    So? That has never been the criteria that people use to determine film year. Film year is when it is released domestically.

    But the French film released domestically in France in 2024

    Yes, which is why French critics named it the best film of 2024. Their number two film of 2024 was May December, which came out in the United States in 2023.

    I dunno, if a foreign film from 1990 gets released in the US for the first time next week, it's not a 2025 film

    There is always a debate about that. When Killer of Sheep finally got a proper release, a lot of people called it one of the best films of 2007 even though it was filmed in 1978.

    We aren't talking about that dramatic of a time jump, though. It doesn't make much sense to call a film that didn't come out in America in 2024 a 2024 film. It is usually reserved for foreign films, but there are some English-language examples. You could call The Life of Chuck a 2024 movie if you wanted to because of festivals, but everyone recognizes it as a 2025 film and it will appear on best or worst of 2025 lists. Since someone brought up that awful awards show, both The Hurt Locker and Crash would be in the "wrong" year if we used a different criteria.

    Stop this nonsense. For 8 billion people it's a 2025 release for the other 100 who were at the film festival they can put in on their 2024 if they want to flex

    Bring Her Back is my favourite of the year. Nosferatu is up there, and Eddington, like all Ari Aster films, only gets better the more I think about it so that's creeping up.

    As far as upcoming films to be excited about, I am more intrigued by what Avatar 3 is going to do than I was the previous two. There is also a Reichardt to come.

    2 different safdie movies and that stand up movie that Bradley cooper is directing as well. Avatar 3 will be great though.
