George Clooney shows up twice on both lists. They also showed Owen Gleiberman's "worst of" list, which was also topped by a Clooney film (The Men Who Stare at Goats).

You couldn't find a bigger pair of shitstain so-called "film critics" than Gleiberman and Schwarzbaum. Maybe those two nutsuckers who took over for Ebert & Roeper? Meh. That having been said, there's nothing there screams out to me "hackwork" from those lists so I will gracefully not say a word. Except to reiterate that you couldn't find a bigger pair of shitstain so-called "film critics" than Gleiberman and Schwarzbaum.

I love Soderbergh mostly, even the edgier stuff, but The Girlfriend Experience was excruciating.
No Avatar, No Star Trek. hmm . . .

Those all look like (or are) some of the best 10. That's all anyone can expect with a list.

It's interesting to see Girlfriend Experience on one of the lists. I can't imagine many hardcore porn stars have ever made any non-adult top 10 lists.

*I should also point out that I haven't seen many 2009 releases at all and I Love You, Man will most likely fall out once I catch up on film.

I though it was a pretty decent film. Soderbergh wasn't really exploitative at all and it had some interesting things to say about our material obsessions.

I have to admit, I usually think those two are terrible anyway so I'm not the best to compare and contrast.
'I Love You, Man' is truly confusing though.
Of those type of movies, I didn't even think it was all that great. Very mediocre, and that's when you compare it to similar films within whatever-the-hell genre it is.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ebert puts "the Girlfriend Expierence" in his top 10 of the year as well.

2. Moon
3. Up in the Air
4. District 9
5. 500 Days of Summer
6. The Hurt Locker
7. The Road
8. Watchmen
