La La Land


We convinced the ITTDB muckety-mucks to include La La Land in our list based on James Bojaciuk’s impassioned argument that Mia and Seb’s love is “so deep they not only broke time, [but] in the space of a few minutes they lived an entire year and decided on what their destiny should have been.” Is it actually time travel? Probably not, but take a look at Bojaciuk’s blog and read the cited quotes from writer/director Damien Chazelle before you commit yourself to saying no to Mia, Seb, and La La Land. —Michael Main

Sebastian: I’m always gonna love you, too.
