Landon Defever and I discuss the movies we enjoyed most from 2021! Including: our least favorite films, Best Picture nominees, our top 20 films of 2021 and more!I've seen around 100 movies that came out in 2021, only films I was interested in (as I don't have time or the money to see everything). These are MY favorite films of 2021 (and Landon's). We don't have to agree, but I encourage thoughtful discussion. These films all received their theatrical release in the United States in 2021. They may have received different releases elsewhere. Hopefully you check out something you haven't seen before!
