Cold winter nights were made for cinema, the kind of films you watch with something warm and don't move until the end. Action with substance, films where the spectacle serves the story rather than replacing it. From the 2010s, arguably the most diverse and globally rich decade in film history. The kind of endings that reframe everything that came before, you'll want to rewatch immediately.
