Yearly, we at Flickchart publish our present record of the Prime 20 movies of the earlier yr (as we did in January with the Top 20 Films of 2022). Then, a yr later, we glance once more, and see how the chart has advanced over time, as extra customers see extra movies and make extra rankings (as we just lately did with the Top 20 Films of 2021).
Final yr, for the primary time, we took a glance again 5 years, and noticed how the rankings for the Top 20 Films of 2016 had modified much more over time. Now, the yr 2017 will get its due. Our earlier lists have been revealed on January 1, 2018 and January 9, 2019. Be part of us, and try how YOUR rankings have helped Flickchart adapt and alter.

Not one of the movies that appeared on our unique record (revealed January 1, 2018) have dropped out of the Prime 40 for the yr. Paddington 2 wins the prize for biggest upward momentum; when the second record was revealed initially of 2019, it was clocking in at #26.
