    This is no fun for me as I only go as far back as the late nineties and most of my favourite films were released between 1930 and 1993. I'll give it a go at some point as it will take some thinking over, but I'm thinking of doing a list of my favourite film of each year since the dawn of cinema (it's debatable what that starting part is, but I'm sure we can come to an agreement).

    @MayDayDiVicenzo, I already did such a list from 1931 onwards. I could post that here if you're interested.

    That would be great, thank you. I've already begun mine, it is a lot harder than I expected. What thread did you originally post your list in, out of interest?

    Thanks! I understand my favourites from 1990 onwards can be hit or miss (I realize 2004 got a very controversial pick for instance).

    Nevertheless, glad you enjoyed it overall.

    Good stuff. I really enjoyed BvS and Highlander has always been one of my favourites. Shame the sequels didn't hit the same standard.

    @MayDayDiVicenzo, I already did such a list from 1931 onwards. I could post that here if you're interested.

    I should do that as well, as nearly all my favorite films were made before I was born.

    I find it very difficult to compare films that werde made in different decades or belong to different genres. I also find that American films are very different from European films and I watch both, but for different reasons.

    This was a ton of fun but also quite difficult. I self-imposed a 'no director more than once' rule, just to make it interesting.

    1990 | TO SLEEP WITH ANGER / Charles Burnett
    1991 | THELMA & LOUISE / Ridley Scott
    1992 | BARAKA / Ron Fricke
    1993 | SHORT CUTS / Robert Altman
    1994 | CHUNKGKING EXPRESS / Wong Kar-wai
    1995 | BEFORE SUNRISE / Richard Linklater
    1996 | LOOKING FOR RICHARD / Al Pacino
    1997 | JACKIE BROWN / Quentin Tarantino
    1998 | RINGU / Hideo Nakata
    1999 | BEING JOHN MALKOVICH / Spike Jonze
    2000 | GHOST DOG: WAY OF THE SAMURAI / Jim Jarmusch
    2001 | AI: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE / Steven Spielberg
    2002 | PUNCH DRUNK LOVE / P.T. Anderson
    2003 | OLDBOY / Park Chan-wook
    2004 | ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND / Michel Gondry
    2005 | BRICK / Rian Johnson
    2006 | VOLVER / Pedro Almodóvar
    2007 | THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSIE JAMES BY THE COWARD ROBERT FORD / Andrew Dominik
    2008 | LET THE RIGHT ONE IN / Tomas Alfredson
    2009 | MOON / Duncan Jones
    2010 | BLACK SWAN / Darren Aronofsky
    2011 | DRIVE / Nicolas Winding Refn
    2012 | MOONRISE KINGDOM / Wes Anderson
    2013 | UNDER THE SKIN / Jonathan Glazer
    2014 | NIGHTCRAWLER / Dan Gilroy
    2015 | BROOKLYN / John Crowley
    2016 | THE WITCH / Robert Eggers
    2017 | tbd

    I started to write some comments for each but burnt myself out by 1997. ;) If I feel like finishing them I'll just edit this post.

    As someone else mentioned, some of the years are quite close, and so add to this simply forgetting about this film or that, and the list could easily look vastly different. I'm tempted to do another list of entirely different picks just to see how it would turn out.

    2016: Batman V Superman


    Only 3 Bond movies- I surprised myself!

    2017 is just about over!
    I thought it would be The Last Jedi, but I'm gonna go with Logan. How about everyone else?



    Blade Runner 2049 for me.
    Just seeing it for the first time tonight.

    Sorry Logan, Blade Runner 2049 is my favorite movie of 2017!!

    I want to watch Logan, but I highly doubt it will top BR2049 for me. Right now, this year’s winner for my own list is It, Blade Runner 2049, or The Shape of Water.

    @Birdleson, happy to see some love for The Great Beauty, one of the most beautiful films I've ever seen. You should check out the HBO series (or miniseries, I'm honestly not sure what they intended it to be from the start and what it is now) The Young Pope, also directed by Paolo Sorrentino.

    I've tried to make a good list, but I have to be honest; several of these years didn't leave me with much to choose from. It also occurred to me that I haven't seen any films released in 2017 or 2018 yet – and there aren't that many titles that interest me, to be honest.

    1992: Reservoir Dogs
    1993: The Fugitive
    1994: Pulp Fiction/Clear and Present Danger
    1995: Goldeneye
    1996: Mission Impossible
    1997: Jackie Brown
    1998: Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels
    1999: The World Is Not Enough
    2000: Snatch
    2001: The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
    2002: The Bourne Identity
    2003: Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King
    2004: Bourne Supremacy
    2005: Sin City:
    2006: Casino Royale
    2007: The Bourne Ultimatum
    2008: Quantum of Solace
    2009: The International
    2010: The Other Guys
    2011: Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
    2012: Django Unchained
    2013: Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues
    2014: Inherent Vice
    2015: Mission Impossible 5/ The Man from U.N.C.L.E
    2016: Hail, Caesar!

    With so little left of the year, I think I can say it s between LOVING VINCENT and DER HAUPTMANN for me this year. I would probably give it to DER HAUPTMANN, but as it was originally released last year, it goes to LOVING VINCENT.
