Sorry to be that person, but don't you mean Zootopia?

I loved it too! The mini Godfather parody, the sloths - too cute.

i didn't watch very many in 2016.
Although, my favourite would have to be "Don't Breathe". I saw it in a completely empty theatre & that made it scarier.
Either way, it kept me on the edge of my seat.

Haha i watched Zootropolis today actually it was a nice movie 👍🏾

But my 2016 favourites were The Girl on the Train and Now you see me 2

I recommend watching Ethel & Ernest, i watched it today and I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. It was beautifully animated, cute and moving. It is about Raymond briggs parents, hehe.

Haha yeah i can imagine it was more exciting then. I watched it in theaters myself and it was good but not as good as what i expected it to be. It kinda became boring with too much silence but hey i am an airy person i need words haha.

I liked "Arrival".

We've seen more movies than usual, this year. Fantastic Beasts was okay - amusing. Star Wars wasn't bad.

Aah, I wish I'd seen Star Wars & Girl on the Train..
Didn't watch many this year, what with all the moving around.
I'll catch 'em on DVD perhaps!

Most favourite films:

"Trolls" and "Sing".

"Deadpool" - definitely one of my favourites.

The anime movie "In This Corner of The World".

Two Korean movies: "A man and A woman", and "The World of Us".

Other than those...


Sausage Party was a riot. Crude, but it had some great moments.

Love and Friendship and Fantastic Beasts n Where to find them were good.

Spirit's Homecoming costed me so many tears.

I generally stick to movies that have some sorta of inspiration and are based on a true story.

I know it was limited release, but I would say a Street Cat Named Bob.

Basically a stray Cat made an otherwise ignored homeless drug addict his owner.... then he made him into a local celebrity
by being the homeless guy that had a Cat on his shoulder.

People started to notice him and he eventually got clean and is off the street.

I'm sure everyone has Kodi and is streaming movies for free.

I only go see kids' movies in the theater, with my kids. Last grown-up film I saw in a theater was Titanic.

Arrival was pretty good. I feel like the ending was a let down though. It was piecing everything together but felt rushed and cheesy, although it was a great story line. I want to see Fantastic Beasts. Stars Wars was pretty good, I agree.

-The Witch was intense, and a bit confusing at times, but interesting.
-Gods of Egypt was kind of bad, but it was visually stunning.
-I liked Zootopia, and I don't usually like kid movies.
-10 Cloverfield Lane had a good twist, but I'd probably never watch it again.
-Captain America was, as usual, amazing.
-Hillary's America was interesting but not as good as Clinton Cash, a must watch imo.
-The Legend Of Tarzan was embarrassingly horrible. The digital effects were so so bad, what a let down.
-Sausage Party was not that funny, and actually kind of try hard. I really wanted to like it, I adore Seth Rogen, but it just didn't work..
