#Bloganuary – What is your mission?

Daily writing prompt
What is your mission?

Considering my blogging in 2023 was probably the lowest since Let’s Go To The Movies began way back in 2009 I am seeing my mission for 2024 to get back into it a little bit more. That doesn’t mean I intend to watch as many films as possible again like I did many years ago, but just write different lists or blog posts away from reviews and about different aspects of films.

I feel as though when choosing films as the cinema I have got better at picking films I will most likely enjoy and avoiding those that I don’t. Although we know that we will still stumble across films that we just find extremely bad that’s for sure! That is one thing I have always enjoyed about film blogging, the fact that I might love or hate a film and someone else could be the total opposite but when you read the review of someone who had that opposite opinion you can fully appreciate why they felt that way.

Basically then my mission is to get back on track with more quality on Let’s Go To The Movies.

Top 10 – Films I Caught Up With in 2023

I like putting together a list of films that I eventually watched for the first time in a year, which I had never previously watched. I guess this links into the whole Blindspot area that a lot of people aim for each year, as a way to catch up.

When putting this list together though I have noticed that I actually missed reviewing a couple of the films, which is a slight fail. But at least I can then recognise them in this post!

Top 10 – Best Films of 2023

As it turned out 2023 was a rather good year for film, that including cinema releases and films that might have just gone straight to streaming services, although we have hit a time where the turnaround for some films from cinema to streaming services is not long at all. With some films given an advanced release at the cinema, which I am guessing is for people like me who still prefer to see films on that lovely big screen!

The following films made my longlist but not quite into the final ten, this was obviously quite a tough year to decide on: Wonka, One Life, Leave the World Behind, The Great Escaper, Totally Killer, Guardian’s of the Galaxy Vol.3, Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, Rye Lane and The Super Mario Bros. Movie.

Now check out which ten films did make the top ten in this years Let’s Go To The Movies Best Films list …
