    Texas Chainsaw Massacre:The Next Generation.

    Lol okay this movie is godawful but it's sorta so bad it's good. It's part of a group of slasher sequels that everyone hates that I enjoy. Others include Jason Goes to Hell, Halloween 5 and 6, and Freddy's Revenge.

    I need to see Blow Out, Sisters, and Scarface.

    Essential De Palma. I'm quite envious that you will be seeing these for the first time

    Are Blow Out, Sisters, and Scarface better than Tarantino films in your opinion ?

    Well I suppose. Tarantino is an amazing filmmaker but De Palma came first so yes. With regard to De Palma's best films, they are better.

    Do you think this year has been one of the worst years for good movies ?

    I don't think so, there's been plenty of good (if not great) movies in a wide variety of genres.

    I think in terms of recent years (since 2010), 2016 was the worse in terms of amount of great movies released.

    While there have been vast array of films that are enjoyable, ones you love to watch, the majority of films for me released in the past 18 years feel very disposable. There are some greats, but unfortunately, the average movie these days gets a phenomenal praise you'd think we're about to meet a heavenly masterpiece when they're not. Or maybe I'm just getting cynical with age.

    I have been rather disappointed with many of the films I've seen this year. I've also not been as interested in many of the releases either - I think I've seen less films in the theatre this year than in any other year in the recent past.

    I can't pull together a top 10 at the moment. Hopefully there are few films coming out in Christmas that may make a favourable impression.

    Despite this, my top 3 this year absolutely blew me away, and were far more impressive than anything I've seen in a long time:

    1. Mission Impossible: Fallout
    2. Red Sparrow
    3. Avengers: Infinity War

    Honourable mentions (and possible top 10 candidates) include: Sicario: Day of the Soldado; The Equalizer 2; Operation Finale; The Girl in the Spider's Web

    Maybe today's movies are heading the same way as today's songs.

    Songs used to be great, now they are mostly rubbish.

    That's certainly possible. I'm not sure. I certainly agree on music - the old stuff was much better.

    This was really the first year that I felt I was losing touch with what was popular. There were several films which I thought were average or complete trash which were phenomenally successful in the theatres.

    What I especially liked about Fallout and Red Sparrow is that they reminded me of how films were made before. MI with its great pacing, seamlessly integrated action and 'for real' stuntwork (rather than via some dweeb at a desk behind a computer screen), and RS with its slow burn narrative and moody dark atmosphere. IW in turn was beautifully executed large scale popcorn film making with a message.

    Black Panther (2018) was one of the most over hyped movies ever.
    It was boring.

    Superman (1978) is probably the best super hero film ever.

    I wasn't particularly impressed with BP either, but I didn't think it was awful. Just average.

    Films like The Meg, Venom and the second Jurassic World film were complete tripe though.

    I've not seen the original Superman in ages - preteen for sure. I have to revisit it sometime.

    It's been a somewhat strange movie year for me in 2018. I've yet to go to the theatre, and I've not seen a film released in 2018 yet. A year for the TV shows instead!

    Out of the Past (1947)

    Rewatched this gem. One of the best film noirs ever made. Robert Mitchum cool as usual.

    Top 10 of 2018 for me:

    (Lots of superhero ones :/ Maybe they ARE making too many these days, lol)

    Halloween
    Solo
    Mission: Impossible FALLOUT
    Dead Pool 2
    Infinity War
    Black Panther
    Ready Player One
    A Quiet Place
    Ant-Man & The Wasp
    Death Wish


    I know I'm missing some obvious good movies, but this list only includes ones I've seen. I'm sure Creed II would rank very high, but unfortunately I still haven't seen it.

    Incredibles II and A Quiet Place were my favorites. I also enjoyed Halloween, Black Panther, Mission: Impossible - Fallout, Deadpool 2, and Ready Player One. Overall though I thought 2017 was a much stronger year for films.

    M:2 4K Well this presentation has surprised me it's considerably better than the Bluray, I always thought this film maybe the weakest visually though I am quite impressed at an often lush detailed image. The film has never looked better, its still hilariously bad though a much easier watch this time round.

    What a blast, loved this one as much as the last one. So much fun, action and the tech in it and how it is manipulated is just brilliant!

    This year two films were in a class of their own in my opinion:

    - Cold War (Pawel Pawlikowski)
    - Suspiria (Luca Guadagnino)
