It was wayyyyy too convoluted and wayyyyy too long! The leads were nice and the two “ghosts” were also enjoyable! I just got extremely bored near the end tbh
Several from your list I am extremely hyped for. Here’s mine: 1. Hundreds of Beavers 2. Love Lies Bleeding 3. Challengers 4. Layla 5. The Beast 6. Ghostlight 7. Dune: Part 2 8. Civil War 9. Didi 10. Late Night with the Devil 11. In the Summers 12. Sasquatch Sunset 13. Sometimes I Think About Dying 14. Handling the Undead 15. Thelma
For me it’s definitely Dune Part 2. Saw it for the first time while being on vacation in Iceland in the only cinema of the second largest city of the country on the day it was released. Only got half of it since a lot was in a fictional language and the subtitles were in Icelandic. But i still managed to get a lot of it due to the impeccable directing. Then i watched it 6 times at home, 4 of these in the nearest IMAX cinema (which is 3,5h away xD) Such a great movie and overall experience, especially on the largest cinema screen on earth :D
Challengers is also my favorite of the year so far. Have you watched Hundreds of Beavers? It’s a great 2024 release (at least it was digitally released this year).
Bird, Challengers, Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point, Dune Part Two, Furiosa, I Saw The TV Glow, Kind of Kindness, Monkey Man, Spermworld, The Substance.. not bad 👌🏼
They literally have it second in the list calm down and watch more movies. I wonder how dramatic your reaction would be if they said they hated the movie if this is what you do for it being second on a top five list.
I usually hate quick cut editing but the way that you do it strategically in the midst of nice long analysis is so fuckin funny, great list!! 2024 feels like a really quality year for cinemum. Idk if you counted The Beast in this year or or last year but that movie blew me away when I finally saw the other day
I always admire a best of list with movies I am unfamiliar with. Of course, being a cinefile I already anticipate Andrea Arnold's Bird and The Substance, but thanks so much for shouting out Christmas Eve, which I had not heard of and discovered it's directed by Tyler Teorama who blew me away with his awesome debut Ham on Rye. Altman indeed!!!
That Monkey Man poster is fuckin sick! I liked Monkey Man. It is a shame it didn’t get more attention aside from some tweets I saw but it was an interesting amalgamation of mythology and the modern action movie. Not perfect, but certainly unique.
Only have a top 8 in alphabetical order so far. Challengers, Dune pt 2, Furiosa, Hundreds of Beavers, I Saw the TV Glow, Love Lies Bleeding, Sometimes I Think About Dying and Snack Shack
Maybe Femme doesn't count because it was released in the UK in 2023 but I didn't see it until March 2024 and it's my favorite of the year, or maybe second behind challengers. But I can't stop thinking about Femme
my best movie of the year is Bertand Bonello's THE BEAST which barely anyone seems to have seen or be talking about, it got a poor theatrical release run. karsten, idk if you look at these comments, but i know that ur a massive David Lynch fan and you would love this movie! i hope more people are able to check it out
I know I’m soooo uncultured but I’ve only seen Mean Girls, The Fall Guy and Inside Out 2 so far. I would rank them in that order, with Inside Out 2 being by far the best. The other two were fun too, though.
My Faves so Far Inside Out 2 Challengers Dune Part 2 I Saw the TV Glow Spermworld y2k It's Whats Inside Lisa Frankenstein Furiosa Problemista Civil War
At this point in the year, the best movies I've seen are usually prestige movies from the previous year, that got released later in my country. In this case: Killers of the Flower Moon, Anatomy of a Fall and Past Lives. Though I really should've seen Dune: Part Two and Challengers by now, those seem great! Here in The Netherlands, Dune 2 has now started to leave theatres, but luckily a cinema in the Hague is doing a Dune special in July: Dune 2 in digital and in 70mm, a double bill of the two movies, the version by Lynch, Jodorowksy's Dune. So I'll be catching Dune 2 next week, I'm really looking forward to it! I rewatched the first one in preparation and I liked it way more this time around (first time I watched it, some of the story details flew over my head)
well yeah, but have you heard that bird, bird, the bird is the word, the bird, bird, bird is the word, the word is bird, bird, bird, the bird is the word, the now, bird, bird, b,b,b, bird, the bird is the word, now, the bird, bird, bird, bird is the word (yeah, i can go all day long)
I’m super behind on movies this year.. I’ll just send my full ranking so far 1-Dune Part Two 2-Abigail 3-Mean Girls 4-Inside Out 2 5-Monkey Man 6-Godzilla X Kong The New Empire 7-Hit Man 8-The Fall Guy 9-Kung Fu Panda 4 10-Bob Marley One Love 11-Orion and the Dark 12-South Park The End of Obesity 13-The Casagrandes Movie 14-The Thundermans Return 15-Madame Web 16-Irish Web

Disgusting snub we have to support artists
Hes putting that on the best movies of the century so far video
12:39
It's the worst movie of 2024 so far 😊
Don’t speak too soon. Oppenheimer 2: Atomic Boogaloo still otw
I thought Dr Strangelove was Oppenheimer 2
This was delayed till 2026 , sorry to disappoint you
bro where the FUCK is Despicable Me 4.
My favorite so far is Challengers. My favorite part was when Patrick does the thing, the thing with the ball. You know the one
That was such a crazy moment for me-
“Oh, haha, that’s a funny callback… OH HOLY SHIT-“
For people who've only seen trailers of the film you're scaring them
@@PayArcanum good
My audible reaction along with everyone else in the theater was crazy
Spoilers , thanks
Saw a preview screening of Kinds of Kindness last night and had Dev Patel sitting behind me, very cool.
Bro hasn’t seen megamind 2 😔
Argylle SNUBBED. This will not be forgiven.
Unironically better than Dune 2
It was wayyyyy too convoluted and wayyyyy too long! The leads were nice and the two “ghosts” were also enjoyable! I just got extremely bored near the end tbh

THE OLD MAN IS SNORING OUTSIDE
For me it’s definitely Dune Part 2. Saw it for the first time while being on vacation in Iceland in the only cinema of the second largest city of the country on the day it was released. Only got half of it since a lot was in a fictional language and the subtitles were in Icelandic. But i still managed to get a lot of it due to the impeccable directing.

