Here we go again... My 10 favorite films, albums and tracks of the year.
I feel I was able to listen to a lot more music than the last few years... mostly because I'm commuting regularly to the office, which gave me a good chance to discover new stuff. I still struggle to find obvious stuff that I should listen to, particularly among certain genres, but I'm pretty happy with my selection of music.
Same doesn't apply with movies though... There's been a lot of promising titles, but very few resonated with me.
Eddington, The Naked Gun, Life of Chuck, House of
Dynamite, After The Hunt and The Smashing Machine ranged from
mediocre to OK, whereas even some films that made my list, like Bugonia, Sorry Baby and Friendship, despite being good...
aren't quite the level you would want for a top 10 list.
There's still hope for a lot of the films that have been slowly coming out... Hamnet, Secret Agent, No Other Choice and Blue Moon are just a few of them...
There's sort of a structure with the order, but whereas with the movies feels very final, the others could change at any day.
