The American Film Institute has announced its annual Top 10 films of 2024 list and the choices are being touted as being very close to what we’ll likely see as the Oscar Best Picture nominee list when that’s announced next month.
The ten that made the list for this year: “Anora,” “The Brutalist,” “A Complete Unknown,” “Conclave,” “Dune: Part Two,” “Emilia Pérez,” “Nickel Boys,” “A Real Pain,” “Sing Sing” and “Wicked”.
Last year’s list saw eight out of ten nominated titles go on to Best Picture nominations. Going by the discussion coming out of this list so far on social media, the most contentious pick by far is Jacques Audiard’s musical crime comedy “Emilia Perez” which was a hit at Cannes.
In terms of snubs, the films that seem to come up the most as being unfairly snubbed include “Challengers” and “The Substance”.
The institute also announced its Top 10 TV series of 2024 with the list being: “Abbott Elementary,” “The Bear,” “Hacks,” “A Man on the Inside,” “Mr. & Mrs. Smith,” “Nobody Wants This,” “The Penguin,” “Shōgun,” “Shrinking” and “True Detective: Night Country”.
Notable snubs here include “Interview with the Vampire,” “Slow Horses,” and “The Diplomat”.
