Oh, I definitely have given up on the keeping up with the film nerd crowd, which is basically what I was saying as to the reason I don't really have much of a top films I've seen this year list. The days of going to 3+ movies a week are long gone, that was back when I was a projectionist (getting free tickets certainly didn't hurt). Nowadays I'm lucky if I see 1-2 movies a month.I would suggest simply watching what interests you the most and not caring about having film-related conversations with others. And being a bit snobbish also helps, i.e. not caring about what other people watch or recommend. I constantly hear people talking about popular new series, especially at work, like The Witcher, House of the Dragon, The Rings of Power, and I just get annoyed and say no, I won't watch them.
But it seems like you actually watch a lot of films if you go to theaters 3+ times a week. I hardly ever go to theaters - almost everything I watch I watch at home. And it almost always makes it a much more comfortable and immersive experience, and less of a chore.
I mostly watch TV series for pleasure. Severance & The Bear being my most recent favorites. And like I said before, usually will try to catch the latest Marvel thing when it comes out.
