And My Best Picture Nominees would have been (2000s)

Nothing like a Sunday morning listening to an Oscar Podcast from Sasha Stone, Craig Kennedy, and Ryan Adams.  It's a cloudy day in Boston, and I loved listening to the 2005 podcast, talking about Brokeback vs. Crash, Capote and the great Phillip Seymour Hoffman and so much more.  Over the 2000s I have always picked my top five or ten of the year, the so called "Best Pictures."  Here are my Best Picture nominees from the 2000s.
