Choose your favorite movie for 2010

Among those that I've seen, I'll go for Inception, The Social Network second.

I guess from your list I've seen:

Inception (4/4)
Toy Story 3 (3/4) Don't get the big deal here.
True Grit (3/4)
The Ghost Writer (4/4)
Exit Through the Gift Shop (3/4)

Inception, just because it is the most exciting, intelligent, philosophical, poignant, brilliant, and masterful sci-fi movie since Blade Runner, which admittedly is kind of less exciting. However, those two are the best science fiction films in the genre, no question.

Definitely Inception!

Two movies I really liked that didn't do well at the box office were Kick Ass and Scott Pilgrim.I am a big fan of the comics and both movies were really good adaptations.

Inception was pretty good, but I voted for Scott Pilgrim.

I've only seen Inception and How To Train Your Dragon, both very good in their own way.

Is it just me or do the poll options switch around every time I view this page?

Well, I made it through the year without us doing a single trip to the theater.  The newest DVD I have is Capitalism A Love Story.  I checked out a little Avatar on cable and was promptly bored to death.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

There should be a Coen Sister so you could have intimacy with her... Tongue

I've only seen 3 from this list, but the best one was probably Toy Story 3. I really want to watch Black Swan though...

Of the movies I've seen this year:
Inception started strong and then gradually became so boring I felt physically drained
Kick-Ass started strong and then suddenly horrified me to the point that I spent the rest of the movie dreading what might come next
Toy Story 3 was unsurprisingly wonderful
Tron was unsurprisingly bad
Shutter Island was entertaining with one of my personal favorite settings in a movie, but other than that it was disappointingly lightweight and mediocre.
Black Swan had a few cheesy moments and some general flaws, but it completely entranced me and left me with a deep emotional impact when it was over.  Probably my favorite, but I feel like there's a chance it won't hold up to a second viewing.  
My vote goes to Four Lions.  I had no idea it existed until I stumbled upon it on the internet, and I suspect that many Americans are likewise unaware.  It should be seen.  It's sincerely funny and treats the subject maturely and with compassion.
