All along, I was thinking that Precious was going to be my number one, but you know what? Tarantino hooked me again. Then again, maybe bad memories of Shadowboxer had something to do with it. Anyway, here are my top 20 rankings and nominations:

1. Inglourious Basterds
2. Precious
3. Fantastic Mr. Fox
4. Up in the Air
5. Hangover
6. An Education
7. 500 Days of Summer
8. Hurt Locker
9. The Informant!
10. In the Loop
11. A Single Man
12. Sugar
13. The Road
14. Away We Go
15. Adventureland
16. Moon
17. Zombieland
18. Men Who Stare at Goats
19. Julie and Julia
20. Up
