Wow, out of your list of 51, I saw 4 in the theater.

My four movie list would be:

Guardian's 2
Thor Ragnarok
Spiderman Homecoming
Last Jedi
 
Movies I didn't see in 2017 that I wanted to
Baby Driver
IT
Dunkirk
CoCo
Three Billboards
The Shape of Water
The Big Sick
The Post

That is a good list of movies to see. I found Dunkirk to be surprisingly boring, but overall still worth seeing. I'd also consider adding The Greatest Showman to this list.

The Greatest Showman is one of those movies that I know I will like if I were to sit down and watch it, but constantly think "do I really want to watch this right now" whenever I am on the fence haha. I'm sure I'll see it sometime in the future though, and reallly enjoy it.

Keep in mind that while my list is big, most of those I did not see in the theater. Truthfully, I watch a lot of movies, but the large majority are just ones where I reserve the blu-rays free online for pick-up at my local library. Pretty easy and doesn't cost a dime.

Wow. I had to go through a list of 2017 movies because I just couldn't remember what I had seen this year. Less than I thought. Obviously I don't go to the theater much without the kids and the wife and I have been enjoying more Netflix series than full movies lately.

1. Star Wars TLJ - Theater
2. IT - Theater
3. Wonder - Theater
4. Spider-Man: Homecoming
5. John Wick 2
6. Get Out
7. Lego Batman - Theater
8. Despicable Me 3 - Theater
9. Captain Underpants - Theater

Still want to see:

Logan
GotG2
Wonder Woman
Justice League
Blade Runner 2049
