When I moved to Seattle in 2008, I began keeping track of all the movies I managed to see that came out that year. I track whether I watched them in the theater (and how many times) or on the small screen (in italics). I also indicate which ones I’ve purchased [Blu-ray].
Below are the movies that debuted in 2017 and at the bottom of this post, you can find links to my rankings from 2008-2016.
