Here it is! My annual ranking of all the new releases from the previous year! As usual this list is comprised of films that were released in the UK in 2021, so there are some films that were released in other countries in early years. Also, as usual, I didn’t see every film I would have liked to, so here’s a list of films that would have been eligible but that I haven’t seen yet, and that I’m going to try and watch as soon as possible: Nobody, Coda, The Matrix Resurrections, House of Gucci, Minari, The French Dispatch, Pig, No Sudden Move, The Tragedy of Macbeth, Shiva Baby, West Side Story, The Green Knight, Petite Maman, Another Round, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Eternals. Of these, I’m most annoyed I didn’t see Ghostbusters: Afterlife and The French Dispatch in the cinema, they just came out during a particularly busy period for me and I had to choose between them, Last Night in Soho and Dune. I have no excuse for why I haven’t seen Coda, Minari, No Sudden Move, Another Round or The Green Knight, as they are all available for me to stream right goddamn now in my own goddamn home, but I still haven’t done so yet. Anyway, enough of the films I didn’t see, here’s my list of the films that I did:
44 Muppets Haunted Mansion
35 Willy’s Wonderland
26 Judas and the Black Messiah
22 Werewolves Within
20 Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings
17 Zack Snyder’s Justice League
9 Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar
1 The Mitchells vs the Machines
And that’s my list! Is there anything missing you’d recommend?

Love it! Excellent list
Thanks!
We really disagree on Nomadland.
We really agree on Promising Young Woman.
I think Nomadland is maybe in my bottom 5 best picture winners (although I still haven’t seen a lot). I really didn’t gel with it. Promising Young Woman, on the other hand, was incredible.
