A list of films that defined or were defined by the decade they were made in.
Factors include: popularity & box office; cult value; memorable scenes, characters, and quotes; significant actors of the time; as representations of a genre (thriller, comedy, horror, etc); themes and issues important to the decade; as examples of special effects, and filmmaking techniques and styles of the time; as example of trends in fashion, technology, and use of language.
As this list is about films about the decade, historical films are generally omitted, with a few exceptions.
As the 2000's contained several franchises, the first film of the franchise is intended to represent the franchise as a whole.
List is in reverse-date order, then alphabetical for convenience.
List is tentative, but close to its final form.
