xkcd movie challenge

Today's XKCD is a challenge to name a movie that:
  • You genuinely like
  • Came out after 2000
  • Scores under 50% on Rotten Tomatoes
The challenge for me is the "After 2000" part. So many movies in the late 90s (or in 2000 itself) fit the rest of the bill. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas! Orgazmo! The Perfect Storm! Alien 3! Robin Hood Men In Tights! But I'm A Cheerleader! Tank Girl! I think that leaves K-Pax (2001), at 41%.

I was wondering about why the date limitation until I read the XKCD instance. Now, I wonder about whether the particular date is an absolute rather than subjective (due to how people change in the way that we perceive things) one and why.