8:02 interesting directorial choice to whisper into my right ear there Kursten
Still waiting to hear your thoughts on Hundreds of Beavers…
It’s in my top 4 favorite movies
Is it considered a 2024 film?
Yeah it was only in festivals prior to this year. Pretty rare 2 year gap between premier and release wide release.
He reviewed it on his what I watched this month he gave it a 9 I think
7:40 Could you make that a video? "Top most exciting directors to keep an eye on right now"?
Cooper Raiff
Challengers is also my favorite of the year so far. Have you watched Hundreds of Beavers? It’s a great 2024 release (at least it was digitally released this year).
Hundreds of Beavers would be my personal #1 followed closely behind Dune Pt. 2 & Challengers
Best video game movie of all time
Bird, Challengers, Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point, Dune Part Two, Furiosa, I Saw The TV Glow, Kind of Kindness, Monkey Man, Spermworld, The Substance..
not bad 👌🏼
I laugh every time karsten calls a movie “sexy” lol it’s like an Easter egg
why do you say its an easter egg?
My top 5 so far are:
1. I Saw the TV Glow
2. Dune: Part 2
3. Furiosa
4. Challengers
5. Civil War
Oh stop it, no movie was better than Dune this year
@@PayArcanum I’ve seen 5 movies better than Dune Part 2 this year. I’m sure more will come out
@@yt.byliam No you haven't I know you think you do but you haven't
Are you aware of how opinions work?
They literally have it second in the list calm down and watch more movies. I wonder how dramatic your reaction would be if they said they hated the movie if this is what you do for it being second on a top five list.
i'm so happy you mentioned monkey man because i loved that movie and i wish people talked about it more!!! dev made an incredible job
I really thought my headphones were broken when you were talking about Kinds of kindness hahaah
Hundreds of Beavers is my favorite so far, really special movie but not for everyone.
I usually hate quick cut editing but the way that you do it strategically in the midst of nice long analysis is so fuckin funny, great list!! 2024 feels like a really quality year for cinemum. Idk if you counted The Beast in this year or or last year but that movie blew me away when I finally saw the other day
late night with the devil is the best horror movie of the year it needs MORE recognition
You gotta watch “Hundreds of Beavers.” Top of my list for sure.
perfect timing as always
My top movies (so far, in no particular order): Dune Two, Late Night with the Devil, The Fall Guy, Challengers, Hit Man, The Bikeriders
I always admire a best of list with movies I am unfamiliar with. Of course, being a cinefile I already anticipate Andrea Arnold's Bird and The Substance, but thanks so much for shouting out Christmas Eve, which I had not heard of and discovered it's directed by Tyler Teorama who blew me away with his awesome debut Ham on Rye. Altman indeed!!!
Evil Does Not Exist was my favorite of the year, surprised it hasn't been mentioned in a best list from Karsten as I think he enjoyed it to
The Coffee Table!!!
not kursten channeling his inner joe pesci 'lemme know goddamnit'
That Monkey Man poster is fuckin sick!
I liked Monkey Man. It is a shame it didn’t get more attention aside from some tweets I saw but it was an interesting amalgamation of mythology and the modern action movie. Not perfect, but certainly unique.
I’d also say it’s been a good year for horror so far In a Violent Nature, Late Night with the Devil, and Abigail were some of my favs
Only have a top 8 in alphabetical order so far. Challengers, Dune pt 2, Furiosa, Hundreds of Beavers, I Saw the TV Glow, Love Lies Bleeding, Sometimes I Think About Dying and Snack Shack
Substance September 27th, same day as Megalopolis!! Wild double feature inbound
Highly recommend American Honey by Andrea Arnold - really unique, wonderful movie.
Kursten, have you watched Robot Dreams and what do you think of it ?
in the middle of the kinds of kindness review, i got an ad for it 😭
Wow was actually binge watching ur videos today waiting on a upload like this
You NEED to watch Fish Tank if you want to get more into Andrea Arnold
Karsten, please, you need to see Hundreds of Beavers-
Wait where are you staying? Nobody says that about rain in June unless they live in Seattle
You forgot Hundreds of Beavers, the best movie of 2024.
I watched The Beast a couple nights ago. Definitely apart of my favorites for 2024 so far.
Maybe Femme doesn't count because it was released in the UK in 2023 but I didn't see it until March 2024 and it's my favorite of the year, or maybe second behind challengers. But I can't stop thinking about Femme
good job carson
Can’t wait to see how this list will change when WICKED drops
I've been watching videos on this channel for months now without realizing it wasn't your main channel lmao
Dune 2 just feels like a titanic achievement. One of the greatest cinematic experiences ever
Civil War still slept on
watching this video post Joker 2. oh boy
I SAW THE TV GLOW MENTIONED 😼
Great video man! Gotta check out Kinds of kindness soon.
robot dreams is a favorite of mine
my best movie of the year is Bertand Bonello's THE BEAST which barely anyone seems to have seen or be talking about, it got a poor theatrical release run. karsten, idk if you look at these comments, but i know that ur a massive David Lynch fan and you would love this movie! i hope more people are able to check it out
