BOT's Top 25 Movies of 2018 | The forums can't fight the friction

Recommended Posts



I Liked Fallout, and it made my list. But I just thought it was a capable and fun action movie, as opposed to some transcendent one that should be super high on such a list.

why should "transcendent" films be automatically considered any better than other type of films?

I used "transcendent" in the sense of "surpassing or excelling others of its kind". I just meant that Fallout is a regular good movie and Annihilation is much better than that.

in my opinion MI:Fallout is magnificent and Annihilation is dogshit.

Obviously, this whole thread is about personal opinions.

that's my point, and apparently in most of the forums opinions, mission impossible is a better film than annihilation...

 

Its an arbitrary list. doesn't matter what wins or loses , its all meaningless.

Is there a place where I can find the full list of 171 films? Very interested to see where all the films landed.

 

Burning and Shoplifters getting near the 25 is really cool to me because it shows openness to foreign features.

 

I am overall happy with the 25.

I really enjoyed MIF...so no problems with it being number one.

ASIB is sych a powerful film and imho the best picture of the year and the best director of the year.

Spiderverse?  WTF...you people have a strange fetish for everything Marvel.

Won't You Be My Neighbor brought me to tears.  Such a great film.

Hereditary is bullocks.

AQP is good but too silly for me.

Black Panther should be closer to 40 instead of the top 10.

Fallout is a disappointing pick imo, but it fits the 'serious action/Nolan/sci-fi' trend that we usually go with.  There was also lots of good stuff right below it.

 

Like seriously, I think we're getting one note here

2012 - TDKR

2013 - Gravity

2014 - Interstellar

2015 - Mad Max

2016 - Arrival

2017 - Dunkirk

2018 - Fallout

 

Granted, we are a white male dominated board so it makes sense.

Not too much to complain about (except the Buster Scruggs SNUB). Glad the Game Night Goons and the Leave No Trace Gang came out in force.

 

Thanks for running this again, @grim22.

 

 

Sadly there was no 3-for-1 deal at the supermarket this time.

I...I still haven't seen Fallout :ph34r:

I still haven't either...but it's next on my list since I made it through all the 2018 supers last week...guess I should make it a priority to get done soon so I can tease y'all, or wonder why one of my favorite series had to wait this long to hit #1:)...(my spouse is not a fan of the series, so I tend to watch them all on digital services now...he only went to the 1st with me in theaters:)...
