Maybe I should have put La La Land at number one by mistake and then fixed it like the Oscars. I took my oldest to see Kubo and the Two Strings, but his younger brother who was only a year old at the time has really taken to that movie in recent years, some beautiful animation in it. The 2010s was really the time when theatrical studio comedies started to die out, but there were some good ones in this year.
