3. Ex Machina
4. The Iron Giant
5. WALL·E
6. Alien
7. Terminator 2: Judgment Day

This is an on going list of movies that have left a lasting impact on me.

• Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind

  Charlie Kaufman + Michel Gondry + Jim Carrey & Kate Winslet = Magic. Also a great soundtrack, other ing actors (David Cross, Mark Ruffalo, Tom Wilkinson, Elijah Woods, Kirsten Dunst), and the amazing Icelandic editor Valdís Óskarsdóttir.

• Lost Highway
• Groundhog Day
• The Black Lapp
• Blue Velvet
• Man with a Movie Camera
• Before Midnight

  I grew up with this trilogy as it was conceived and even if they're 10-15 years ahead of me, everything about these movies has rung true. The culmination of this 18 year journey is nothing short of amazing - but only because you have lived through the two previous movies. Here's to hopefully revisiting Jesse and Celine in 2022!

• Chinatown
• Irreversible
• The Iron Giant

Best movies I have seen from 2016

1. Arrival
2. Zootopia
3. Captain Fantastic
4. Kubo and the Two Strings
5. La La Land
6. Hail, Caesar!
7. 10 Cloverfield Lane
8. Deadpool
9. Pee-wee's Big Holiday
10. Sausage Party

...plus 3 more. View the full list on Letterboxd.

To hear me and Tryggvi discuss these choices, tune into The Conversation - A Film Podcast episode 011.

Best TV Show
Stranger Things

• The Revenant

  Best Trip to the Cinema 2016
  The Revenant was released in 2016 here in Denmark, so this is technically still a 2016 movie for me. This was the last movie I watched in the my favorite cinema in Copenhagen (Empire) before the arrival of my awesome little baby girl, which makes this experience stand out.

  Runner up: Sparrows - "Gloria"

• The Lobster

  Favorite Film Seen in 2016
  Since I did not enjoy Lanthimos' previous movie, Dogtooth, I had low expectations for this one. I thought the premise seemed "out there" and would fall in line with absurd movies that I tend to enjoy. And boy, I was right.
  The Lobster is one of those movies that will stick with me and I will recommend people to watch due to the sheer absurdity of its premise. Added to that, its commentary on today's society, its humor, and its performances makes this my favorite movie watched in 2016.

  Runner Ups: Anomalisa, World of Tomorrow

• Captain Fantastic

  Favorite 2016 Film
  It really shows, that I haven't had time to watch too many movies in 2016, when a good, but flawed movie like this becomes the favorite movie of the year for me.
  However, due to its subject matter, it resonates with me especially this year, because of the birth of my daughter, Røskva. It has triggered a few discussions between me and my girlfriend about parenting (or child rearing), which has been enlightening.

  Runner ups: Zootopia - I was pleasantly surprised by the audacity of this movie, but it has not had as great an influence on my life, as Captain Fantastic had.

• Bad Moms

  Least Favorite Film of 2016 + Worst Trip to the Cinema 2016
  It's by the scriptwriters of The Hangover... it's bad... it's the worst. What were we thinking?!

  Runner Ups: Jack Reacher, Jason Bourne

• Hacksaw Ridge

  Most Overrated Film of the Year
  Receiving an almost 10 minute applause at the Venice Film Festival threw this movie onto the hype train of the year and it got to me. I was surprised of the return of Mel Gibson and was looking forward to get a chance to watch this war movie about a pacifist.
  The hype was just that and the movie, except for the two first extraordinary battle scenes, is average at best.

  Runner Ups: Deadpool

I have gotten more and more attached to Iceland (SO is Icelandic) and these are the movies I have watched so far. I was even involved with "Of Horses and Men" as consultant and trailer editor ;)

• 101 Reykjavik
• Undercurrent
• Angels of the Universe
• Of Horses and Men
• Jar City
• Sunshine
• Mr. Bjarnfreðarson
• Children of Nature
• The Day Shift
• The Night Shift

...plus 3 more. View the full list on Letterboxd.

1. Before Midnight
2. Boyhood
3. Waking Life
4. Before Sunrise
5. Before Sunset
6. Bernie
7. A Scanner Darkly

   Honourable Mention

Movies listed at some of the best of 2015, which have been overlooked by me.

• 45 Years
• Carol
• Love & Mercy
• Brooklyn
• Anomalisa

Most horror movies do not scare me. If there is too much gore, it usually becomes comical. Psychological horror/thriller movies, though... they scare the bejesus out of me!

So without further ado: Here's my ever continuing list of psychological horror/thriller movies in no specific order.

• The Babadook
• Frozen
• The Shining
• The Human Centipede (First Sequence)
• Ex Machina
• Inland Empire
• The Act of Killing
• Jesus Camp

Top 3's from Xan Brooks, Peter Bradshaw and Catherine Shoard of The Guardian Film Show.

• The Great Beauty
• Nebraska
• Before Midnight
• Blue Is the Warmest Color
• The Act of Killing
• I Wish
• Behind the Candelabra
• Gravity

A bunch of movies that I more or less secretly love.

NB! This is not a complete list yet!

• The Rock
• Clueless
• 50 First Dates
• Grease 2
• Cry-Baby
• Titanic
• Resident Evil

The criteria for this list, is that I have watched the movie more than twice and still find it an exceptional movie. (Yet some of them are from my childhood, and might not hold up as well today)

• The Celebration
• The Kingdom
• Hannibal and Jerry
• The One and Only
• Nightwatch
• Otto Is a Rhino
• The Olsen Gang Sees Red
• The Fight For The Red Cow
• Dancer in the Dark
