I watched 58 movies throughout the year. I caught 20 of those at the theater (including a special private theater for one), 1 on an airplane flight (coming back from Banff; I'll probably get around to writing about that movie at some point), and the rest at home.
28 of the movies I saw were actually new 2024 releases... though I have not posted reviews of all 28. I've shifted my "posting strategy" over the last year or two, and now I usually skip writing about movies If I don't at least partly enjoy them. (I might even skip a movie I find moderately entertaining, if I feel like I simply have too many other things to post about at the time).
For those reasons and others, I haven't even written yet about a couple of the movies that are at least provisionally on my "Top 10 of 2024" list. But rather than waiting to post my list until after I post those reviews, I'm just going to forge ahead now, and fill in the missing reviews as I get to them. Maybe I'll even generate a tiny bit of suspense this way. ("You liked that movie? That much? Can't wait for you to explain how that's possible.")
My Top 10 (as of right now) for 2024 are:
- Dune: Part Two
- Music by John Williams
- Inside Out 2
- Challengers
- Fly Me to the Moon
- Wolfs
- Deadpool & Wolverine
- The Fall Guy
- ¡Casa Bonita Mi Amor!
- Civil War
There's a lot of "Oscar bait" I still haven't seen, and I do usually end up liking at least one or two of those -- so, as always, I expect to revise this list a bit in the coming months. Stay tuned!
