 Hey, what's going on everyone? I want to thank you so much for tuning in to another episode of just my opinion reviews I really do appreciate it and just like I did last year at the end of 2017 I am doing the exact same thing this year end of 2018 with my best worst and favorite list of 2018 This one right here that you're watching you saw the thumbnail you saw the title This is actually actually I don't even know what my title my thumbnail is going to be So this is it going to be like the top 15 Favorite movies of mine of 2018 you may be sending yourself a brand and why are you doing your top 15? You should do your top 10. Well, you're going to get my top 10 because it's going to be here You're just going to get an extra five as well because there were so many films that I did enjoy this year now I did say best favorite and worst now This is my top favorite films that is different from top best films. What do you mean? This is what I mean my fate top my favorite is my biased opinion It is it is a more subjective approach now all films are subjective meaning that just because I like something You may not and vice versa, you know, and that's perfectly fine So there may be some films on my list that you may not agree with that you disagree with and that's perfectly fine There are also a number of films that I did not see this year So I can't talk about them or put them on my list if I haven't seen them So I have my list of 10 to 15 right here very excited to talk about it And I just want to also just stress this so you understand There is a difference between best and first best is a more objective approach my best list of films that I Feel that should be best picture Contenders because the story was great and it also just had great acting again my subjective opinion It's just going to be films that are just my own biased opinion. I don't care about plot I don't care about story and things like that. I just had a ton of fun with it That's what it means on the surface But for me personally I do care about plot and I do care about Story and acting and the fix and all that I'm not just gonna be putting on here a bunch of guilty pleasures No, these films on my favorite list are at the very least an 8.5 out of 10 and higher But these are just list of films that I can just they're my favorite I can watch over and over and over again if there is a plot point or anything like that That just doesn't make sense. I really don't care. I just have fun with it You know, so it is it is a it is an objective approach as well But the subjectivity comes before anything else So I know for all that rambling let's go ahead and get to my number 15 favorite film of 2018 and that is also a surprise for me and that is instant family It came out November 16th. It is a comma Consec comma a comedy drama. It was a written and directed by mr. Sean Anders I'm a decent fan of his I don't know too much. He did a sex drive daddy's homes two and one That's my boy. This film right here is loosely based on a true story that had to deal with him the director Sean Anders and It stars Mark Wahlberg and Rose Byrne and what it's about is just a couple found themselves You know not they haven't had any kids and they want to adopt foster kids and this is not just a comedy There had a lot of heart to it It was a lot of realness to it. It was a lot of things that I just thought of I did not expect He has some pretty good performances, too. It's a favorite of mine. I don't know I mean I may buy it or something like that, but it is something that I can watch Over and over again coming in at number 14 is a film that I think a lot of people just forgot about it came out January of this year January 12th, and that is Paddington, too I love this bear so much is this a cute cuddly bear on the surface. It looks like okay I would not be interested in this film at all. This looks childish. No, I mean they have childish jokes But at the same time they do have a lot of adult themes as well. I think the effects with the bear Paddington is phenomenal. It really looks like a real bear on screen photo realistic CGI The writing director is Paul King and it's just a it's just a great film You know just about a bear trying to live his life in England and you know be loved by family I recommend it. I love the first Paddington and I love Paddington too. All right guys coming in at number 13 Is a film that I just recently reviewed and that is if Bilstry could talk written and directed by a brother Barry Jenkins, I love this film right here. Also, let me go ahead and say this guys There may be also films that are on my top favorite list of 2018 that are also on my best list of 2018 So I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of that but coming in at number 13 is if Bilstry could talk I said in my review and you can go check it out. This film right here is a textbook example of black love It's a type of love story that I have never seen before While simultaneously being infused With weight racism and white supremacy and things that you know took place in the 70s I love this film. I thought the soundtrack was fire I will be buying this film when it comes out on Blu-ray 4k and all that good stuff I love the love of the couple. I love the love of the family I just love the whole film and I strongly strongly Strongly recommended and think you all think all you guys to take a chance and go check it out And that is number 13 if Bilstry could talk now coming in at number 12 Is a film that I don't think anybody is gonna have on their list But I put it on mine because I had a lot of fun with it and everybody crapped on they sent it It was a bloody joke and it was stupid and it was this and it was that and