Our top tier is a little smaller than normal and this is exactly why we don't stick to a top 10 list. Some years, there just really aren't 10 great films released. Last year we extended it to 12. But 2020 wreaked havoc on Hollywood, shuffling releases all over the calendar and limiting the vast majority of their output to at home releases. Which meant very little tent pole blockbusters and a scattered roll out of award contenders that felt very much like studios were holding

The 2nd tier in our Year in Tiers recap consists of the runners up. Quality films that just don't quite get the same shine the marquee stars do. Sidekicks. Like good ol' Scottie Pippen.

And since 2020 had us all locked inside with very little to do, it's more than likely we found ourselves lowering our standards for some cheap entertainment. Which is probably why this is 2020's largest tier. We were all like a kid staying home sick from school, channel surfing day time television for the least worst options. And nothing says least worst daytime television like Maury. #74. Bloodshot I'm ho

It's a couple of months later than usual so that we could include all of the 2020 Oscar eligible films released, but here we are with the first installment of our Year in Tiers recap of the Best and Worst films 2020 had to offer. As always, I'll preface this with the note that obviously there are some dogshit terrible films out there that didn't make this list but these are the worst films we actually took the time to finish and intrigued us enough to seek them out in the fir
