neekafat 10.15.17	Mother, Wind River, John Wick 2, The Big Sleep are all my favorites Logan Lucky was really good too
tempest-- 10.15.17	Get Out and Baby Driver
Futures 10.15.17	wind river is a great movie not enough people saw.
Divaman 10.16.17	Logan was the best superhero flick this year.
ScuroFantasma 10.16.17	I absolutely loved Blade Runner. Also Baby Driver and Kingsman 2 were a lot of fun. Edit: oh yeah Logan [2] loved that too.
PayneTiger777 10.16.17	So many great movies this year. Blade Runner 2049 is one of the best science fiction films I've ever seen. John Wick 2 is one of the best action films I've ever seen. Logan, Wonder Woman, and IT were awesome as well.
bloc 10.16.17	The 2 monkey movies this year fuckin ruled: Planet of the Apes and Skull Island
EyesWideShut 10.16.17	The Void
budgie 10.16.17	the blackcoat's daughter is my #1 so far, though it had limited in 2015
neekafat 10.16.17	Blade Runner 2049 was a mess, I really liked it though but I don't understand everyone splurging all over it
neekafat 10.16.17	"The 2 monkey movies this year fuckin ruled" [2] Fuck yeah my dude
theacademy 10.16.17	all of them are good
Futures 10.16.17	Blade Runner 2049 was a mess, I really liked it though but I don't understand everyone splurging all over it this sentence doesn't make any sense at all.
budgie 10.16.17	yes it does
Futures 10.16.17	is english your first language?
Faraudo 10.16.17	Blade Runner 2049 owned the year for me. There's also Logan, mother! A Ghost Story, John Wick 2, Gerald's Game, It, The Beguiled, Baby Driver, Alien Covenant, It Comes At Night, Get Out.
budgie 10.16.17	bullshit, awesome horrors this year
Deathconscious 10.16.17	John Wick was just a super average action movie to me, i didnt get the love. not even remotely interested in watching the second one.
JeetJeet 10.16.17	Bladerunner 2049. A Cure For Wellness. The Void. Baby Driver. Song to Song. John Wick 2. Ghost in The Shell. The Beguiled. Atomic Blonde. Raw. Wind River. Get Out.
zaruyache 10.16.17	raw is on my shortlist thanks to netflix. Apparently there were a ton of acclaimed horror films this year that I also need to check out.
JeetJeet 10.16.17	Raw might just be the best horror flick I've seen this year, right next to The Void. Both movies made my stomach turn, which isnt easy to do.
Deathconscious 10.16.17	want to see A Cure for Wellness, Baby Driver, Blade Runner, Kingsman 2, Logan, Passengers...also want to see Ghost In the Shell. im not expecting much but im curious. havent seen a lot of 2017 movies yet, but Okja and I Don't Feel At Home In This World Anymore were pretty great.
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	Gerald's Game
Faraudo 10.16.17	Raw underwhelmed me quite a lot tbh, expected way more gore.
matbla00 10.16.17	A cure... is pretentious Baby driver is just ok Blade runner came out to be my biggest disappointment in months Logan is cool Did not see ghost in the shell however it seems to have a nice 'neon' imagery and style
Faraudo 10.16.17	Blade runner came out to be my biggest disappointment in months Logan is cool Did not see ghost in the shell however it seems to have a nice 'neon' imagery and style Blade Runner has nice´neon´ imagery and style.
matbla00 10.16.17	I saw raw on a festival, my (low) expectations were met- not really worthwhile
matbla00 10.16.17	Oh, stop it. sure it does, and I loved the cinematography, scenography, visuals at large. I even did like the way it was shot. The script and the message, triviality of the film, was however disappointing (and so was Ford)
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	Yup. A film can look beautiful in every way and still be a bad film because of bad writing. People seem to think direction or style trump everything else. No, I need good writing.
Futures 10.16.17	2049 has excellent writing
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	I can't say, I haven't seen it yet, but if it's anything like the original, it'll be a hot mess.
matbla00 10.16.17	I loved the original, even wrote a paper on it for my philosophy course (analyzing the personhood and the issue of rights in the film) and the new one was a bummer
JeetJeet 10.16.17	A Cure For Wellness and Raw were excellent wtf. And Logan was pretty meh tbh
Faraudo 10.16.17	"2049 has excellent writing" It does. This seems to be a case of "i'm gonna diss the new one just because the first movie is a cult classic." Give 2049 10-20 years, and it will become a classic, too. It'll probably age even better than the original.
matbla00 10.16.17	Btw there exists a black and white version of Logan, I think it was in limited distribution in the us. The photos are really great, recommend y'all to have a look at them
matbla00 10.16.17	I will come back here tomorrow (actually today but pm) and explain thoroughly why the sequel sucked (a little) and is only a solid production while the original was a masterpiece
Faraudo 10.16.17	Raw was "ok" in terms of story, cinematography and performances; but again, it dissapointed me quite a lot in terms of gore. I read an article that said people were storming out of theaters and puking with certain scenes and whatnot. Even Gerald's Game grossed me out way more than Raw, that one very gory scene near the end had me on the edge.
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	I watched the original Blade Runner right after reading the novel, so I kinda hated the film. Because I haven't read the book or seen the film in quite a few years now, I might be less averse to the film if I watch it again. I'm gonna come back to the original Blade Runner and see if I can enjoy it on its own merits. Then I'm gonna watch the new movie and see how it holds up as a sequel. Then I'm gonna read the book again and realise that everything about the film is bad.
