As in which year for each decade best represents the movies that came out of that decade? Here are my picks
1980s - 1985 (The Breakfast Club, Back to the Future, The Goonies, Rambo II, Commando, Rocky IV, The Black Cauldron, the Care Bears movie)
1990s - 1994 (The Lion King, The Mask, Ace Ventura, Dumb and Dumber, Clerks, Pulp Fiction, Forrest Gump, The Flintstones)
2000s - 2004 (Mean Girls, Spider-Man 2, Shrek 2, Shark Tale, The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, The Incredibles)
2010s - 2015 (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Mad Max: Fury Road, Minions, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Ant-Man)

I can see 2016, but I went with 2015 because it had more classic 2010s influence. Both Fury Road and Ghostbusters 2016 have feminist themes, a major topic of the 2010s, but were received COMPLETELY differently.

2005 to me isn't really as big of a movie year the same way 2004 is. 2004 just had so many screamingly 2000s movies come out across so many different genres.

Revenge of the Sith was definitely the highlight of the year. Batman Begins was also a big hit but besides that, it really wasn't a heavy-hitting year. Here's the big thing for me, OK, there was no Pixar movie released in 2005. Considering that Pixar is like, THE defining animation studio of the 2000s, that pretty much ruins its chance of being the quintessential 2000s movie year. 2004 on the other hand had two huge movies released by Pixar and Dreamworks: The Incredibles, and Shrek 2, both widely acclaimed movies regarded by many as the pinnacle of both studios. Combine this with the fact you had major movies from other 2000s franchises like Spider-Man (Raimi era) and Harry Potter, in combination with other noteworthy films like Mean Girls, Saw (marking the start of the torture porn trend in horror movies), Anchor-Man, and Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 documentary (occurring in tandem with the rise of Bush hatred), and it's pretty clear 2004 is really the year that best represents movies of the 2000s. In fact, the only other year that I can think of with more screamingly 2000s movies would be 2007. This year had many franchise films: Spider-Man 3, Shrek the Third, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, in combination with films representing various different genres such as Superbad, Juno, Pixar still in its prime with Ratatouille, Disney now making CG animated movies with Meet the Robinsons, but this year has ONE major catch. In my opinion, I consider this year the first year to start having 2010s influence in film, thanks to one particular movie: Transformers. Michael Bay's Transformers which became infamous for its CG explosions and generally shallow writing, going on to become on the defining franchises of the 2010s. In addition, you can kinda tell many franchises were beginning to decline by this point, unlike 2004 when they were more fresh.
