What is your favorite year for movies this decade?
2017 is amazing so far, but I'll have to wait for the other movies that still have to come out this year. It's definitely a contender for best year of the decade. Right now 2014 is clearly my favorite year of the decade and also one of my favorite years for movies ever. A few examples of great movies from 2014 are:
Birdman Boyhood Captain America: The Winter Soldier Dawn of the Planet of the Apes Edge of Tomorrow Guardians of the Galaxy How to Train Your Dragon 2 Interstellar Kingsman: The Secret Service Snowpiercer The Grand Budapest Hotel Whiplash
And I still have to see these movies from 2014:
A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night Birdman Gone Girl The Babadook The Imitation Game The Lego Movie The Raid 2 Under the Skin X-Men: Days of Future Past

Most of mine are either non-English language, other foreign, documentaries, or small independents. The Better Angels / A.J. Edwards Boyhood / Richard Linklater Citizenfour / Laura Poitras The Clouds Of Sils Maria / Olivier Assayas En duva satt på en gren och funderade på tillvaron (A Pigeon Sat on a Branch Reflecting on Existence) / Roy Andersson Life Itself / Steve James Listen Up Philip / Alex Ross Perry Nightcrawler / Dan Gilroy Omoide no Mânî (When Marnie Was There) / Hiromasa Yonebayashi 99 Homes / Ramin Bahrani Phoenix / Christian Petzold Predestination / Michael and Peter Spierig Relatos Salvajes (Wild Tales) / Damián Szifrón The Rover / David Michôd The Salvation / Kristian Levring Whiplash / Damien Chazelle

Or the second decade of the 21st century and 3rd millennium, 2011-2020?

2014 wins quantity, but the movies from 2010 that are great, are really great.
The Social Network Toy Story 3 Inception Black Swan Scott Pilgrim vs The World I Saw The Devil Exit Through the Gift Shop

2014 is in the lead at the moment, but I've seen very little from 2016 thus far and nothing at all from 2017.

probably 2011. Mainly because the best of the best for that year is damn strong (Drive , The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, Take Shelter & The Tree of Life) Also, stuff like Rango , Rise of the Apes & Captain America were all a lot of fun .
2017 is definitely making a strong case for being a great year though. We haven't even entered the Oscar season yet and already I've given out a lot of 8/10 or higher so far.

Wesley Crusherthanks for the info and all but i noticed a pattern there with you from that post above... like you seem to rank overall years based solely on volume of 7/10's and higher you gave out and while i somewhat factored that into my own post i looked at other factors to better determine what's a better year for me because if i based stuff on volume of 7/10's or higher i gave out that would make this 2010's decade look better than it is in comparison to say the 1990's for me. but i place the 1990's higher than the 2010's decade overall because while 2010's look good on paper a sizable portion of those are just 7/10's where as the 1990's have more 8's and higher. so i am just curious... did you factor that stuff into your choices or did you mainly just base it on volume of 7/10's and higher without looking into the details much? with that said in above sentence... i realize it could be possible for your choices to be your choices even factoring in what i said as it could have just played out that way but it seems more likely that your going mainly by volume of 7's and that's about it. also, how i did mine there is really no exact math formula or anything as it's just something you can tell in your head given volume of each rating and looking at the movies in some text files i got side by side factoring on volume of 10's/9's/8's etc. but i guess even by this standard it could still be possible for 2013 to be your #1 because it's at minimum 10+ movies more than the next closest year which will give it more weight there as i suspect for something to top that you would have to be more loaded up on the higher scores in another year with 2013 being a bit weak in the higher scores for that other year to overcome 2013 overall. but if you don't mind... i would not mind taking a look at your movies there in each year just to see how i would personally rank each year for you if it would be the same as how you got it. but i would do this not based on my personal opinion of those said movies but based strictly on how you scored them and then gauge accordingly. but even by this standard... while it would be fairly accurate(maybe even real accurate depending on certain factors), it might be hard to judge if things end up being too close since i am not in your mind to nit pick over the finer details of which i can't know how you would judge it. but... that finer detail stuff might not even be a issue though if things are more clear cut i could probably easily tell straight up on how those years rank for you. but i would not know this until i seen your list in each year ranked the best you could along with the scores for those movies in each year.

