i know Showing Up, May December, Asteroid City and Killers of the Flower Moon would be in it.

I'm working my way through 2020 now, about halfway at this point. Plenty of movies I'm really looking forward to seeing.

I have tried to stick to regular movies here, but David Byrne’s American Utopia, My Octopus Teacher and Wolfwalkers are all top rate, and could all have been on the list.

Just over 30 movies left on my list from 2021 now. so I'm going to have to start thinking about that top ten list. Hope that a few of the remaining ones will make it.

2021 top ten:

1. The Worst Person in the World
2. The Green Knight
3. Old Henry
4. Pig
5. Dune
6. Drive My Car
7. Hit The Road
8. Red Rocket
9. The Mauritanian
10. C’mon C’mon

The whole point of this thread is to make top ten lists, but deciding which movies make it is not always easy. There’s approximately an additional 20 movies from 2021, that were not far from making the list.

100 movies left to watch from 2022. Biggest year yet, but I do hope that the majority of the top ten will be from the remaining movies. Have tried to save up, so that most of the presumably best movies are left to watch.

Have no schedule for when to finish, but the rest of the year should be a great time for watching quality movies.

Edit: 70 left from 2022 now, on December 8th around noon.
Edit: 10 left from 2022 now, on January 10th around noon.
