Please note; These are for movies WATCHED in 2018, not necessarily made in 2018. I am presenting them with a minimum of commentary. I may update later with additional comments. We'll see.
10) Jumanji (2017) This was a real surprise, easily exceeding the low expectations I'd set for it. Jack Black is a particular blast, taking on the persona of a male avatar inhabited by a teenage girl.
9) A Patch of Blue (1965) This Sydney Poiter classic, where he portrays a black man that a blind young woman has fallen in love with. Shelley plays the girl's mother, blinded by rage, jealousy, and racism.
8) Bad Times at the El Royale (2018) Like a modern film noir, it builds an imaginative, twisty tale, highlighted by the great acting of Jeff Bridges.
7) Bohemian Rhapsody (2018)
6) Hositles (2017)
5) Spider-Man: Into the Spiderverse (2018)
4) The Shape of Water (2017)

Television

I would love to track my favorite books and comics for 2018, but I did not do as good a job at recording them. I will see if I can do better in 2019.
Sorry, this summary is so brief. And yes, it is quirky as it is my opinion, and I have admittedly quirky tastes.
I will try to elaborate as time allows.
