What I Thought About The 2010 Best Picture Nominations

I plan to do a post before the Oscars about who I think should win but here were my reviews for the ten nominees for Best Picture.

Movie of the Week – Toy Story 3

I actually saw this movie like two weeks ago but it took me this long to actually write about it.

I definitely feel that the first two Toy Story movies were funnier but I feel like Toy Story 3 was the best film.  It was pretty much a dramedy.

There were so many great moments and character moments that I could probably write a paper on them but I don’t want to spoil anything. I loved everything about this movie.

Oh, and the last 15 minutes.  My eyes start getting misty just thinking about it (note the new “Seans” above).  Actually, if you know someone who has seen the movie and you want to kill their mood, just say, “Dude, the last 15 minutes of Toy Story 3” and watch their shoulders slump.  I really don’t want to get into details but if you saw it, let’s talk in the comments because I don’t want to write about it anymore.

Best movie of the year so far.
