yes.  and so did Dark Knight Rises.  twice.  this is his 4th win it's not even funny.  bet if we go back to 2002 then Insomnia would win that.

 

We should do a throwback 2008 list @Telemachos, just so Nolan can have a 5th win

Let's not pretend Dunkirk is that good

I'm really curious what our #1 of 2018 will be. Nothing immediately stands out.

 

No kidding. Haven’t seen a 2018 film yet. Probably the first one I’ll check out is BP.

[KJsooner]

Do not bring Gravity into this discussion. Sci-fi masterpiece.

[MOVIEGUY]

I think it's a good list. You babies should just be happy your precious Blade Runner made it so high. The only movie on the list that I saw and didn't care for was The Post. Also Baby Driver's pretty overrated, by far my least favorite Edgar Wright movie. Also also it would have been cool if Good Time made the list but oh well. Thanks for putting it together!

Hail Nolan.

#1 of 2011 - Winding Refn

#1 of 2012 - Nolan

#1 of 2013 - Cuaron

#1 of 2014 - Nolan

#1 of 2015 - Miller

#1 of 2016 - Villeneuve

#1 of 2017 - Nolan

 

Nolan, Villeneuve, Winding Refn and Miller all have nothing next year, which leaves us with Cuaron's Roma as our #1 of 2018

Past winners

Dunkirk

Arrival

Mad Max

Interstellar

Gravity

TDKR

 

I reckon to fit the trend it’s something like: Infinity War, Annihilation, Black Panther, Roma or First Man

 

Id place a bet on it being First Man (maybe Roma but I think that’s foreign language which will turn off half of the list voters at least).  These lists gravitate toward high-concept fanboy films winning it out (which is Nolan’s specialty)

@Telemachos

[Kalo]

Thor Ragnarok not making the top 25 and Blade Runner losing to Dunkirk... *Sigh* that's BOT for ya. 

 

Also no Logan Lucky . 

 

Glad Wonder Woman made the top 5 though. my second favorite SH film of the year.

@Jake Gittes, look at how long Pink's write-up is.

 

[That One Girl]

So...Pink gave Dunkirk a B+, correct?

[Ethan Hunt]

I guess i would put money on Black Panther or First Man right now.

[Fancyarcher]

Super pleased that Dunkirk is #1. Second best movie of the year for me.

25	Girls Trip	337
29	Mother!	314

 

24 points were needed. So, given his taste is generally solid, there's a real possibility mother! missed largely or entirely due to @aabattery's laziness

[B D Joe]

I predict Incredibles 2 will win next year.

He said something about waiting until after the list to see it.  Shame on him
