This hasn't been the best year for movies, but 20 years ago...that's a different story.

I'm a huge movie buff. One of my favorite pastimes is watching movies. Everything from comedy and action, even horror and a nice drama. My friend and I would frequent the theaters just to escape the world and get sucked into the latest movie to hit the big screen.

Unfortunately, 2020 wasn't too kind to the movie industry. There were several movies that I was looking forward to seeing that got pushed back to 2021. Practically every major hollywood blockbuster was pushed back. There were a few films that came out on demand, but overall, 2020 wasn't the year for movies.

While this year wasn't a good year for the movie industry, 20 years ago was. Hollywood pushed out several major films. There were quite a few iconic movies that came out in 2000. Movies that defined a generation. Movies that are still talked about today. Everything from holiday classics to the birth of the superhero movie phenomena.

I was somewhat surprised that it has been 20 years since these films were released. It doesn't seem that long ago that I was watching some of these movies in the theater. Just seeing this list and making the connection that they came out 20 years ago is enough to make you feel old. That being said, check out 20 movies that turned 20 in 2020...and let's hope that 2021 is much more kind to us in terms of movies...and in general!
