Scannain End of Year Podcast 2018

It's time for the latest Scannain podcast!

It's the end of the year, which means that this is an episode all about celebrating the year that has been. Darren Mooney, Luke Dunne from Film in Dublin, Grace Duffy, Jay Coyle and Ronan Doyle discuss 2018 in terms of films. That means a general natter about the year as a whole, an exploration of the top ten films at the Irish box office, a run down through our individual top tens, and the formation of a consensus Scannain top ten films of the year.

The end of year box office top ten is...

1. Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again
2. A Star is Born
3. Avenger: Infinity War
4. Incredibles 2
5. Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom
6. Peter Rabbit
7. Bohemian Rhapsody
8. Black Panther
9. The Grinch
10. The Greatest Showman

 

And the consensus Scannain top ten films of the year are...

• 10. BlacKkKlansman / Mission: Impossible - Fallout
• 09. Phantom Thread
• 08. Rosie
• 06. Faces Places / Annihilation
• 05. Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse
• 04. The Image You Missed
• 03. Dogman
• 02. Lady Bird
• 01. You Were Never Really Here

To get the individual top tens, which cover thirty-eight films in total, you'll just have to listen to the podcast.
