  1. A poll where (obviously) its tough to limit your votes: Skyfall, Budapest, Blade runner 2, Arrival and Dolor y gloria, with several others narrowly missing out. Are we gonna do this with every decade, year-by-year and then the whole decade? Would be cool goimg back to 1930s when the babyboomers joined the planet!

  2. Not sure these would have been my picks, but considering each year I only like a handful, it makes sense. out of these, my five were:

    Arrival (2016)
    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)
    Shame (2011)
    Django Unchained (2012)
    Parasite (2019)

    Almost all Villeneuve and McQueen films were here, so I guess they’re the forum’s favorites!?

    The first images of Chalamet in “Dune” were instant boners for me btw

    • 😮 You should make them a priority! 🙂 Birdman is pretty unique, I’m not sure if you will love it (I guess it is a bit polarizing, I needed a 2nd viewing to fully appreciate it, but now it’s among my all time favourites), but the acting and the film making overall is at the highest level! You will probably like Parasite (or even love it). I was not a big fan of Pain and Glory as the plot was not very interesting to me, but it is very well directed and acted. 🙂

  4. The results of this should be quite interesting – pitting the ones we liked most against one another.
    I voted for:
    Inception – It may have been Incendies, I am not sure. I love both those films for very different reasons.
    Pride – Such a feel-good film
    Dawn of the Planet of the Apes – I love those apes and would have chosen whichever of their films made it into the list.
    Get Out – Groundbreaking in many ways
    Skyfall – My favourite Bond film from my favourite Bond

  5. This is such a strong list, I love most of the movies in it!
    It was hard to leave some of them behind, but here is my top 5:
    Birdman
    Inception
    La La Land
    Arrival
    The Grand Budapest Hotel

  6. I think I went for Get Out, Incendies, Arrival, Three Billboards and La la land. Hard to remember…I did this a few days ago. 🙂
    I haven’t seen Birdman yet either… I think someone put me off because they said it was boring…but I will prioritise it since people here think of it so highly. This is so fun, I’m glad we’re continuing back towards the 30s! I thought of suggesting it as well but I’m glad it’s already been suggested! 🙂

    • The trailer for Birdman did not look appealing to me and I think that is why I had not seen it, but will make it a priority too. I am glad we will slowly be heading back through the years too!
