Best Movies of 2023 – ep 134

In this special episode of Old Millennials Remember Movies, we remember and share our favorite movies from 2023.

Despite his intense schedule of law school, continuing to write part-time, and still helping to raise our four kids, Tyler still found time to watch more than 125 movies that came out in 2023. Per usual, he came up with a pretty respectable list for his Top 10 Movies for 2023. I, on the other hand, crammed as many 2023 movies in weeks before recording (and delayed recording until March!). I also wanted to spice it up and try something different this year, so I ended up choosing specific criteria that ruled out some of the more popular movies of the year. It challenged me to watch some movies I otherwise might not have watched.

Even though our lists are pretty different, we have some fantastic crossovers. Take a break from the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s movies with the Old Millenials, and check out some great flicks from 2023 (many of which are available to stream at home).

We’ll be back to our usual programming next week! We have been in the mood to re-watch Titanic, but we’ll see…
