I'm trying to say the most recent year that actually was good for movies. I think it's 2015.
Not saying previous years weren't good/better. Saying 2016-2018 was garbage.
Like 2018 so far
A quiet place
You were never really here
Top 2 of 2018 so far for me
Infinity war
DP2
Ant man 2
3 movies that fall into the category of surprisingly competent
Sicario 2 and Equalizer 2 and spy who dumped me, haven't seen so they get their own category for now.
Everything else was fucking garbage.
2017 had less than 20 movies worth watching, take away Netflix (theater release only films) and it's less than 15.
2016 had maybe 15? Including Netflix?
Yeah I agree, 2017 was a poor year for movies. Although there was some really good movies, the ammount of good movies was a real disapointment. Blade runner, Alien covenant, Black Panther, IT are 4 movies I really enjoyed watching and have actually rewatched. The one movie for me that stands out in 2017 and it is not one many would expect, (Mayhem) I forgot about it until now. Starring the guy who played Glen on the walking dead, this movie was epic lol and a must watch.
The reason I made this post was to try and find some new gems O have not seen yet and for otherd to possibly look and see something new as well. I appreciate some of the movie ideas (a quiet place) I have not seen yet and amd downloading it now lol thanks looks good actually. I downloaded T2 Trainspotting from someone elses list as well and it was just as fucked as I expected it to be. Going to download Equalizer 2 as well I think.
I am actually going to go through 2016-2017 and post a list here soon, just because now I am currious to see how small the list is actually going to be. (
Random new movie idea for people
2015 there is a movie if you have not seen and are 25+ years old you need to watch this movie (Turbo Kid) it is simply amazing and will put a smile on anyones face who grew up in the 90s lol.

I don't even know, the years have been horrible.
Logan - this was actually good in my opinion, a strong r raged take.
Get out - enjoyed it so I'll add it here because it's really the only thriller
Blade runner - I have a soft spot here but the climax seemed horrible. Visually however it was strong and iv always enjoyed that SciFi soundtrack. Storyline seemed off.
Baby Driver - pretty enjoyable actually.
Wind river - okay two thrillers. Slow but good acting and good dramatic scenes.
I have not seen Dunkirk or Molly's game.
I also did enjoy atomic blond I guess it's my John wick. Mindless action.
Biggest disappointment in years - Alien... So much anticipation for that let down.
Typed this on my phone so it's a horrible read.
I have to disagree with Alien being a disapointment. I loved Promethius and I love how they connected the two movies. I get it though it is hard to remake these great movies, you get much better CGI but much worse acting. I guess it is all opinion though, some people say new is better.
Also on another note:
Three billboards looks amazing and I am downloading it now. Thanks bebebburns
