I thought Cyrus was the worst film I saw in '10.
(the John C. Riley character is me on screen)

As I said in the other thread with this list: Damn good list there.
As with any list, I might replace a couple, change the ordering, but that's another quality list from Ebert.

sad to not see Blue Valentine or Rabbit Hole in that list, but i don't think he's even reviewed either yet.
nice to see love for Winter's Bone.

Wrong sequencing as always "The Secret in their Eyes" should have been #2 right after "Inception" and "Toy Story 3" should have been somewhere in there too but oh well I do enjoy reading his reviews even though I disagree with his ratings.

I was glad to see "The Ghost Writer" make both Roger's and the list over at EW. I fear a lot of people will leave this off their year-end lists because a) it came out early in the year and b) it's a Polanski film. It was one heck of a good movie.

Not a great year for movies, nothing I have seen this year is worthy of an Award for best picture...
Well, I take that back, Toy Story 3 is the best movie of the year and belongs on the top.
Ebert would never put that on his list, though I loved watching his TV show and what he has to say, I take it all with a grain of salt. He truely is an Old Time Movie snob.

He loves animation, so it isn't off just because it's animated. The phenomenal Spirited Away ranked #8 on his 2002 list. Finding Nemo was #4 on his 2003 list. Wall-E made his top 20 in 2008 as well (he didn't have a top 10 that year). He's one of the few critics that didn't jizz themselves over TS3 (he gave it a 3 out of 4) and I'm inclined to agree, it wasn't all that amazing but it was still a good movie.
I agree with his #1 pick, haven't seen most of the others though so that could change though doubtful. Winter's Bone was good, Inception was a really entertaining action flick but kind of strange it's getting all this awards attention.

Does he still hold true to the rule of only looking at his four-star reviews for creating lists like this (lists which, in the past, he has said he only does because he felt pressured to do)? That may have something to do with why TS3 or <insert your favorite film here> aren't on the list.
