* I've said plenty about Avatar.
* The Blind Side - Haven't seen it, but my brother said Bullock was retarded in it.  He also said that the black guy scored poorly on standardized tests, but he was off the charts on protective instincts.  This should be straight to DVD.
* District 9 - Liked it a lot, but it was heavy handed in areas (seriously . . . Johanesburg?  like we can't figure out the apartheid references unless you beat us over the head?).  Also, they totally had these complex characters and so on, but then made the villain this ridiculous group right out of a comic book
* The Hurt Locker - Just a legitimately good movie.  See it.
* Inglourious Basterds - Worth seeing for many reasons, but not great.  Not Tarantino's worst (that honor goes to Death Trap), but not even remotely thinking about approaching his best.
* Up - Very good.  Not Pixar's best.  Not nearly their worst.  Probably deserves best Animation, though Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was very good.  Cloudy doesn't come close to Pixar's movie in terms of technical achievement.
* A Serioius Man - This damned thing never opened in Miami.  I want to see it and I have no doubt that it will be amazing.  It's made by the best filmmakers of our time, and from what I've read I have the impression that this may be one of their best.  I will probably see it this weekend.  My friend has a screener.
* Up in the Air - Very good.  I don't know about metaphore, but the dialog was great, the story was great, the characters were complex, the issues people were struggling with felt real and relevant.  The whole film seemed really honest, not to mention timely (with the economy the way it is).  And it was funny.  And it didn't rip us off with a syrupy Hollywood ending.  It was a good show, IMO.
.

Edit: Since writing this post I got around to taking a look at the list of nominees.  I mentioned Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs as competition for Up, but I totally forgot that Coraline and Fantastic Mr. Fox came out in 2009 (hilarious, since I went on and on about Coraline just a few posts up :) ).  I would be perfectly happy to see either of those films win over Up.

Those movies are very excellent especially the avatar. It was really an amazing movie and also with all artists. I like the story plot of this film and I am sure this will mark another great impact to the history of entertainment.
