My list is based on what I actually saw. I didn't see films It, Logan Lucky, or Kingsman 2; which are films that I wanted to see but life intervened.

In order:

1. Blade Runner 2049
2. Dunkirk
3. Logan
4. Beauty and the Beast
5. Wonder Woman
6. Guardians of the Galaxy 2
7. War of the Planet of the Apes
8. Baby Driver
9. The Founder
10. Alien Covenant/Murder on the Orient Express (it's a tie, both flawed but enjoyable to me)

That's what I figured. It's the same with Split.

Lady Bird
Three Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri
Wind River
The Big Sick
Get Out

Lady Bird and Three Billboards are way better than everything else, though. It's a pretty big fall off between those and the rest of the pack. Hopefully The Shape of Water is as good as I'm anticipating.

1) Blade Runner 2049
2) Coco
3) Logan
4) Dunkirk
5) Your Name
6) The Big Sick
7) John Wick 2
8) Baby Driver
9) Wonder Woman
10) War for the Planet of the Apes

I feel almost sure Shape of Water will be #1, with the Disaster Artist being high as well, and I have yet to see Three Billboards and Wind River.

2016 was the worst year in a good decade for films. When La La Land is largely agreed upon to be the best film that year, you knew we were wading in shite.

I don't necessarily disagree about 2016 being disappointing, but La La Land is truly a masterpiece. I don't know what you're talking about with that point.

It’s good, but I don’t think it’s a masterpiece. It’s a Hollywood circle jerk, and given the year they’ve had so far, it couldn’t have come at a better time.
