Once again, I'm here using my birthday as the cutoff for the annual list of movies I saw in the past year. As garbage as 2016 felt to most of us, there were plenty of cinematic distractions to get us through it. This rundown includes all the 2016 releases that I saw, both in the theater and at home. I beat last year's total of 62 by 8 for a total of 70. Looking at the list, I'll attribute that to a weird run in the late fall where I went back and watched a bunch of terrible movies that I had skipped in the theater. So while I'm proud of myself that I killed last year's number, the quality of the movies that contributed to that number, as you can see, is definitely wanting. What did I miss? What am I ranking too high or too low? Let me have it.