it was just comical But I had a great time and that is Shane Black's predator movie that came out this year I think I gave this film like a 9 or 9.5. I don't understand why I mean it is a silly movie It is a goofy movie, but at the same time, I feel that they did take it seriously as well I thoroughly enjoyed it. I really I haven't seen predator 2 and a lot of people saying I need to go see that I don't know why I just said that it didn't have really thing to do with this movie But the predator film was a lot of fun. I mean, it was a great action film I like the story of it. Like I said, it has some goofy and silly elements But that's okay because I'm a goofy and silly guy and I just had fun with it So predator that is coming in at number 12 All right coming in at number 11 on my top favorite list of 2018 is a film About a toddler of a quiet place. I love this film. I remember when the trailers first came out I was like man, this looks stupid. I don't think I'm gonna be interested how in the world Are you gonna have a Suspense for movie when no one can talk. Well, I was wrong and I'm glad I was wrong because this film was amazing The director is John Kretzinski The another actress in this film is Emily Blunt who plays They are married and it's just a great film a lot of people talk about how they want them to to be Mr. And Mrs. Fantastic and the Fantastic Four. I would love that But this is a supposed apocalyptic world where a family is forced just to live in silence or they will be tough eaten by monsters and It's just them just trying to survive and all the weird Contraptions and the vices they have to come up with so they can make it through each day It's very clever. It's very thought-out very provoking. It's a super mystery thriller. I loved it This is something that you really want to see in the theaters If you can I remember you can hear a pin drop when I was in the movie theater No one wanted to talk and that's just a type of audience engagement that I love to be a part of This is a fun film. It's something that I can watch over and over and over again I loved it. I didn't buy it yet, but I will be buying it You know, I I do have a budget like everybody else. I can't just buy everything, you know I'm saying if it's come a book movie, you know, I probably can't but I really did enjoy this movie I think you will too. So that is why a Quality place comes in at number 11. All right now guys We are now in the top 10 see I told you don't get my top team This is my top 10 favorite films of 2018. I remember this snuck up on me I didn't even know about it. It was a I think it was I think it was on my subscriber Cheryl I think if it were if it were from mom, please forgive me But I think it was you Cheryl that recommended to this film Or you told me to react to this in like another video I was like, okay, what is upgrade and then I saw the chair and I was like, oh snap This is all the goddamn chain. You know, I'm saying I love me some martial arts action hand-to-hand combat You know, especially when you're up close. I love that and this film upgrade Had all of that it's written directed by label now They carry my earlier this year June 1st of 2018 and when they have all these martial arts elements and things like that They mix it in was like future cybernetic technology Artificial intelligence AI and all that good stuff and it was phenomenal the ending was almost disappointing to me But I liked it. They had a nice sense of heart and touch Towards the end especially like with the mother of the main Protagonist in this film. It was nice. I don't even think it was that long. It was like yeah I were 40 minutes. It was just great hand-to-hand action great direction by the director And Logan Marsha Green who called people call him the broke Tom Hardy. He's a great actor to me I liked him in the I like no, I didn't like that movie, but I liked him in The alien covenant movie, but it's just a great film I loved it great story kind of something that I've never seen before and I will be buying this too When I get some more money All right guys coming in at number nine is a headbanger man when I saw this in a theater I was jamming this group is fantastic and I don't even know much about them, but that is Bohemia and Ramsey Now there was a lot of controversy with this film because you know people hold it's based on Queen the band Queen that was doing her thing in like the night the 1980s They had one of the best performances live concert performances of all time at live eight in 1985 And one of the countries in Africa. I can't remember exactly I said controversy because Brian Singer was Directedness, but then you know he had it was reported that He was sick. Well, not he was sick, but family member was sick So he wasn't showing up to sit so he was fired or whatever I don't know and somebody else came in But it's loosely based on a true story of Queen the controversy also comes because a lot of people say it's not 100% true But besides how that I enjoyed it Remy Malik Played of Freddie Mercury and I think the performance is great one of the better performances of this year He really did give all he could to that role in his show on screen. I was jamming my head in theater I loved all the music. I was a big fan We are the champions in the 90s when I was growing up and that song was introduced to me, too You know in the mighty ducks franchise. I love that franchise. It still holds a special place in my heart So especially when they played that song and this thing I was just like we Y'all I know I could say now I'm just I am just joking but not this film was a lot of fun It was a great story great acting great storytelling great performances. I really didn't