Year in Tiers 2022 - Joey Chestnut
The final group in our 2022 Year in Tiers recap finds the absolute best of the best, industry standards we'll hold up for future generations to be measured against for years to come. These are the icons. The legends. Like 15 time Hot Dog Eating Champion and the renowned World Record holder for downing 76 hot dogs in 12 minutes - these are the indomitable, Joey Chestnuts of film. #6. Terrifier 2 Yet another instance of a sequel magnifying everything great about it's predecesso

The Top 20 Batman Movie Villains of All Time
With Matt Reeve's The Batman introducing us to his take on some familiar faces in the Batman Universe, we thought we'd see where they stack up against the Best Batman Movie Villains of All Time: #20. Colin Farrell as The Penguin (The Batman) Colin Farrell's a phenomenal actor. But I couldn't help but think, "why not just cast a fat ugly guy in this role instead of caking a hunk in prosthetics?" This is America, surely there's no shortage of overweight ugly people out there, r

Year in Tiers 2021 - Kelly Rowland
Listen, I mean no disrespect to Kelly Rowland. She's an incredibly talented and beautiful young woman. She even made me giggle a few times in the critically adored Freddy v.s. Jason. But next to Beyonce, we ALL pale in comparison. This tier is dedicated to her and all the runners up out there not quite dynamic enough to flourish on the grandest stage. #33. Those Who Wish Me Dead Taylor Sheridan's latest throwback, neo-western thriller finds Angelina Jolie protecting a young b

2020: The Year in Tiers - The Middle
The middle tier of our yearly recap finds the middle of the road, serviceable yet flavorless efforts that are good enough but not all that remarkable. Like a tall glass of tap water. It'll clench your thirst but it's hardly anyone's first drink of choice. #46. Color Out of Space Yet another glowing love letter to the b-horror 1980's, Color Out of Space does very little to differentiate itself from the ever growing sub-genre of nostalgia horror. But aside from the synth heavy

The Best (and Worst) Films of 2019: The Best
Top tier consists of the best of the best, undisputed heavyweight champions of the world. I usually try to keep it to 10 but this year had so many great movies I felt bad leaving 11 & 12 out. So here is the measuring stick all 2019 movies have to be measured against, the Beatles. #12. 1917 There are plenty of war films out there, but none of them look and feel like 1917 does. It's an absolute cinematic marvel, a visual spectacle the likes of which are best experienced on the

The Best (and Worst) Films of 2019: The Runners Up
The fourth tier consists of great movies that are just a step behind the best. The consummate silver medalists, the runners up, the Karl Malones. #27. The Kid Vincent D'Onofrio delivers one hell of a western with his directorial debut, there's really just one major thing holding it back - Chris Pratt. The rest of the cast, highlighted by standout performances from Ethan Hawke and Dane DeHaan, is absolutely remarkable. But I've seen very little proof that Chris Pratt can play

It took me a minute to sift through my thoughts on this one but I'll try and toss in my two cents without it sounding like more of what...
