CS's Top Ten Movies of 2021

I did this in 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007, 2006 , 2005, 2004, and for both the 2000s decade and the 2010s decade. It's worked out fairly well.

It's very simple. You post your top ten movies list of 2021 then I will splice them all together into one definitive list of the top ten of 2021. The lists should be ranked, no ties.

Traditionally I did this the week before the Oscars but every year I get people who don't come to the boards every day who miss the whole voting period so now I'm setting it up three weeks before the due date to help turnout.  


You have until 2:00 P.M. CST on 3-26-2021


Just to clarify:

Qualification only requires that the movie be released in 2021 in America.  Please note that unlike the Oscars we stuck to the 2020 calander year as our qualification metric last year, so early 2020 movies like Cherry, The Dig, French Exit, I Care A Lot, Judas and the Black Messiah, The Little Things, Malcolm and Marie, The Mauritanian, Music, Saint Maud, Supernova, Two of Us, Quo Vadis Aida, The United States Vs. Billie Holiday, and The White Tiger ARE eligible this year.

Nomadland, Minari, and The Father WILL NOT be elligible, as they had some release in 2020 and were eligible for our poll.

When in doubt about eligibility of a given film, just ask me and I'll make a ruling

You're welcome to edit your list after posting, but please give me a heads-up when you do and keep you original post intact so I know what has changed.

Oh, and try to list them in ascending order from one to ten, and not the reverse.

Anyway, I really want the highest turnout possible for this, don't hesitate to vote, even if you don't think you've seen as many movies as you would have liked, just vote. This forum has 108 registered members if even a quarter of them vote in this we'll still have numbers that rival the old board. I will be promoting the hell out of this and will not hesitate to start tagging people if the turnout isn't great.