enjoy this I remember my mom's just like yeah, I'm not gonna see that. I was like no mom you need to see this movie. It's fantastic I loved it. So that is why Bohemia in the Rhapsody is coming in at Number nine. All right guys coming in at number eight and Yeah, none of the look at it. Oh, I put no sir. I do want to switch this order Coming in at number eight Is a film that I mean I was gonna say these films just keep getting better and better, but that's not necessarily true But it's still a great film and that is mission impossible Fallout right where we get right? Excuse me. There we go right there got that film right there on a Blu-ray 4k actually got this for a Christmas gift So you can possibly tell when I'm shooting this right here, but I have mission impossible fallout right here It was the written and directed. No, it wasn't written, but it was directed by Christopher McCurry He's also the gentleman that directed the last mission of possible film and But mission impossible one two three four five I mean they just keep getting better and better and better and then you know mission impossible five and six kind of Kind of plateau for me, but I still enjoy the hell out of them this out of them This film right here was actually shot with IMAX cameras So when you're watching it some of the action scenes When they have when you're watching at home and they have the black bars at the bottom of the top of the screen When the IMAX scenes come those disappear and the screen expands and it is it is really a nice experience at home And while you watch it in the theater, but these films right here. I mean they're just crazy fun I mean the IMF and my impossible mission force like seriously the missions that they have to accomplish is just freaking Impossible you just like how in the world are you gonna do this? But Tom Cruise and his team being rames and everybody they always come through and save the day and save the world And this is why they're entertaining. It is a fun ride I really don't want them to stop making these films because they're just great and they make money and they're good So I mean I love these films and that is why mission impossible fallout comes in at number eight alright guys Coming in at number seven on my top favorite films of 2018 it was a film written directed by mr. Steven Spielberg one of the greatest filmmakers of all time and that is a ready player one Man, if this was filmed in IMAX, this probably would have been one of the best movies I've seen forever But oh my goodness gracious guys the pop culture references in this film was this freaking stellar phenomenon I mean like this is a true dream come true for any geek of Anything in the past 30 to 50 years I mean they threw every Easter egg imaginable in this film and not only that it just looks beautiful the Offincer to score with the music was good in this but the effects in this thing were just like top-notch I mean they really got every digital artist They possibly could on the planet and put them together to make a beautiful film the story was great I love the characters everything this was just a fun movie something that I can wash over and over and over again And especially at the end when he did that how do I can y'all know what I'm talking about if you're a friend of their franchise But this is a great film. I loved it and I think he will too Ready player one blu-ray 4k right there, baby number seven top top 10 Favorite of 2018 Alright, we are moving Quite along now Coming in at number six. I do not have this film Ready to show you because it is still in theaters right now and that is spider-man into the spider-verse it was directed by a pop hero Shady Peter Ramsey and Rodney Rothman and It's a great film guys. We have Mars Morales. Of course, I can relate to this a young brother He's black and Hispanic of course I can't relate to the Hispanic side But I can relate to the black horse sign and just the way he was just singing in the trailer I don't know the words and he didn't even in the movie You know like we all do that sometime You know I'm saying and just without them just like black black black black black black which is nothing wrong with that Anyway, I was really able to relate to him and you can just see like just little nods Easter eggs of this random Mannerism throughout the whole film that I can just relate to besides that I'm a big fan of spider-man Okay, so we got spider-man and this to a perspective we've never seen before and multiple spider-man's I mean how can you lose with that? You really just can't the effects that Sony put out her right now that they're trying to actually patent that technology And it was a great technology I can't get mad at them for that those effects and things like that is something I've never seen before the way the film Broke the fourth wall and like, you know at one point I'm never throw something hit them in the head and like the captions that were like pop out like This is a food or a donut or something just randomly when they talked of the Decommon book bubbles will pop out. I mean it was just something I've never seen before. I love this film I cannot wait so I can buy this on blu-ray 4k I know it's gonna look beautiful on my display when I get it at home But you know, it was just a great film. I loved it and that is spider-man into the spider-verse coming in at Number six. Okay guys, well now we are in the last five the top my top five favorite films of 2018 and Coming in at number five is a film that I was actually late to the party Everybody got to see this before I did but that's okay because I was actually able to pay to see this film I was able actually to contribute to the box office and give them my