JeetJeet 10.16.17	Geralds Game was good. Hell even great, until it jumped the shark at the end.
Hawks 10.16.17	It, Get Out and Baby Driver are the best ones I've seen this year.
Faraudo 10.16.17	"I watched the original Blade Runner right after reading the novel, so I kinda hated the film.

Then I'm gonna read the book again and realise that everything about the film is bad." New film is great and never relies on nostalgia, unlike plenty of sequels, like The Force Awakens, for example.
matbla00 10.16.17	There were a few 'indie' films this year ( e.g. A ghost story) that deserve a shot
Faraudo 10.16.17	On that we agree, A Ghost story is a great film.
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	"Geralds Game was good. Hell even great, until it jumped the shark at the end." The ending is what turned that film from merely "great" to "one of the best horror films of the decade".
Futures 10.16.17	fuck i gotta see a ghost story. so annoying it wasn't a wider release. really wanted to see it when it came out.
matbla00 10.16.17	Futures, as a lib. I gotta ask, who is Wario?
Futures 10.16.17	lmao it's a dril tweet. wario is the fat guy in purple and yellow from nintendo.
matbla00 10.16.17	Haha ok, already started to hope for some support of libertarianism in here
zaruyache 10.16.17	I didn't really love the original film either snox, but I thought 2049 was fantastic. Definitely check it out. You barely need to have seen the first film to get the story, too.
neekafat 10.16.17	Remember that one scene about rising up against the humans that came up in the middle of nowhere and has nothing to do with the rest of the movie and clearly was intended to set up some kind of Matrix-style sequel? Not to mention the occasional hand-holding on the part of the screenwriters
Futures 10.16.17	in the middle of nowhere? what? hand-holding? literally what one flashback i think.
silentstar 10.16.17	>It, Get Out and Baby Driver are the best ones I've seen this year that's basically my list too - i'd add Good Time and The Big Sick as well
zaruyache 10.16.17	the potential war is mentioned before tho, and that prostitute's storyline also shows something else shady is going on, so I didn't find the writing there to be that shaky. It better justifies what Deckard was doing in the desert besides just scavenging old casino whiskey and listening to Elvis.
Alastor 10.16.17	Blade Runner (Final Cut): 10/10 Blade Runner 2049: 8/10
tom79 10.16.17	I will sift through these replies. cheers guys.
DoofusWainwright 10.16.17	Blade Runner 2049: 10/10 Baby Driver: 9/10 Dunkirk: 8.5/10 War for the Planet of the Apes: 7.5/10 Trainspotting 2: 7.5/10 Kong, Skull Island: 6.5/10 It: 6:10 Alien, Covenant: 4.5/10 That’s all I’ve seen in the cinema this year
foxblood 10.16.17	baby driver was abysmal imo, haven't seen anything good yet unfortunately
DoofusWainwright 10.16.17	The final third was too silly but I liked the rest :/ I’m easy to please with movies, well more so than with music
WetHarmonica1916 10.16.17	Baby Driver, Split, Spiderman: Homecoming, Get Out.
Iamthe Nightstars 10.16.17	"not a good year for movies tbh" Lol, it hasn't been a good decade for movies really.
Astral Abortis 10.16.17	yeah unless you want to count all the brilliant films that have come out since 2010
furpa 10.16.17	A Ghost Story, It Comes At Night, Brigsby bear, and Wind River are all fantastic indie films you should really check out!
Clumseee 10.16.17	1. The Meyerowitz Stories 2. Get Out 3. Baby Driver 4. It Comes at Night 5. It
Toad 10.16.17	the first two-thirds of blade runner are excellent and the last third really disappointed me. none of the characters' motivations are clear (why is there a triangle conflict when there are only two sides: save/preserve the kid and kill the kid) and the happy ending, with the snow and the glass, is so stock that it killed me. the original bladerunner raised all these interesting questions about humanity vs. android whereas the second pushed that aside and just assumed robots as a second race. so much of the film is absolutely gorgeous though - the fight scene in the casino made the entire movie worth watching, even though the resolution (oh this guy isn't affected by punches. i guess he's a robot too, let's have a drink) is dumb as hell
zaruyache 10.16.17	Uh the robot guy wants the child so he can experiment on her to build himself a slave army; the resistance wants her to lead then to freedom. Kind of different sides.
gryndstone 10.16.17	Baby Driver is the most fun I've had watching a movie this year
Faraudo 10.17.17	1. Blade Runner 2049: Disliking it makes you a snobby hipster that can't be satisfied with anything. It is an incredible movie and it really hurts me to watch it's box office numbers. Best sci-fi movie of the decade, at the very least. 2. Logan. 3. It Comes At Night. 4. It. 5. Baby Driver.
Faraudo 10.17.17	Also, how can anyone actually say that there's no "new themes" introduced on the film. I mean, the main plot point establishes (SPOILER ALERT) replicant pregnancy as a thing. An android has an actual child.
Astral Abortis 10.17.17	"I mean, the main plot point establishes (SPOILER ALERT) replicant pregnancy as a thing. An android has an actual child." Sounds like a bad plot
BlackwaterPork 10.17.17	I’d say Logan is the one to watch
Faraudo 10.17.17	"Sounds like a bad plot" I actually found that pretty interesting, I've never thought about it, nor have I seen it elsewhere. "I’d say Logan is the one to watch" It is an incredible movie, and almost a tie with 2049.
