography, and score!

Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021) , a 4-hour superhero epic.

Dune (2021), a modern masterpiece.

Add to the above many critically acclaimed and/or popular films.

The 2000s had many memorable films such as Gladiator (2000), In the Mood for Love (2000), Amores Perros (2000), Memento (2000), Mulholland Drive (2001), The Lord of the Rings Trilogy (2001-2003), Kill Bill (2003), Casino Royale (2006), Pan's Labrinth (2006), 300 (2007), Avatar (2009), ..., .... ...., therefore, where would you put 2010-2021 period esp. in relation to 2000s?
