the good: Endgame

the okay: Aladdin

the bad: Velvet Buzzsaw, Glass

the trash: Hellboy

yeah it's been great! lol

I still have so much to see... And there's still so much that's going to be released lol. I guess I won't be sorta done with 2019 halfway through 2020.

This year has been trash. Us was decent, John Wick 3 was alright, Avengers: Endgame was trash. No other movies have motivated me to see them in theaters. Toy Story 4 is tempting, but it is probably a copy of Toy Story 3, which is a copy of Toy Story 2, which is a copy of Toy Story. I'm done with the MCU for the most part, and don't feel the drive to see Spider-Man: Far From Home which, even moreso than the first, has been advertised as a kid's movie. Part of me wishes I enjoyed the gimmicks of horror films so I could see something like Midsommar. The only two films that I might entertain seeing in theaters right now are Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Ford v Ferrari.

Parasite
John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum
Rocketman
Avengers: Endgame
Booksmart
Glass
Hotel Mumbai
Wild Rose
Us

These films are merely just a bunch of gems hiding in a really big pile of shit. Not even the first half of 2018 sucked this bad.

Toy Story 2, which is a copy of Toy Story.

Please explain.

It's been a weird year, I do expect the latter half to be much better. I watched 27 films, still need to watch Booksmart, Hotel Mumbai, Rocketman and Longshot.

So far:

1. Avengers: Endgame
2. Fighting with My Family
3. Toy Story 4
4. Alita: Battle Angel
5. John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum
6. Shazam!
7. Spider-Man: Far From Home
8. Gully Boy (Bollywood film)
9. Captain Marvel
10. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World

That's what you get when Gosling goes on holiday... (the quality of the film he's done this decade )

But seriously, what's best? 20 good films or three masterpieces?
Imo, and obviously it's very subjective...last year there were two masterpieces: First Man and Roma.
And this year, I've already seen one with Parasite. So, if I see two other... (Sciamma, Gray...).
