Ten years is a long time for anything, but in today’s fast-evolving, technologically-driven world, the movie industry has experienced some of the biggest changes of all. From the cost-effective ways that allow just about anyone with a camera and editing software to make a professional film, to Pixar’s transformation into a powerhouse studio, to the return of 3D (again), technology has played a major role in the future of movies. The rules of the game may have changed, but the business stayed relatively the same, with certain fads (torture porn, penguins and vampires, oh my) overplayed like a bad Matchbox 20 song and summer tentpole films growing bigger in scope…and budget. In celebration of this ten-year anniversary, we’ve compiled lists of our favorite movies, characters, quotes and more, so grab some popcorn, sit back and relax as Bullz-Eye revisits the decade in movies.
