When people say "80's movies" there's generally an agreed upon "list" of classic, decade-defining movies that make up its cultural canon. Dame with the 90s. Now that some time is past, i'm hoping to compile a list for 2000-2009. Stuff like Mean Girls, American Psycho, Wedding Crashers et cetra. Hoping for more than just Superheroes.
