I watched a lot of films, due to the film marathons, that I wouldn't normally have.
I gained a new appreciation of Bela Lugosi after watching quite a few of his movies. Of his Monogram 9 films, probably the most well directed was The Invisible Ghost, it also allowed him to play a character outside of the usual roles he was typecast in.
I discovered several obscure movies including Son of Ingagi, a 1940 horror movie with an all-black cast.
I also discovered several foreign films which I enjoyed, including :
La Llorona (The Crying Woman)
À Meia-Noite Levarei Sua Alma (At Midnight I´ll Take Your Soul)
Planet of the Vampires. I really enjoyed the visuals in this, even though I found the ending a bit of a let down.
Animated movies I enjoyed included:
The Snow Queen
Under Milkwood. Due to Richard Burton's marvellous voice.
From Up on Poppy Hill
Miyori's Forest
The Adventures of Prince Achmed
The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship
A Midsummer Nights Dream (Jiri Trnka)
Night is Short, Walk on Girl
Nezha Conquers the Dragon King
I enjoyed the old Dr. Strange comics, particularly the artwork of Steve Ditko and Frank Brunner.
It's late for me so books will be added soon.

Sadly, 2022 media went by me mostly unnoticed.
Did finally see Everything Everywhere All At Once and found it wonderful.
Of the few films I've seen, I pretty much liked them all. Wakanda Forvever, Strange World, The Bad Guys and Multiverse Of Madness were all good to great in some fashion.
I have a lot of catching up to do.
Comics, I've been sticking to older stuff. I can't remember much of last year's releases, sadly.
I need to read Do A Powerbomb, by Daniel Warren Johnson. He did Murder Falcon and that is by far one of my favorite comics in the last decade.
