Recap Of My 2021 In Movie Watching

Below are all the movies I have seen (thus far) that were released in the year 2021.

They are in alphabetical order.

Just other end of calendar year facts I found interesting for myself. These come from my Letterboxd all-time stats, and I am curious to see how they shift of the next year.

*I watched 213 movies this year and that does not include rewatches from the first half of 2021*

Most Watched Directors

*Let’s gooo!!!!! David Fincher is finally in my top 10! Ronald Emmerich and Quentin Tarantino are also at 10 movies each.*

Highest Rated Directors

*All hale Taylor Swift haha. I am not biased at all.*

Most Watched Stars

*I did not watch a single movie with Morgan Freeman this year?? Dwayne Johnson has entered the list following his debacle of “Red Notice” and the tolerable “Jungle Cruise.”*

Highest Rated Stars

It turns out that I watched something with John Morris this year and it took down his rating from a 4.8 to a 4.4. I have no idea what he was in. This is one of those lists that is skewed because of the few movies attached to each star.

Letterboxd List Completion

*Added in a healthy percentage to AFI 100 Years 100 Movies list and Oscar Best Picture Winners.*

Rating By Release Year

*Just kind of cool to see how this fluctuates but is also similar.*

Most Viewed Crew & Studios

*Yes, I do love Stephen King. Little sad that Sylvester Stallone on there as number two.* *Turns out I am a big Andy Nelson fan, would have none*.
