Okay. I'm a movie fan. Yes, I am. That's what I do to cool my head down after a long day...
This year, as far as the box office and TV shows are concerned, it has been great. Really great.
The list below has been being updated thought-out the year, so don't be dumbfounded on how sketchy (but long) it is. You may check out what I watched last year (2014) by clicking here.
Also, here is a list of the Best of 2015 in Movies from IMDb that you may be interested in. (By the way, some of their movies happen to make it on my list.) (^Δ^)
Anyway, without much talk, here's what I watched in the year 2015;
