Its the end of the year, its the end of a decade. Thus it is time for the first ever
The Double Featurette Awards:

What do these fine films win?
Honor. Glory. Bragging Rights.

If you are a filmaker who has won this year. Pls feel free to print out the following picture on sticker paper and stick to your DVDs (and just watch those sales SKYROCKET).


Several of us here at the Double Featurette will be presenting our end of year lists. Here is mine:

Best Picture:

Fantastic Mr. Fox & Bright Star

Honorable Mention : I would like to yet again plug Zhao Ye's Jalainur which as it has never actually been released (only a handful of festivals) I took out of the running. It is one of the best films I saw this year.

Also, Pixar's Partly Cloudy may not be a full length feature but it is hands down one of the best films of the year.

Best Director:

Hirokazu Koreeda for Still Walking & Wes Anderson for Fantastic Mr. Fox

Best Performance by an Actress:

Mo'Nique in Precious & Abbie Cornish in Bright Star

Best Performance by an Actor:

Dug the Dog in Up & The Jeff Koons Dog in Night of the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian

Best Song:

"Helvetica" by Robert Rodriguez for the Film Shorts. & "Done All Wrong" by Black Rebel Motorcycle Club for (no kidding) The Twilight Saga: New Moon (the list of artists on the soundtrack is actually quite impressive... I have to say... oh hi Thom Yorke...you can print out the sticker if you really want to)
