I don’t mean this in a “movies suck now” kind of way, I actually think 2022 was a pretty good year for movies and 2024 will probably be better

but yeesh, 2023 seemed like a particularly bleak year for film. of those I’ve seen on this list, the only ones I’d heartily recommend are Bottoms and Nimona. maybe Beau is Afraid and Infinity Pool, but those are definitely not for everyone. oh and the TMNT movie was a lot of fun

(I haven’t seen Flower Moon yet so don’t get mad at me, Scorsesebros)

but please feel free to CMV and recommend any good movies from this year, whether they’re in this image or not!

    Yeah, I get that, a lot of movies and shows bug me when they get like the most charismatic guy in hollywood to play the space nazi or asshole with superpowers or something but I felt like they did a pretty good job of demonstrating how the characters were victims of circumstances created by the system? Lol, I mean, I’d like to say I don’t think anybody walked away from watching the movie thinking that it was endorsement of that kind of behavior, but we know how people are nowadays. So, yeah, I get ya.
