Review of the Year - 2013

So it's been a busy year, hence the lack of posts on T3-House. But it's always nice to take a look back at a year that, at first glance seemed weak for entertainment, but when you delve a little deeper...

Film of the Year

2013 was looking weak for films. Especially with 2015s films being announced (and what a year that will be...) But it all turned out OK in the end, with the final list to choose from being a tricky one. The top five including Thor 2: The Dark World, Rush, Django Unchained and The World's End. Yet, with some strong competition, the final choice has to go to Alfonso Cuaron's Gravity.


Album of the Year

There was a lot of disappointments this year thanks to the likes of Kings of Leon and Daft Punk, but some rather excellent efforts from Frank Turner, Paramore and especially The 1975. Any other year, any of these albums could have made the top spot, but a truly impressive come-back from a band that just keeps growing has to have it...


Television Series of the Year

An excellent year for television that left many people struggling to keep up to date, and a real rise in the popularity of online services such as Netflix. It's the future, deal with it.

Solid seasons from the usual suspects, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead and Doctor Who, and apparently an excellent final series of Breaking Bad. But it was the new television this year that really impressed, with the stylish and surprisingly enjoyable Dracula and of course yet another home-run from a certain Mr Joss Whedon with Marvel's Agents of Shield.

But Bryan Fuller's Hannibal blew the rest out of the park. Quality over quantity presided here, with 13 episodes that gripped the audience, and a cast of actors at the top of their game.


Television Event of the Year

There's no competition for this one right? Well maybe come Christmas Day there might be...


Agree? Disagree? Remember they're just opinions, but feel free to comment!
