Take it back! TAKE IT BACK!!!
In all seriousness, it probably should have been Black Swan. Social Network was a solid second for me. Both were brilliant films.
Oscars rarely ever get it “right” and even so there will always be debate over which film “deserved” it more.
If I ever did my top 100 list from the prior decade, it would defiantly include the two I listed above and possibly 127 hours. It was a strong list of nominees, for the most part. Haven’t seen The Kids are Alright yet. The King’s Speech, which was ok, would have been like....6 or 7th on my ballot of the nominees.
