Well now we're getting somewhere. We're well more than halfway through our 2018 Pantys at this point -- you can see everything here. Way back last Friday I shared with you 10 movies that juuuust missed out on my Top 20 films...
Goddamn those are good! Well now to the deeper meat of it. The really really hard choices. In another year, a lesser year, any of these movies seriously would've been Top 10 material. But 2018 was just too too kind to us -- with the world so shitty outside the art-house our artists really stepped up to soothe and challenge and sate our cinematic needs, bless them forever amen. So here's the middle part of my favorite 30 then. As a bonus I've added to each an "Indelible Moment" from the movie, whether it be an image of line or scene, whatever sticks out in my brain when I think of the film.
