It's not in any particular order but you're free to add whatever you want (and by things I mean it could be anything like movies, TV shows, video games, devices, etc. Just don't add troll items please).
The internet was a lot slower back in the 90s but it was getting better in the 2000s. It was also a time where big name sites like YouTube, Facebook and Wikipedia started.

It wasn't even that good back then though. I mean what was there? A guy in a zoo? Lame! (Yes I stole that joke from an Odd1sout video)

It is consistently one of the 10 most popular websites ranked by the Similarweb and former Alexa; as of 2022, Wikipedia was ranked the 7th most popular site. It is hosted by the Wikimedia Foundation, an American non-profit organization funded mainly through donations.

Bottom two are only entertainemnt based. Anyway, this is one of the best films to ever come out of the 2000s. It won over multiple audiences, pleased hundreds of critics and won many awards. It truly is a modern day classic to for many generations to watch.
Yes it may have been a great trilogy but this is subjective. (Nothing wrong with that. Just pointing it out)
Say what you will about CGI but sometimes filmmakers eventually have to use it. The 2000s is where it started to get better (a really good use of it was in The Two Towers where Gollum lools more realistic than any CGI character at that time).
The effects in most movies were good.
The best era of punk rock in my opinion. We got so many great bands, such as Blink-182 and Green Day.
