"When 2010 began, only comic-book geeks knew who the Avengers were. However, with the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe came the rise of franchises in general. 'Star Wars' returned, as did 'Jurassic Park,' 'Ghostbusters,' 'Men in Black,' 'Planet of the Apes,' 'Terminator,' and 'Mad Max.' Universal tried to launch their own Monsters Universe, and Warner Bros likewise failed to bring their planned King Arthur series to fruition. What hadn't changed over those years was the quality of movies. Never before had there been such an array of diverse stories being told on screen, with LGBTQ+ cinema blossoming and horror filmmakers scoring huge box office hits. To celebrate this decade, we have gathered together to create this list of the best movies of the 2010s." - cinemablend.com
