    Am I wrong in thinking that Nathan For You is a huge omission from all of these lists?

    That A.V. Club list is very, very good but I have to agree, the total lack of Nathan almost invalidates it.

    Also, I adore The Good Place with all my heart but Twin Peaks was the best forkin thing on television this year, bar none.

    It's not just the AV list. I've yet to see a list with NFY on it.

    The Nathan finale is the best piece of television I've seen in years. The rest of the season (even without the finale) was still miles above any other comedy on TV.

    In terms of a pure head-to-head comedy matchup, I'd have to probably give it to The Good Place. But NFY is definitely in the top 10 shows of the year, if not the top 5.

    No but you're right! I don't know how I could've been so absent-minded to just forget it like that when I was just talking about it. It's been a long day.

    I always use Film Comment's list as a way to catch up on a year, but they are really out there calling Good Time the best film of the year. Phantom Thread needs to rescue what has been such a mediocre year.

    Unless I see some truly repugnant stuff I am going to have to put one of my favorite filmmakers on my Top Five Worst Films of 2017. There are still a few days left, though. My top ten is getting stronger, as there have been so many good small films available that were released in the United States this year.

    Music, Gaming, Movies and Guys = Life

    Yet to see a few big films from this year (Paddington 2, The Last Jedi etc.) but this is my Top 20 films of the year and overall it has been a brilliant year while all but one of the films listed being seen at the cinema.

    1. War for the Planet of the Apes
    2. Blade Runner 2049
    3. Logan
    4. mother!
    5. John Wick: Chapter 2
    6. Get Out
    7. Thor: Ragnarok
    8. Baby Driver
    9. It
    10. Atomic Blonde
    11. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets
    12. Only the Brave
    13. Logan Lucky
    14. The Ritual
    15. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
    16. The Fate of the Furious
    17. Spider-Man: Homecoming
    18. Wonder Woman
    19. The Lego Batman Movie
    20. Murder on the Orient Express

    I'm sure there are worse films than these five but not being someone who needs to watch every film released in any given year I am more likely to avoid such films, so these are my Top 5 Worst Films of the Year.

    1. Fist Fight
    2. The Bye Bye Man
    3. xXx: Return of Xander Cage
    4. The Boss Baby
    5. Power Rangers
