Yeah, there have only been a few great films, a handful of good films and some mediocre or bad ones.  Out of the films I have watched, 27 of them I rated a 6/10 or less.[/quote]

[quote=Mr Minio]Quite a few did/will come from India, though. Indian cinema has been slowly but steadily trumping Hollywood for the last 20 years. Malayalam cinema in particular had quite a boom in the past 10 or so years and yet I don't see anybody talking about it here. When it comes to action/adventure/arthouse Indian cinema left Hollywood so far in the back that it's embarrassing.[/quote]

[quote=Allaby]I've seen 48 films from 2024.[/quote]

[quote=Mr Minio]I've only seen three films from 2024 but [i]Malaikottai Vaaliban[/i] was very good and definitely better than both the disappointing [i]Challengers[/i] and okayish [i]Soundtrack to a Coup d'Etat[/i]. [i]Cu Li Never Cries[/i] might top it once it gets a wide release, though.[/quote]

[quote=Allaby][quote=Mr Minio]Doubt it.[/quote]

What do you think is the best film of this year so far?[/quote]

[quote=Mr Minio]Doubt it.[/quote]

[quote=Allaby]Just saw Inside Out 2.  Best film of the year.[/quote]

But you love all of us, right?[/quote]
