This was such a stellar year for movies that narrowing down our annual list of the 50 best proved extraordinarily more difficult than in years past. There were superhero movies in top form (Wonder Woman, Thor: Ragnarok), highly anticipated sequels that exceeded expectations (Blade Runner 2049, Star Wars: The Last Jedi), and, as it currently stands, several films so beloved that they have a reasonable shot at winning Best Picture at next year’s Academy Awards ceremony (including The Post, Get Out, Lady Bird, Dunkirk, Call Me by Your Name, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri).
