Best Films of 2025 [Poll][CLOSED]

sinners, weapons, one battle after another— wake up dead man, is this thing on? sorry, baby, death does no exist, I only rest in the storm, havoc, no other choice— eternity, it's never over, it was just an accident— Welcome! Twas but a pingpong battle, all through the accident, and not a Frankenstein's creature was stirring, not even a... vampire? demon child? alien? something like that— Anyhow, you know how this works— SUBCATAGORIES: 5 Best Male Performances & 5 Best Female Performances + 5 Best Original Scores Which you may submit up to 10 each, but the final lists will be the top 5. The gist/ rules: BEA composes a list of our 25 favourite films of 2025. You hear that? 25. That's a new idea. The list went chopchop. It's an experiment. We're giving it a shot. We'll see what happens. Shorter. Quality. Less quantity. Less tallying. Yes. More submissions? Maybe. Let's see what happens. If it doesn't work, we'll flip back to 50 next season. All lists will be PMed to me or posted in this thread, maxing out at 25. The final list will be 25 films. I'll be accepting lists of any denotation up to 25. The size of your list determines its weight. Films must be longer than 40 minutes. Any film labelled 2025 on (1 or more of) IMDb, Letterboxd, Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, or Wikipedia will be eligible. Documentaries are allowed. Miniseries (i.e. Adolescence) are not. Lists will also be accepted in IMDb and Letterboxd format. Deadline May 31st. Eligible releases— The Life of Chuck Ineligible releases— When Life Gives You Tangerines Adolescence Stranger Things Balloonerism

I obviously haven't seen enough to declare who's given the Superlative performances of the year, but just saying not caring about whether you win an industry statue is the right mentality.
