Y'know what I do when I have the weight of the world on my shoulders? I shrug.

We've reached a "taking superheroes seriously" age in cinema. With the last couple of X-Men movies, the Dark Knight, Iron Man, Watchmen and The Incredible Hulk,  superhero movies are finally given more depth and are targeted to a much wider audience, being usually moody and very intelligent.

I'm a superhero movie fan myself, probably closing off my top 3 favorite movie genres - the other two being drama and documentary - and I can geek out really bad at times over upcoming movies (like Iron Man 2!). On that note, I'd like to admit that one of my favorite superheroes is Captain America.

Fightin' in a basement offers a lot of difficulties. Number one being, you're fightin' in a basement!

I love me some Oscars, and its one of my favorite nights of the year (yes - even better than the holidays), but this year the Academy Awards SUCKED. Last year so amazing, they had a cool opening act, a fantastic host, the pacing was great, the awards were beautifully presented by past winners and it was an entertaining night to remember. This year Neil Patrick Harris was surprisingly average, Baldwin and Martin were barely there (with very dry jokes), the awards were given in the most random and fucked up order I've ever seen and IT SUCKED!

I officially declare that this was probably the worst (and most predictable) Academy Awards in the last 10 years.

My post with the Academy predictions and my choices was screwy - so I decided to compile a list of my top 10 movies of the past year.Oh yea - spoiler alert - Avatar didn't make the list..... so suck it.
