Infinity War came out last year. I think you mean Endgame.

Both are better than Captain Marvel.

[viper37]

duh!
yes, I meant Endgame. 

[Camerus]

My best films list:

2010: King's Speech. I'm a sucker for Cinderella stories.

2011: Moneyball. A pretty good guy flick. Underdog launches ambitious plan using brains, innovation and a keen eye for talent.

2012: Argo. Best flick from a weak year.

2013: Blue Jasmine. In the lowest circle of Dante's hell sits the devil, frozen, with his mind turned in entirely on his own situation. The main character in this film similarly lives in her own solipsistic hell.

2014: Whiplash. Interesting meditation on the line between being a demanding coach trying to push your students to new heights and being a psychopathic bully. Took on new relevance for Leafs fans following the firing of Babcock this year. 

2015: Another weak year. Big Short gets the nod for its innovative and fun take on an important but otherwise dry and technical topic.

2016: Arrival. A bit of a dark horse for sure, but one that overawed me in the theater with the intensity of its music and cinematography and the unpredictably of its plot.

2017: Death of Stalin. "I've had nightmares that make more sense than this." A top-shelf black comedy of how both everyday people and Stalin's inner circle navigated the bizarre and terrifying world of Soviet make-believe in the days before and after Uncle Joe's death.

2018: A Quiet Place. How one family maintains the will to survive in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by beasts of prey. One reason I won't forget seeing this is that much of the time there is total silence on screen and so the loudest sound in the the theatre was me crunching on my popcorn. 

2019: Withholding judgment as there are still a number of 2019 films I'd like to see but haven't yet.

I haven't seen Knives Out yet. Current favorite for the year is Midsommar.

it was pretty entertaining. The daniel craig accent was a bit weird though (as in: can't he speak normal)

[Sheilbh]

My understanding is it was deliberate. A bit like Poirot's accent rather than trying for normal/natural.

[Admiral Yi]

Mudbound.  Race relations in post WWII Mississippi.  One hour of plot shoehorned into a 2 hour movie.

[Josephus]

Cam. Cam girl gets her account hacked. Not horrible, some good parts.

Did you get to see these good parts?

[The Brain]

There's some boobs.

[Caliga]

I'm confused. Wasn't this a series where Radcliffe is an angel and buschmi god?
