Best of 2010 (Miscellaneous)

[Shrykespeare]

I don't know if we're going to do the "Fantie" Awards this year, but whatever the case, I thought I'd start a thread where we list our favorite things from the movies of 2010, in categories that are more the MTV Movie Awards than the Oscars, as well as a few others. If you guys want to have a collective list or a voting process, so be it. Please limit your choices to five per category.


BEST LINES

"It's so fluffy I'm gonna die!" Agnes, Despicable Me
"You just contact the mayor's office. He has a special signal he shines in the sky; it's in the shape of a giant cock." Hit Girl, Kick-Ass
"What is with you gays? Are you really that repulsed by lady parts? What do you think I have down there? A gnome?" Olive, Easy A
"This is Berk. It snows nine months out of the year, and hails the other three. The food that grows here is tough and tasteless. The people that grow here are even more so. The only upsides are the pets. While other places have ponies or parrots, we have... dragons." Hiccup, How to Train Your Dragon
"You would not believe what I have been through tonight!" Mr. Potatohead, Toy Story 3

We need to do the awards.

Buscemi, Desplat's work on Ghost Writer is leagues better than King's Speech.

[Buscemi]

I forgot that Desplat did the music on The Ghost Writer, actually. Probably because he's been everywhere lately.

[jas8382]

I am all for doing the awards, and I'm willing to help out if needed.

[W]

Hmm... Can the hero of a film still be called the villain? I don't know. I'm speaking specifically of Gru.

I've got just a couple of nominations for the categories that Shryke posted:

Best Quotes:
"Ooo, some coins." - Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
"You have part of my attention - you have the minimum amount." - The Social Network

Best On-Screen Duo:
Scott Pilgrim and Ramona Flowers, "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World"

Most Memorable Character (Male):
Max Zuckerburg, "The Social Network"

[Shrykespeare]

I thought about that, W. In the end, I included him because he spent more time during the span of the movie TRYING to be the villain than he did being the hero. By that logic, I discounted Megamind, who really stopped being the villain the moment he "defeated" Metro Man.
