Shout out to @timessqkungfu.bsky.social and @headexposure.bsky.social for always being my guiding lights on finding this stuff. Without them this would have been a much more mundane list.

Honorable mention to Tatsujin Warriors which I didn't want to put on the list because I watched it without subtitles and it just didn't feel right. But it could easily go in the top 10. Hell of a year for Koichi Sakamoto (including getting interviewed by The Boys)

What a year for animated action! IAWIA, Chainsaw Man and Ne Zha 2 all had incredible fights and action design. And that doesn't include KPop Demon Hunters which I left off because it's more of a musical with action, and Legend of Hei 2 and Demon Slayer which I didn't see

Hi-Five has the year's best needle drop
I Am What I Am 2 is easily the best pure martial arts movie of the year
Chainsaw Man just wrecked me.
Ghost Killer was the most fun I had watching an action movie.
All four of the them could be swapped around on an any given day

"There was a crack in the Lake House. The Marmonts had let the lake in, but the water could not flow."
I'm proud to debut my sophmore effort from @fangoria.bsky.social on ALAN WAKE 2 where I bridge the game's deeper thematic underpinnings with the philisophical theory of Hyperstition.

In ALAN WAKE 2, players are at times both creator and victim, exploring the concept of “Hyperstition” in a horrifying way, making this perfect for a Halloween season playthrough.

Kinda fascinating watching the Japanese version with English subtitles. All those nuances, phrases, and bits of world building translated over to adds and subtracts in subtle ways.
Still perhaps the most (Producer) Max movie ever. You want it? It's got it.
