The Movie: Ryan Gosling's nameless driver gets embroiled in romance (with Carey Mulligan) and headstomping violence (with everyone else). Nicolas Winding Refn's ice-cool 80s-styled retro-noir seduced Cannes (where Refn won Best Director) and became the year's cult classic when it arrived on our shores in September.
Impact: Hitherto staunchly heterosexual men going gay for Gosling, who basically became king of cinema this year. A rush on satin jackets and toothpicks. And expect Cliff Martinez's soundtrack to appear on every TV show for the next few years.
There's a new Mummy movie on the way from the director of Evil Dead Rise and I just want to know if Blumhouse has called Brendan Fraser yet
Marvel Rivals made Jeff the Land Shark so stinkin' adorable that the MCU is bringing him on as an official hero: "We're all Jeff fans around here. Man is he fun to play"
