Full Disclosure: ALL THE MOVIES RELEASED IN 2011, AS SEEN BY ME.

My personal top ten movies of 2011 is, finally, around the corner.  The Oscar nominations are getting announced soon so I better just throw down my list before then.  I was holding out because there are some key 2011 movies I wasn’t able to see in time for list-making, but enough is enough, I guess.  It’s January 22nd already.

So this is a preliminary post to let you know where I’m coming from, then we’ll do all the rest tomorrow. 

For the record: My personal top 20 of 2010, from last year.

P.S. As always, I do this under the assumption that anyone cares, which is a leap I have no choice but to take.
