Here comes the 8th Annual Movies Roundup of the Year post. This time delayed by a week due to travels, and that also meant I had my first 0 (that is z.e.r.o) blog posts in 2017, first time since I started to blog a dozen years back. Anyway, that shall be taken care of this year, now back to why we're here - Movies of 2017.
If you enjoy a bit of stats and nostalgia, here are the reviews from the years gone by 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, & 2016.
Like the previous year, 2017 was a year of #100MoviesPact with friends as well. However, quite early on I had reset my target to 52 (one per week) as I had a lot of shows to catch up on, and yes, completed all 7 seasons of Game of Thrones from ground zero. So, my final tally of 66, though 10 short of 2016, was actually satisfying.
Here is the Summary Table (in its 11th year) of movies released in the same year (2017 for this post) that I watched.

*1 of the 2017 release movies was the Czech movie Ice Mother.
Good to touch an average of 7s in spite of watching more current year movies than in any year since 2007.
The split of the movies by source (not just 2017 movies) was as follows, and like last year the Seattle Public Library was once again the shining star, providing DVDs from another era to the just released Wonder Woman and Trapped.
And now for rankings. As always, Top 5 Hindi and English movies of the year (released in 2017). Disclaimer: I haven't watched a bunch of highly acclaimed movies such as: any of the Golden Globe nominees! and quite a few Bollywood ones like Bareilly Ki Barfi, Shubh Mangal Savdhan, Secret Superstar, Tumhari Sulu etc.
