Former President Barack Obama has released his list of his favorite books, films and songs of the year.

His “Best Of” films list has some pretty solid picks as he gives shout outs to some of the most acclaimed films of the year.

The eclectic list includes blockbuster juggernaut and cultural phenomenon Black Panther, the critically-acclaimed yet underappreciated Blindspotting (with a cast including Daveed Diggs, Jasmine Cephas Jones and Tisha Campbell), the indie comedy flick Support the Girls (the film Regina Hall is receiving rave reviews for), Barry Jenkins’ latest opus, If Beale Street Could Talk (which includes highly-praised performances from Regina King and Brian Tyree Henry) and Spike Lee’s BlacKkKlansman.