dollars But let me pull this up real quick. I should have had it ready But you know hey sometime I just be freestyling just I want to give you all the info I possibly can but this film right here coming in at number five is Written is directed by mr. George Tillman, Jr. Believe it or not. It's a black guy and he directed soulful men of honor and notorious. I loved all those film I'm saying that I did not know if it was named Prior to this. I mean I should have been paying more attention But like I said, that is the hate you give I have I don't own it because I don't I think it may be still at The dollar theater right now and came out on blu-ray. I ain't bought it Oh my gosh this film right here was super duper serious a mandala Steinberg she fantastic actor actress Excuse me as the main protagonist of this film of course this deals with racism and white supremacy I love this film to death. It spoke to me on so many different ways because With the good and the bad it was so realistic to me because I mean I love everybody for the most part You know I'm saying, you know even in my community Of course But even in my community you have some people that I still just cannot stand and of course I cannot stand the races and that this film dealt with both sides You know I'm saying I mean even though people that you love just do things that you just cannot stand and I don't I know I'm being extremely vague. Go check out my review for this film I don't I don't want to review this film right here, but this was Given the climate that we're living in right now the political climate this this film right here just speaks volumes it is a true eye-opener and Just I like how they compressed all of these themes and elements of like racism white supremacy and Justice and all that into one film one two-hour film to really paint the picture of Black people's plight and people of colors plight and things that they have to go through There was a ton of African-American DOS in this film just descendants of slaves Except for the necessarily the main actress and I talked about that more my my review, but I love to see him I support it Regina Hall did a great job Anthony Mackie Russell Hornsby did a great job Common I mean this film had a fantastic cast and everybody did a phenomenal job It is doing horrible at the box office right now It's only made 32 million dollars worldwide with a 23 million dollar budget So guys without even doing the math is blatantly obvious that this film lost money and that frustrates me So please support the film now if you can You know, I want George Tim and to get work and he's not gonna get work if his films are losing money But let's try to keep it positive, you know, even though I didn't myself But that's why this film right here. The hate you give is coming in at number five Please go check out my review for this film Coming in at number four and my top 10 most favorite films of 2018 We got it right here and that is Incredibles 2 right here Blu-ray 4k, baby Man, it was 15 years that we had to wait on the sequel and it was a I'm glad that we finally got it It was well worth the wait, please don't make us wait that long for an Incredibles part 3 But I don't mean I don't understand why so someone the first one made money and it was a critical I mean, I understand why that, you know Brad Bird the director he wanted to do other things But I think I like the Incredibles 2 even more than the first film and I love that film I mean, it was it was fantastic. I mean the this this is for kids. This is for adults This is for everybody. I really don't understand how anyone cannot like this film I mean all films are subjective. I'm just saying and I'm pretty sure everybody's not gonna be in love with it But I did only thing that I did I like more in the first film was the villain But everything else in this film I think surpassed the first one with the effects the action the comedy just the the relationship between the family and the way They got along. I love how they bicker and argue in the family. It's just a great film I really did enjoy that and that is why the Incredibles 2 is coming in at number four on my top ten favorite of 2018 All right guys, so we are down to the final three final three films of 2018 and I bet some of y'all like Brandon or why haven't you listed this film? Yeah, I'm getting there I'm getting a so much fun. All right guys coming in at number three I don't have it on blu-ray 4k right now because it is still in theaters But I love the first film and I love this sec the sequel even more and it is Creed 2 baby. Yes, Creed 2 Starring mr. Michael B. Jordan. Mr. Eric Killmonger. Mr. Mr. Creed I said mr. Creed. I love this film, you know, we got Sylvester Stallone coming back as Rocky, of course This is was not directed by Brian Brian Ryan Coogler This is being directed by steeple Steven Caple Jr. And he did a fantastic job Like I said, I think I like Creed 2 better than the first one and I love Creed 1 But the training months Hodges in this thing like when at the end when he was in the desert super fire the Ivan Drago Not Ivan Drago his Ivan Drago is doff lung ring. What was his son's name? I forgot I got it. What was it? Where is it at? Where is it at? I got a Victor Drago played by Florine Florian Monteney Monteney if I'm pronouncing that wrong, I'm I'm pretty sure I am but it was freaking fantastic. You got Russell Horne's being this thing as well I really did feel I mean and the fight in the middle I didn't know how I mean some of this stuff was predictable, but some of it wasn't I really did not know how I was going to end I like everything with Tessa Thompson and her relationship And you know with the baby and things like that. I like the argument between Michael B. Jordan Sylvester Stallone I like Felicia Versailles, you know, but mama chicken her son. I love so much in this film right here Please go check it out. I definitely will be bonus. I mean the action in this You know Michael B. Jordan like seriously guys like I have been inspired just to like train my ass I'll from seeing this movie.

