*I will fully admit that while I saw a lot of movies this year, I did not see as many of the "Oscar-worthy" films as I would have liked (The Tree of Life, Shame, The Artist, The Descendants, Hugo, The Ides of March). Without those films, this list is pretty pointless, but whatever.
Anyway, here are my awards for the year, following a similar format as last year:
Stinker of the Year (winner in italics)
Transformers: Dark of the Moon
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2
Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (seriously, I love this series, but this movie was a train wreck)
The Thing
Best Comic/Children's Book Adaptation
Thor
Captain America: The First Avenger
X-Men: First Class
Mindless Fun Award
Fast Five
Scream 4
Real Steel
Best Actor
Daniel Craig - "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo"
Michael Fassbender - "X-Men: First Class" (Based on what I've head, I have a feeling he would be in here for A Dangerous Method or Shame anyway if I had seen them)
