I'm personally trying to stay on top of my movies this year, so I thought it'd be fun to see what your Top 10 of 2017 looks like now that we're halfway through the year. It'd be interesting to compare lists now to ones at the end of the year to see how much the lists change. :thumbs:

So without further ado, here's my Top 10 of 2017 as of July (I keep flip-flopping between #1 and #2):

1) Logan
2) Wonder Woman
3) Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
4) The Bad Batch
5) The Mummy
6) Split
7) Life
8) Beauty and the Beast
9) I Don't Feel At Home in This World Anymore
10) Kong: Skull Island
11) Spider-Man: Homecoming
12) Baby Driver
13) Underworld: Blood Wars
14) Saban's Power Rangers
15) Alien: Covenant
16) The Belko Experiment
17) A Cure for Wellness
18) The Fate of the Furious
19) Ghost in the Shell
20) The LEGO Batman Movie
21) Get Out
22) The Void

Keep in mind that there's still some films currently released that may make it on to my list by the end of the year (looking at you, Okja).

Now, what's yours?! :naughty:
 
Well, I cant do Top 10 because i loved Alien, Ghost and Kong all equally. So i give you...Top 11. Haha. Also, these are not in any particular order, hence no numbering. :)
  • Life
  • Wonder Woman
  • John Wick 2
  • Underworld: Blood Wars
  • Split
  • King Arthur
  • Free Fire
  • Baby Driver
  • Alien: Covenant
  • Ghost in the Shell
  • Kong: Skull Island
  • Gifted
  • Get Out
  • Logan
  • Beauty and the Beast
  • The Book of Henry
  • The Wall
  • Your Name

I've still a lot of catching up to do as I don't get to visit the cinema much, so I can't really be bothered to put these in any proper order at the moment, but here's 10 films (based on UK cinema release dates) that I've really enjoyed so far this year...
  • La La Land
  • Moonlight
  • Split
  • Logan
  • Okja
  • Wonder Woman
  • Patriot's Day
  • A Monster Calls
  • Free Fire
  • The Founder
I'm sure at least half of those will appear in my end of year Top 10 of 2017 list. ;)

I'm sure @bloodsnake007 will have no problem agreeing with your list. :LOL:

I'm ashamed to admit that I still haven't seen JW2, but I did recently buy it, so I'm sure it'll end up on my list once I've watched it (the first one was an action masterpiece, so I know I'll love the sequel).

@tridon You still haven't seen it? :OMG: W.T.F! :mad: :banghead: Get that sexy ass movie in your bluray player and get ready to watch one of the BEST and most EPIC action movies of all time! :cool: :drool: :notworthy:

I don't want to oversell it (i hate when you go into a film with expectations sky high because of hype) -
But I loved the first film - and I feel that the sequel is better, more confident, and magnitudes above the first. The set pieces border on iconic.
I think the ending is a an instant classic. Despite the action extravaganza reputation (well earned btw) - This is just great storytelling.
