I actually prefer Harry Potter to all of these.

Mary and Max is instantwatchable and if you haven't seen it already, you haven't seen the best film of the year.
Yep. Seen it. Love it. Among my favorites of the year so far.

Um. Why are you watching movies you already watched? Why not try White Material or something?
Um. What? I haven't seen any of those I listed. If White Material was in town though, I would see that one before any of the others.

Black Swan and/or True Grit. Flip a coin, I guess.
Yeah, those are the two I'm waffling between. I'm leaning towards True Grit.

I actually prefer Harry Potter to all of these.
I would really like to see that one, too, although I suppose it's less "significant" relative to the awards season.

Swan or Grit. Grit probably has the performances, Swan is probably the better film overall.

I've yet to see The King's Speech, but I can't wait to see it, so that being said I'd rank them...

1. Black Swan
2. True Grit
3. The Fighter
4. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I

I agree with Sam. Yeah, sounds odd to me too.

Seems like a lot of you are saying Black Swan and True Grit. Maybe I can convince Uri of a double-feature . . .


Yeah, sounds odd to me too.
What sounds odd? (Edit: Nevermind, I got it. Brain on slow function today.)

I really loved Black Swan. True Grit would be my next choice.

Yes, but Awards-wise it's the least important of the group.

Who cares about Awards? It's all about the films, man!

Filmspot fever!

Mary and Max
or
Enter the Void

Or should I watch the first in the Red Riding trilogy? Is that filmspot eligible (or relevant)?
