Best Movies Of 2010

This title is a misnomer because not only is this list really more like my favorite movies, but this post is mainly dedicated to whom I think the Oscar front runner(s) should be.

In full disclosure, while I have seen a shit ton of movies in 2010, I still have not seen many ones that are considered "good" like 127 Hours, The King's Speech, Blue Valentine, or Winter's Bone (and many more). So subject to me seeing those, here's my list.

Best Movie

Winner: Inception
Runner Up: The Social Network

Best Director
Winner: Christopher Nolan (Inception)
Runner Up: David Fincher (The Social Network)

Best Actor

Winner: Jesse Eisenberg (The Social Network)
Runner Up: Jeff Bridges (True Grit)
NOTE: This runner up is subject to change because I was not all that sold on Bridges and essentially all the movies I listed above have contenders.

Best Actress

Winner: Natalie Portman (Black Swan)
Runner Up: Annette Bening (The Kids Are Alright)

Best Supporting Actor

Winner: Christian Bale (The Fighter)
Runner Up: Justin Timberlake (The Social Network)

Best Supporting Actress

Runner Up: Amy Adams (The Fighter)

Best Script
