2015 Salute to Cinema Movie Montage

View fullsize

The end of 2015 is upon us, and you know what that means! It means we're going to start seeing lots of these montages showcasing the awesome films that have been released over the last year. This first video that has been released is called "2015 Salute to Cinema," and it was edited together by Ben Zuk, who says:

"With one month to go, 2015 is pretty much over and I suppose it's never too early to start looking back and trying to make sense of it all. I tried to tell a story about the movies of 2015, wanting to acknowledge some of the changes we've seen. I got 164 movies in. I'm certain I've forgotten someone's favorite, but I hope I got close. Happy Holidays and I hope you enjoy the video. Thank you very much to all the people who continue to share these montages all year round making the love of movies universal."

There were a lot of great movies this year, and I've just started putting my list together of favorite films. I've still got a few more to watch before the list can be completed. This video ranges from big blockbuster films like Mad Max: Fury Road, to great indie films like Me and Earl and the Dying Girl, to crappy bombs like Pixels. What were some of your favorite films included in the video?
