I didn’t watch as many movies in 2018 as I had in previous years, but I still did pretty well by most standards. An Unreal Dream: The Michael Morton Story.Under the Boardwalk: The Monopoly Story.Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.My Entire High School Sinking Into the Sea.Man vs Snake: The Long and Twisted Tale of Nibbler.I Don’t Feel at Home in This World Anymore.Horror Noire: A History of Black Horror.Bob Birdnow’s Remarkable Tale of Human Survival and the Transcendence of Self.Also note that it includes films that IMDb lists with a release date before 2010, but for which it didn’t come to Austin, TX until after the beginning of 2010. It would be too much work for me to try to also include films that I first saw somewhere other than a theater, and it would also be too much work to include films that have been released since the beginning of 2010, but for which my first viewing was after its initial run. This list only includes films that I first saw in a theater, and only during their initial run (or at film festival screenings). I’m not going to bother trying to pare it down any further, and I’m certainly not going to try to rank them so they’re presented alphabetically. I went through that list and culled it down to my top 300 films. So I decided to give it a go.Īccording to my records, I saw 1,786 unique first-run movies in a theater between Januand Decem(well, technically December 30, 2019, since I’m seeing the absolutely wonderful 1960 film The Apartment tonight rather than a new release). Since the 2010s are coming to an end, everyone is posting their top movies of the decade.
