2010 Movie Awards

Another year has come and gone. If you remember the past couple of years, I have done my personal movie awards. Well, this will be the 3rd annual “Let’s All Go to the Movies Movie Awards”

The rules are simple…nominated films are those that I have seen and reviewed in the past year. In other words, these awards, unless otherwise noted, are for films I’ve reviewed this year, and don’t necessarily reflect film that were released in 2010 (except for that particular category). So, if I saw a film in 2008 and then watched it again this year, it is not eligible. Get it? Got it? Good. Enjoy!
