Ranking the Best Picture Oscar Lineups of the 2000s

I've still got over 100 Best Picture nominees to see, but I've seen most from recent decades. Keep in mind, these are my rankings of the Best Picture lineups, and not the winners. (Note: I thought the 2010s were too short to rank at the moment.) Winners are in bold and pictured below.

2009 CinSpec Awards

Films I still need to see include: The Stoning of Soraya M., Of Time and City, The Damned United, Valhalla Rising, Tetro, Revanche, Police, Adjective, Disgrace, Paranormal Activity, Thirst, The Soloist, The Limits of Control, Taking Woodstock, Big Fan, Whip It, and Rudo y Cursi.

Best Film Editing: 2000s

2000: Girl on the Bridge (Joëlle Hache)

Oscar winner: Traffic (Stephen Mirrione)

Was this nominated?: No

Best Music: 2000s

UPDATE (12/10/12): I just realized that I forgot about Mihály Vig's beautiful score for Bela Tarr's Werckmeister Harmonies. So, it's replaced Ennio Morricone's win for Malena in 2000. Sorry, but I HAD to fix that.

Best Original Score:

2000: Werckmeister Harmonies (Mihály Vig)
