So far nothing I voted for shows up on these lists. I am sure Crimson Peak will show up either on 75 to 100 or 50 to 75. Jurassic World will be 26 or 27.

I voted for Scouts Guide.  It's one of my faves of the year.  Did anyone else even see it?  And for those who did, didn't you find the humour to be well...humorous?  There was a lot to like about it and it was incredibly smart.

 

MJ2 is just horrid, can't believe there were enough people who liked it enough to get it on here.

Compton is about where it should be imo.

Never heard of 22.

 

Good job so far GRIM.

The Revenant

A revenge drama starring DiCaprio and Hardy directed by Inarritu which was apparently really hard to film. I enjoyed the movie well enough, but it seems to inspire very polarized reactions here. People either love it or hate it, doesn't seem to be much in between. This will definitely get Leo his Oscar, just in time before he goes completely crazy trying to win one.

Excellent from a film perspective but just serviceable when it comes to entertainment. It's pure Oscar bait (and there's nothing wrong with that) with phenomonal acting by both DiCaprio and Hardy. The cinematography makes the absolute most out of the gorgeous scenery but the movie itself feels every bit as long as it's nearly 3 hour run time. Be ready for long portions without much dialogue. The weakest spot (just like The Force Awakens) was Dohmnall Gleeson who I thought felt miscast and sort of wooden compared to everyone else. I loved his performance in Ex Machina but I didn't buy him as the general in this. He didn't even feel like a character of that time period.

Overall, it's worth seeing but I doubt I'll revisit it. And I really hope when Cinemasins takes it on, that they do a bonus round that counts how many shots there are of just trees and nature. Because there are so damn many here that it starts to become funny. Like really I got the metaphor but this movie pounds you over the head with it. If Leo finally wins his Oscar it will be deserved but honestly he's been better in the past. So yeah, with all that said, I think it's one of 2015s best but won't end up as one of my favorites.
 

Oh and the eating snowflakes scene reminded me a lot of Sandra Bullock howling like a coyote in Gravity.

Black Swan for Men.

 

no, seriously. the way it revels in the torture of the human mind and body reminds me very much of the way Aronofsky treats his characters. Ad to that Lubezkis gorgeous photography and Innaritus long, immersive takes and you have a ride at least as intense as Mad Max 4. As to the people who find it too long - I don't know, maybe upon multiple viewing, but I experienced not a single bored second, those 2+ hours really flew by.

I kinda want some random piece of crap to take #1 just to watch all of the meltdowns and confusion it would set off. Because I'm a sadist like that.

The number 1 is Inside Out or Star Wars.