It's difficult for me to tell, but I seem to have a crapload of highly-rated 2016 films, including:
The 5th Wave 10 Cloverfield Lane The Angry Birds Movie The Brothers Grimsby Central Intelligence Criminal Deadpool The Do-Over Finding Dory The Founder I Am Wrath Ice Age: Collision Course The Jungle Book London Has Fallen Masterminds Moana The Nice Guys Pee-Wee's Big Holiday Ride Along 2 Rogue One The Secret Life of Pets Skiptrace Special Correspondents Trolls True Memoirs of an International Assassin Zoolander 2 Zootopia
I have a lot from every year, though . . . so it's hard to tell

Wesley Crusherthanks for that info. but all i wanted was your 7/10's and higher in each year of the current decade (i.e. 2010-2016 (you can include 2017 if you want but i assume your not finished with it)) separated into a per year basis and ranked/rated (see example below). then i could see if i would rank them the same as you did based solely on your own ratings, which is basically the same system i used on myself in my initial post in here. like for example... 2016... 1.Movie Name Here - 8/10 2.Movie Name Here - 7.5-8/10 3.Movie Name Here 4.Movie Name Here - 7-7.5/10 5.Movie Name Here - 7/10 -.Movie Name Here etc 2015... (do same as above) then do the same for the rest of the years in the current decade. NOTE: i don't know if you use the in-between ratings like i do (i.e. 7/10, 7-7.5/10, 7.5-8/10, 8/10, 8-8.5/10 etc) but that might help me a bit if you did. but if not, that's fine as i don't want to burn up too much of your time. but just looking at the info you did give me... it might not even be a bad idea to use 8's or higher to limit things a bit since it appears you hand out plenty of 7/10's in general and it seems your more higher-up level movies are 8/10's and higher etc. i don't hand out many 7's and higher as that comes out to 197 movies out of the 2,125+ total movies i have seen which is why i use the 7/10 or higher standard as movies i consider my favorites as while i still like movies i score in the 6/10 range, and will re-watch em here and there, they tend not to stand out from the pack like my 7's and higher do etc. but come to think of it given that info you posted... i probably would not even need to use movies you rated a 7/10. but... it might be required if i can't make a call on your 8's and higher. so for now you can just list your 8/10's and higher in each of those years and if i need the 7/10's, to make a decision, ill ask you for em. but if you only counted 8's and higher, what would your movie counts be in those years above in your initial post?

Wesley CrusherThanks for that info. but do you have any of the stuff (like years ranked/rated etc) on a per year basis like i was saying in my examples in my previous post? that is what i need in order to properly rank your years, which will be based on your own scores for each movie etc, to see if how you ranked them (as based on what i know you seemed to have ranked based on volume of 7/10's and higher and the lower that total count the lower ranked the year) would be the same as the way i would rank em. i have a feeling it won't be. but like i was saying... whatever i came up with would pretty much be the same way in how i ranked mine in my initial post which i have a feeling would be different from how you selected your years as it 'appears' it's based solely on volume of 7's and higher in how you selected your years where as mine is not based solely on that as it factors in other things which i feel is more accurate in terms of judging overall year. so basically do you have info on a per year basis in your movies of the current decade (i.e. 2010-2016 (you can include 2017 if you want)) along with the ratings for those movies. like for example... 2010... 1.Movie Name Here - 8/10 2.Movie Name Here - 7.5-8/10 3.Movie Name Here 4.Movie Name Here - 7-7.5/10 5.Movie Name Here - 7/10 -.Movie Name Here etc 2011... (do same as above) ...and so on up to 2016 (you can include 2017 if you want but i figure since your likely not done with it, it might be better off leaving it out for now). THAT is the info i need from you so i can properly rank the years in the current decade based on your own opinions of whatever movies you have ranked/rated in those given years. until i get this info from you i won't be able to see how you prefer things based on the system i used for myself in my initial post. thanks for your time
