DISCLAIMER: The following is subject to change as my opinions continue to evolve.
So last year I listed my Top 5 Films Per Year from 1977-2022, and figured that now it made sense to try to expand each list from a Top 5 to a Top 10 (yes, I know I am crazy). This time around I was only able to make it as far back as 1996 because, believe it or not, even I haven’t seen every movie ever. Speaking of which, I will admit that some of these films are only on here by default because I didn’t get a chance to see any more than ten in certain years anyways…
As I like to say, here we go again:
