Top Ten Most Anticipated Movies of 2016

Now I said that yesterday was a tough choice; well, this is the fourth year I've made one of these lists, and I've got to say, this has been the toughest one to write yet.  There is actually a tonne of really interesting looking stuff in the pipeline at the moment, but, I'm happy with what I've gone with in the end.  Wasting no time, here are the honourable mentions…

Top Ten Movies of 2015

Got to admit; this has been a tough call to make, I've done a lot of hmmming and haaaing over this one, since it's been a vintage year in a lot of respects, with a lot of fantastic stuff coming out.  It's also not been helped that there are quite a few really big things coming out fairly late in the year to consider as well.  What's interesting is that this year has seen a bundle of classic franchises coming out of mothballs to really fantastic commercial and critical success, and you'll see examples of that below.  In fact, that's just with movies; we've had awesome new Danger Mouse, Clangers and Thunderbirds on TV this year too.  I'm a tiny person again!  But as for movies, as I said, tough choice, so let's start with a lot of honourable mentions...

Top Ten Looking Forward to in 2015 - How did they do?

It's that time of year again!  Now yes, I usually do these lists on the run up to Christmas rather than New Years, but well, one fairly significant release came out recently, and I wanted the chance to see that before setting the main top ten in stone, so we're pushed back to today.  For those that haven't seen this blog before (the many, many of you), each year I do top ten movies of the year, and top ten movies I'm looking forward to next year.  So for the first of the traditional troika, I'm looking at last year's "looked forward" to list, and seeing how they turned out.
