Top 10 movies from the year 2000
A selection of talassophobic movies.
Thalassophobia is the fear of deep bodies of water such as oceans, lakes, rivers or even pools. That phobia includes just being in deep bodies of water, the fear of the vast emptiness of the sea, being trapped underwater, or aquatic creatures lurking below in murky waters.
In general it is not the fear of the ocean itself even but the vastness and emptiness of it and how small we are compared to what might be in it, which can include the fear of man-made objects or just giant things unter water in related sub-phobias.
In other words, this list consists of movies with a deep-sea horror vibe or maritime movies with a strong emphasize on isolation and survival under or above water that might trigger thalassophobia.
No genertic aquatic creature features, martime movies, submarine movies or movies with a sinking ship included that otherwise are not ocean centric. Also no shorts and documentaries.
Though not all movies set in the ocean or another body of water trigger thalassophobia. For example phobics have no problem watching "Avatar 2" (mainly because of all the clean water).

The 73rd Academy Awards ceremony, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), honored the best of 2000 in film and took place on March 25, 2001, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, beginning at 5:30 p.m. PST / 8:30 p.m. EST. During the ceremony, AMPAS presented Academy Awards (commonly referred to as Oscars) in 23 categories. The ceremony, televised in the United States by ABC, was produced by Gil Cates and was directed by Louis J. Horvitz. Actor Steve Martin hosted the show for the first time. Three weeks earlier in a ceremony at the Regent Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California held on March 3, the Academy Awards for Technical Achievement were presented by host Renée Zellweger.
Gladiator won five awards including Best Picture. Other winners included Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and Traffic with four awards, and Almost Famous, Big Mama, Erin Brockovich, Father and Daughter, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Into the Arms of Strangers: Stories of the Kindertransport, Pollock, Quiero ser (I want to be...), U-571, and Wonder Boys with one. The telecast garnered almost 43 million viewers in the United States.
Movie subgenre which flourished in the '70s, the disaster film revolves around some great natural or man-made catastrophe, such as an earthquake, fire or airplane crash. Generally the casts were made up of a virtual army of washed-up stars and familiar character actors. Once the disaster has commenced, the cast of stars is usually confronted with human weaknesses, often falls in love, and almost always finds a bad guy to blame. In the '90s, a whole new surge of disaster films hit the cinema, boasting increased technical know-how and huge budgets. Forgoing the more star-centered human dramas of the '70s, films like Dante's Peak and Armageddon turned up the volume and crushed lots of digitized people under acres of famous landmark rubble.