But like seriously like real talk But creep to I love this film my review for it is up on the channel. Please go take please go check it out It is a phenomenal film. All right guys We're down to the final two films of 2018 that are my favorite and coming in at number two Is blacks clansman, baby. I got it right there on blu-ray. I know I just didn't feel like buying us on full k I didn't see the the need to but man hold up this film right here is written and directed by By spike lee. It's a spike lee joint. Uh producer of this was also Jordan peel who did get out and is doing us right now I believe Jordan peel. He just I don't think he just wasn't associated an executive producer I think he was like a producer producer to where he had a lot of creative control and decision making power I'm so glad that he cast John David Washington in this film. Um, Denzel watched his son I love this film right here. The part where they were talking about double consciousness spoke to me The speech at the very beginning uh, were corrie hawkham Was I forgot the gentleman he was playing. I really I I forgot my I'm so sorry guys Uh, but the those floating heads that really spoke to me everything in this film spoke to me I love this film. I got it right here. I can I don't know why says about three times already at home after I watched this thing Only thing that well the movie is great. The special features on this disc suck I mean, it really are any there's no commentary, which is disappointing But it's still a great film guys. This is it comes in at number two for my top Number two favorite film of 2018 All right guys, we are down to what the final word my favorite film of 2018 Um, some of you guys probably already know what it is. Um, it may Create some controversy some division. I don't really care I'm a little exaggerating when I say that right there But to be honest with the guys, uh, I couldn't make a decision on number one. So there's a tie Okay, I still cannot decide. I'm looking at them both right now. I still cannot decide Which film I like more. I mean Gosh It's just too difficult for me. I've tried. I've been back and forth. I still to this day. I cannot determine which one I like more Um It's just too hard. So, uh, it is a tie Come so coming in and just two films. I'm gonna listen if you don't like me tying them. Hey get over it but uh, the first one is, uh Marvel's The Avengers Infinity War, I don't know. I'm holding it right here now and I forgot the title of the film That is number one. Uh, well part one of this and coming in, uh, and number one again the tie Of course, it's Black Panther, baby And I got it right there on blu-ray 4k and I also have an on, uh, 3d Um, if you have a 3d television, they don't sell this in the states You have to order a lot overseas But if you have a 3d television, I'll strongly suggest you buy this in 3d because They had the i max ratio for this film is on this on the 3d disc And you don't have to watch it in 3d. You can still watch it in 2d if you have a 3d film to see the i max ratio If you don't have a 3d tv and you still want to watch the i max ratio Um, it won't work on your tv But there is a way that you can convert the file convert the disc and put it on a blank blu-ray to watch it I've done it myself and it's freaking amazing But we got Black Panther and we got Avengers infinity war right here Uh, two of my favorite films of all of 2018. Of course Black Panther. I mean come on It's a comp these are comic book films. I mean, uh, I mean blacky blacky black are over this culture or over this I can relate to it kill monger is my I don't even want to call kill monger villain. I really don't I'll just call him the antagonist. Okay, because I really don't even feel the film was villainizing him They really get they gave him a valid reason to be upset I just did not necessarily agree with his handling of the situation Only things I didn't agree with killer monger was killing children And going on the offensive. There's only everything else, bro I'm with you right there. You know I'm saying black liberation. Oh, this is bullcrap. I I feel you my brother. I like seriously, you know, I feel you I feel you bro I really do. I'm gonna go and bust on tears right now Um, but yeah, you know, I don't agree with killing children. I don't agree with uh going on the offensive I'm a strong advocate of self-defense Uh, I mean the costumes in the film were just like top notch the song the soundtrack, you know the acting the performances Was stellar, you know, I I could nitpick the film, but we're not going to do that right now And then when you get to Avengers infinity war Thanos, I mean one of the baddest villains Uh, yeah, he is he wants to murder the whole universe Uh, but the performance was great. The effects was great. Uh, I mean, I love everything about it I remember geeking in the movie theater when I saw this in iMacs Doing some of the action scenes all throughout this like, oh my god You know going like that. I mean, these are my favorite films of this year I can watch both these over and over and over again This is like this this nearly met all of my expectations and so did Avengers infinity war It was such a build-up to those films right there and it was just phenomenal. I love them all But um, yeah guys, that is my uh, that's my list for 2018.
