Since we're doing all these at the moment. So it's best films you've seen that were originally released in the UK in 2014.
Do a top 5, in order preferably, and some sort of result will emerge in early February.
There seems to be a lot more quality than last year. Here are some suggestions, which I'll add to as we go along:
12 Years a Slave
The Wolf of Wall Street
Inside Llewyn Davis
Dallas Buyers Club
Her
The LEGO Movie
Nymphomaniac
The Grand Budapest Hotel
Under the Skin
The Double
Calvary
Locke
X-Men: Days of Future Past
Edge of Tomorrow
Mrs Brown's Boys D'Movie
Boyhood
Joe
Guardians of the Galaxy
The Rover
A Most Wanted Man
Gone Girl
Fury
The Babadook
Mr Turner
Nightcrawler
Interstellar
The Homesman
The Hobbit: The Battles of the Five Armies
Paddington
The Imitation Game
Enemy
The Guest
Starred Up
The Raid 2
Miss Violence
Snowpiercer -
Can I give The Wolf of Wall Street negative points, I really don't want it to win? -
I've only seen a handful of films that were on UK release this year. Do DVD releases count? Miyazaki's last film was released in UK in 2014.
Watching Her today, but films I'll include are 12 Years a Slave, Dallas Buyers Club, Wolf of Wall Street.
Interstellar and Hobbit were shit.I am a FREE. I am not MAN. A NUMBER. -
The Lego movie.
WoW
GOTG

Stop being difficult. Just list your top 5, and then I'll work out a points system that means the ones I like win.adored wrote:Can I give The Wolf of Wall Street negative points, I really don't want it to win? -
Wolf of Wall Street
Grand Budapest
Guardians of the Galaxy
Dallas Buyers Club
22 Jump Street
12 years wins most over rated.

Guardians of the galaxy, but I haven't seen nightcawler yet and I suspect that would pip it. -

Still not seen Wolf of Wall Street or Interstellar. -

Massive shout out to The Guest though. -
The Raid 2 was hugely disappointingI like to think I'm a CAN DO kind of guy...

I found it immensely satisfying, I wasn't after a repeat of the first, and he delivered a sprawling, beautifully shot and impeccably choreographed action film.
-
I think I was after a repeat in my head so I think the last 20 minutes are fantastic and worth the ticket price alone. Everything before that is a snorefest. -
Maybe watch again with fresh eyes. Never great seeing a film with loaded expectations.

Raid 2 is Alien, Raid is Aliens, although neither Raid is on a par with them Alien(s).
-
Been slow getting round to stuff this year (watching X-Men at the moment though, just popped out for a smoke).
My list looks something like:
1. Calvary
2. Under the Skin
3. Starred Up
4. Babadook
5. Wolf of Wall Street
6. Dallas Buyer's Club
7. Gone Girl
8. Inside Llewyn Davis
Biggest disappointment was Noah. Was that this year? Was up for it, even bought it on BluRay, hated it.
Howdy, Stranger!
