I'm really finding it difficult to care about seeing Manchester by the Sea. I consider The Lobster a 2015 film.

20th Century Women
Gold
I, Daniel Blake
Live by Night
Moonlight
Neruda
Paterson
Patriots Day

If I had to select just one: Gold. I am still excited for it despite the mediocre reviews. The director's previous film, Syriana, is one of my all-time favorites.

Moonlight is the one. Hope it reexpands. I had plans to see it in theaters twice, but one day the weather was shit and the other I was too disgusted by a certain crustacean movie to deal with another potentially obnoxious independent film.

Would like to see Passengers in theater too. That spaceship has probably sailed though.

Also in netflix queue:
Storks
Blair Witch
Miss Perigine
The Accountant
The Girl on the Train
Hacksaw Jim Duggan Ridge
Klown Forever
The Purge 3 (though I need to see Purge 2 first)
Fences (just for Denzel)

Uh, I still haven't seen Silence (and I need to, it just seems so daunting) and Live By Night.

Older releases that were big or got some critical attention that I didn't see:

The Secret Life of Pets
Kung Fu Panda 3
The Accountant
The Magnificent Seven
Central Intelligence
War Dogs
Blair Witch
Eye In The Sky
The Handmaiden


I plan on watching Accountant and Blair Witch soon though.

Nah, still two weeks till it's getting released here. :mad:

But on the positive side, I'm planning on doing a double feature tomorrow with Nocturnal and The Great Wall.

I have done a terrible job watching documentaries this year. I believe I only saw one: the Oasis documentary by the Amy team. The ones which received lots of attention (as far as documentaries go) [The Eagle Huntress, Tickled, Wiener, O. J.: Made in America, etc.] slipped by me. I may try to catch up with a few, though the O. J. one seriously disinterests me. It is, what?, eight or nine hours long, and I feel enormous burnout regarding anything O. J. Simpson related.

Awesome. Hope you appreciate The Great Wall.
