Last time you heard from us, we rounded up some of our favorite movies that have a game aspect to them. 

This week, we each set out to identify the best movie year of the past two decades and then defend our decision with five movies from that year.

Listen all the way to the end to hear Jared and Chris get blindsided by some unexpected hot takes from Bruce about a particular Mark Wahlberg movie!

Sadly, and here's a spoiler warning I guess, but none of us picked 2007 and thus this week there is no talk about BEE MOVIE, the 2007 computer-animated comedy starring Jerry Seinfeld and Renée Zellweger.
Hot Fuzz 2007 
Zodiac 2007 
Grindhouse 2007 
No Country for Old Men 2007 
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story 2007 
Bully 2012 
Silver Linings Playbook 2012 
Lincoln 2012 
Life of Pi 2012 
Django Unchained 2012 
First Reformed 2017 
Mandy 2018 
Sorry to Bother You 2018 
Mission: Impossible – Fallout 2018 
Roma 2018

Just to be Nominated is hosted and produced by Chris Lay, the podcast operations manager for Lee, along with Bruce Miller, the editor of the Sioux City Journal, and Jared McNett, a reporter for the Globe Gazette in Mason City, Iowa.
