Oh yeah, I definitely agree that the accusations will always exist. Doesn't make certain reactions any less mind boggling though.

And yeah, I totally agree that 2010 was a pretty good year, particularly in its latter half. Lots of enjoyable films. With the exception of Grit (which I did like, but came out slightly disappointed due to the hype, which is partially my fault for sure), I love every film on this poll. As much as I love Inception, TSN is such a close second for me, and I can definitely acknowledge what a masterfully crafted movie it is. And I really need to see Black Swan again, which sits in third for me. It could potentially tie TSN, which I've seen three times to Black Swan's one. I think the common complaint I've heard about 2010 though is that the year's summer blockbuster season was a bit dry. While I'm often inclined to agree (although Inception really did make the summer for me), I need only begin listing off 2011's summer lineup to suggest that a tidal wave is coming to make up for 2010's supposed "drought."
