In case you missed it: 12 Must-See 2024 Movies.

Just so we're all clear: Stranger Things season 5 would totally be on this list, but given it just started production, it seems highly unlikely it will air in 2024. No biggie: Pop culture is nothing if not forever looking forward to the next big thing.

Also: 3 Body Problem was briefly included. The Netflix science fiction show is based on the book The Three-Body Problem, which I haven't read but have heard good things about. The subject matter is also timely, given everything going on with UAP/UFO disclosure right now (the story is about extraterrestrials).

But then I realized the showrunners are David Benioff and D. B. Weiss, otherwise known as the guys who ruined Game of Thrones because they wanted to go work on Star Wars (which thankfully didn't end up happening). It's cool that Netflix is giving them a second chance but that doesn't mean I need to.
