Why???

[@videostoryanalyses8910]

You are such an eloquent, intelligent reviewer. Really well done.

[@crableg1384]

This year was a rough year for me especially financially (went to rehab which was a nightmare for my work history) but I did manage to at least see nosferatu in theaters with a buddy of mine on Christmas so a nice way to end the year at least. Thanks for the reviews Cody! (Even when I disagree with you, it’s fun to see how peoples tastes differ).

[@Dreeza68955]

Keep up the good work. It gets easier. How far along are ya? I went this year as well I'll hit my 6 month mark on the 14th.

[@crableg1384]

@ Thank you! Also hell yeah! 6 months ain’t easy, congrats! Six months is huge! I’ll hit 8 months Jan 6th! I hope tonight isn’t too difficult for either of us in our sobriety with it being New Years and all.

Can’t wait for your 2024 all movies ranked video!!

[@ACDC267]

Nosferatu is one of the best films to come out in the last decade. The cinematography, score, visuals, costume design. Everything.

[@heatheraggus7501]

Idea: rank your top movie from each month against one another. It would be interesting to see how many come out in the "awards months". Even top 3 from each month!

[@tannerguthrie32]

So cool to hear that you enjoyed the last video store. Kevin (the video store guy) is a bit of a hometown hero he runs the literal last video store in edmonton. To see him finally get the movie made was a real treat. They even did a good job of recreating the video store in the movie. Though the real thing is allot more impressive.

[@SpencerLSimmons]

Thanks for the last video I watch in 2024, Cody. Happy New Year, friend!

[@jonshieder1518]

Sonic the hedgehog 3 was my absolute favorite movie of December

[@distinguishedflyer]

Pleasantly surprised to see A Real Pain come in so high; it's probably my favorite December watch, though Nosferatu was impressive too. Happy New Year to you Sir.

[@Miniduck9013]

We Live In Time is absolutely the best movie I've watched this year and maybe ever, thank you so much for the recommendation, that movie touched me in ways I didn't know were possible, happy late new year cody

[@supastar25]

Some really detailed reviews here Cody, all without giving much away. I've added a few of these to my list. Happy New Year!

[@hopefulsoul728]

Happy New Year, Cody! You have made a tough year a little more bearable for me and I appreciate it! I wish you and yours a Happy New Year full of good health, peace, love and prosperity. Thank you for for your efforts, I think you’re awesome, take care.

[@billmiltiadis4827]

Crazy that Aaron Taylor Johnson and Bill Skarsgard were in the worst and best movies of 2024! Great video as always!

[@CherylAbbott6486]

As someone who's from the UK, was a teenager in the 90s and a huge Take That fan (The boyband Robbie Williams became famous in, for those who don't know!) I will certainly give the film a watch.

[@Aaron87]

Mad as someone from UK hearing somebody has never heard of Robbie Williams. He's lived in the US longer then the UK

[@Phattypimp83]

As an American who first heard of Robbie Williams in 2005 while i was in Germany.. I can tell you he has never ever ever been popular in America. Atleast not to the point of being a well known name. I happen to like some of his songs..but he’s never made waves in America

[@jimmykarlsson2567]

​@@Phattypimp83and that's strange because he was HUGE in Europe. Imagine if you come to Europe and someone who grew up in the 90s saying " Eminem who ?" That's almost the same reaction we get 😊

[@Phattypimp83]

Right, I get it. I know he had a music video on MTV that would play in America. He did like an MTV cribs as well, but never was the mega star like he was in Europe. It’s very similar to Rammstein with the Germans or Europeans in general. In Europe, they will play stadiums..in America. They kind of blend in more.. They have their fans, but not gigantic

Only saw Sonic and Nosferatu this month. Loved both, but Nosferatu instantly became top 5 of this year

[@corymh9150]

Same.

[@playedout148]

Same. Only problem is that they were so similar I sort of mixed them up. Same thing happened earlier this year with Immaculate and The First Omen.

[@TheUnderDawg6D9]

Ay Cody keep up the fantastic work man appreciate you entertaining us THANK YOU👍🏻

I also enjoyed Nosferatu a lot more on a 2nd watch last night here before the new year. At first it was a 9/10 for me but 2nd viewing it was a 10/10 for me. Masterpiece tbh

[@sammcnaughton5440]

i was under the assumption id be spending NYE alone. thanks man

[@DragonOnCoke7299]

I'm not kidding you. When I went to go see Nosferatu for the second time with my friend there were two parents behind with their 10 year old daughter. We were sitting four or five rows in front of the screen so when the jump scare of orlock popped up on screen it was like 30 ft wide and 10 ft high of his face screaming at the camera. The little girl behind us started crying and saying she wanted to go home And I know this sounds bad but I couldn't help but just laugh because of how absurd the situation is that not just one parents but two would take their little kid to a rated R movie about a vampire.

[@R8RSnCeltics]

If you think that's Kieran Culkin's best performance, and it is really good, you need to watch the show Succession because he's so good in that show.

[@Iam_tejd]

I love Robbie Williams as a singer, cant wait to see better man Happy New Year Everyone btw

[@Trill_Tour]

Just when I thought I had my top five of 2024 wrapped u, A Complete unknown and Nosferatu drop on the same day.

The order 7. We live in time 6. Sonic 3 5. Werewolves 4. A real pain 3. Get away 2. Carry-on 1. Nosferatu

Wait, who does not know who robbie williams is? Even if you're not into 90s pop, he is one of the biggest artists today! His songs are everywhere... sadly to hear that

[@CodyLeachYT]

His songs are certainly not everywhere in the US

[@jimmykarlsson2567]

​@@CodyLeachYTyeah i know and that's really strange in itself to be honest 🤔. I'm born in 1987 he was HUGE were i come from, played on the radio, MTV everyday in the late 90s/early 00s. He was almost as huge as Britney, Aguilera, Ricky Martin and those " golden age " artists 😂 for someone who was teenager back then. Strange that he never had a breakthrough in US when he is one of the biggest selling artist in UK and Europe 🤔. What the hell happened 😳

[@DapprDave]

I saw Nosferatu on IMAX last night. As I was leaving the theater, I overheard someone say that Nosferatu was the "best horror comedy of the year". Anyone else get that vibe?? I f'n loved it!!

[@Film0Graphic]

I watched it in theaters, everyone was laughing during scenes I thought were supposed to be serious. Not sure where the comedy is

[@DapprDave]

@@Film0Graphic exactly!

[@jeffcarlin5866]

Good evening, Cody -- and Happy New Year. You should watch The Road (2009). It's a John Hillcoat film based on a Cormac McCarthy novel. The story is about a father and son in a post-apocalyptic world. It's a survival story -- more drama than science fiction. Perhaps you've seen it and I am preaching to the converted...?

[@JSPokemonYT]

I sadly haven't watched The Last Video Store yet, but I do plan on watching it soon.

[@JahariDansbyDansby]

Cody I love Sonic The Hedgehog 3 I’m one of those people who like it better than slightly more than the first two it’s definitely in my top 10 of the year but I get you enjoy 2 slightly more because of nostalgia, As for Mufasa I don’t know I had no faith I’ll still check it out and review it but by far Sonic 3 I know will be the winner.

[@SonOfAnarchy91]

You'd never heard of Robbie Williams? Thought he was a world widely known artist 😅

Nosferatu was really good, but my go-to adaptation of the story will always be Dracula (1992). The Witch is also still my favorite Robert Eggers film.
