2003 would have to be Kill Bill, of course. My favorite director. And I think QT did a great job with a new genre. He's used to crime epics such as PF, RD and JB, and his first attempt at a ninja-esque samuri movie was excellent. Clever, witty dialogue we know QT for, excellent story-telling, super-cool characters that seem to blister off the screen... Just all around great.

Of 2004? Probably Mystic River. It's made more of an impact for this year than last, with the Oscars and everything. It's a 2003 film, but as far as impact I'm putting it in my own category of 2004.

I'm going to see 21 Grams this Friday. Can't wait.
