Top Ten Movies of 2015

Looking forward to 2016 I didn't originally make a list for what I wanted to see in 2015 and while it's too late to completely look at it with fresh eyes, I can look back at some that I missed.

First I cut the movies that don't have an actual release date. I'm really excited about most of these(which is why I'm mentioning them). I use the word excited quite a bit, cause well I am. Some of the movies that I cut seem silly, but I didn't want to rank any that might not happen this year (with one exception). 10 Movies without a release date, but might come out in 2016: The Promise - Christian Bale meets Oscar Isaac and another woman in a love triangle following the fall of the Ottoman Empire.
