  • From my calculations (assuming 1st place = 10 points, 2nd = 9, and so on) shouldn’t 12 Years a Slave be higher than Gone Girl and Wolf of Wall St? And shouldn’t Whiplash be above Only Lovers Left Alive? I was interested in what else made up the top 20 hence why I calculated

  • 2014 was a versatile and valuable year. I love two films from that year: Boyhood and Interstellar. Boyhood deserves top rankings in every aspect. However, it could be a close call for “Interstellar” if “The Martian” was released a year before.
