30. Batman and Robin: Return of the Caped Crusaders   Give it up for the only good DC movie this year, folks! An homage to Batman in the ‘60’s. Honestly, I feel a little bit guilty not putting this higher, because it really is a top quality homage. They got several of the old cast... Continue Reading →

35. The Witch     Funnily enough, The Witch is a movie that probably would’ve been a lot more improved if… well… there wasn’t actually a Witch. Because the movie really works as a rather good psychological drama about a troubled young girl in an isolated Puritan household as things collapse around them. As a straight... Continue Reading →

40. Lights Out Woo! Another horror movie! Honestly, I think it says something about the quality of horror movies this year if a movie this decent ranks as mid-to-low tier out of all I’ve seen thus far. It’s a solid movie with an interesting premise and some good characterisation and scares. Admittedly, I was probably a little more... Continue Reading →

45. Pete's Dragon     Pete’s Dragon is the sort of a homely Disney family movie you don’t see that often these days. And, honestly, while I feel a bit guilty for not putting this movie higher, I just thought it was alright. Well made, but just alright. Well paced, well told, but just alright. There weren't...

50. Finding Dory     Yeah, Finding Dory is this low. No joke, I thought this movie was painfully average. It's a shame because Finding Nemo is one of my biggest nostalgic favourites and probably one of my favourite Pixar movies. However, while I’m not against Pixar sequels/prequels as much as some people, I was... Continue Reading →

  55. Phantom Boy     While I thought this year was fairly disappointing in terms of films overall, it was notable to me personally for one major reason. This year was the first year I started to take an active interest in animated films made outside of America/Japan. Sure, I’d seen a few here... Continue Reading →

60. The Finest Hours Boy… this movie sure existed didn’t it? Okay okay, jokes aside, I actually really like Chris Pine as a leading man. He brings this sense of charm and fun to so many of his role that he’s effortlessly watchable and memorable for me. That said, he was badly miscast in this... Continue Reading →

Part 2 of my grand countdown. Also the part that will probably piss people off the most. Going after a few decently liked gooses here. Fortunately that doesn't include this first one... 65. Dad's Army   Okay, those of you in America/outside of Britain may be wondering exactly what this is. Dad’s Army was a British... Continue Reading →

Note: This was originally written in January of 2017 for a forum project. So it's possibly a touch out of date. (I don't really miss Green Lantern, don't worry.)   Well, it's that time of the year again. A time of celebration and remembrance. A time to look back at all the great memories we...

Hail and well met, good sirs and welcome to my humble abode… … …Well, I say ‘humble abode’. It’s a website. And a blog. Not really prime living conditions, to be honest. And also probably not all that humble either, now that I think about it. Anyway, for those of you who have just stumbled... Continue Reading →
