I had a hefty list of 42 films I had to narrow down to this little list here before you and I cried as I watched some favorites get the boot.
Real tears. Real manly whimpering tears.
Like all the previous years, I realize a few of the films are produced the previous year before but they didn't get a proper nationwide release until 2015, so I included them on this list.
Here's my Top 10 Favorite Films of 2015:
