The London Telegraph published its list of the most defining 100 films of the last 10 years and a big surprise was the as-yet-unreleased Avatar at 100 thanks to the 15-minute preview reel available at press time."This ground-breaking 3D sci-fi epic will change the way we look at movies," the Telegraph wrote, putting it alongside other path-breakers from Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Crash to The Dark Knight and Fahrenheit 9/11.
Blog reaction to the early honor was mixed, with some taking a wait-and-see attitude while others insist that everything James Cameron touches turns to gold. Daemon's Movies already rated Avatar their number-two Christmas movie this year, over The Lovely Bones and just under The Twilight Saga: New Moon.
What's your take? Is AVATAR set to be one of the most defining movies of the decade?
Another decade winds down (I'll be kicking off my 4th), and another decade list. What's your take on top films of the decade?
My vote, "The Hangover" may be this decade's animal house!
