Don't let the lackluster ho-hum holiday season cinema schlockfest fool you. 2010 was a stellar year for films. In a break from tradition, quality films did not only turn up during the Oscar-friendly month of December. On the flip side, many entertaining films and inspiring performances were seen in the first half of the year and fall -- so much so I think that's the reason December has been so blah humbug. Had films like The Town, Toy Story 3, or even Easy A opened in multiplexes in the height of the holiday season rather than The Tourist, Little Fockers, or Yogi Bear, it would've felt like a sweeter end to the 2010 film year. But, I'd prefer it this way. As an avid moviegoer, I'd much rather check out great flicks throughout the year rather than cramming as many as I could in a December to remember. Realizing you need another "best of" column from a blogger like you need another Focker sequel, I've kept my column short and to the point. Weigh in on yours!
