Movie, not in any particular order:
1. Past Lives - a truly touching love story. This is not your sappy melodrama where you can guess the corny ending when the movie starts. A very refreshing take and cathartic experience.
2. The First Slam Dunk - it's directed by the mangaka himself, the GOAT Takehiko Inoue himself. Perfect blend of drama and kinetic basketball action.
3. Killers of the Flower Moon - it may not the best work of Scorsese but still one of the better film this year.
4. The Holdovers - Paul Giamatti and Alexander Payne rekindle their magical collaboration. Superb bantering of snarky dialogues and full of heart in the messaging department.
5. Spider-Man : Across the Spider-Verse - so they "Empire Strike Back" the trilogy with expanded stakes and great new characters.
6. Oppenheimer - Nolan's better movie since Inception. His gimmicky storytelling is wearing thin. All the hoo-ha reduced down to a court room drama with jumping timeline.

Honourable mention - John Wick 4, Bottoms, Air, How to Blow Up a Pipeline, Nimona

For TV :
1. Beef - Superb character studies of ass holes and idiots. In the end you can empathize with these questionable people.
2. Succession - A finale you don't see coming.
3. Last of Us - Joel and Ellie, enough said.
4. The Bear - Truly addictive with all the chaos on every episode.
5. Gen-V - Eff MCU!
6. Top Boy - the end of Sully and Dushane. It's been a wild ride.
7. Blue Eye Samurai - no reason not to like this!
