It's been awhile since I've done one of these but someone inspired me. Top 30 Movies I Want To See In 2016 I have a complete list of 45 so I will go quickly. Not many decent pictures. Sometimes it's hard to know if a specific movie won't ever get made (Gambit) or gets delayed for a long time (Avatar 2), but everyone just gives their best prediction based on what is expected. 15 Movies that have potential enough for me to mention but not good enough to make a top 30 list. Hand of Dante - Is this a real movie? Gerard Butler, Martin Scorsese, Gal Gadot, Oscar Isaac, Jason Momoa and Al Pacino, 28 Years Later - Didn't really love the first two. No Cillian Murphy. The third one is usually the worst, especially after a long delay between two and three. Tron: Ares - Didn't really like the first two. And Jared Leto ugh. The third one is usually the worst, especially after a long delay between one and two. Ash - Space horror reminds me of Prometheus from the screenshot...
To be clear, these lists include every movie that I've watched this year, whether the movie came out in 2024 or not. My list would be much smaller if that was a limitation. My film total this year was just about 200 but there are a good number of re-watches in that count. I'm about to list just about every new to me movie I've watched lately. Two movies which would probably be considered classics that I finally watched: My Cousin Vinny and Point Break I liked Vinny much more than Break. Vinny is a courtroom comedy that didn't make me laugh out loud very much but I was having fun. Joe Pesci and Marisa Tomei work well together. Joe Pesci is a treasure. Point Break hurt my ears and my eyes. There were long scenes of soft rock playing against the waves. Fade ins and outs, one or two good scenes but the whole thing felt like a slog. Neither Patrick, nor Keanu impressed me. One movie I didn't know what to make of was The Exorcist: Believer . It was both worse ...
