Doesn't look like we'll have a great deal of overlap elsewhere, but your top two films are also my top two as of right now, Damien. Also glad to see a shout out for Evan Martin's excellent work in World's Greatest Dad.

Not quite ready for my list, but thanks to Netflix Instant Play for PS3, it'll come sooner rather than later.

I liked Avatar, and will probably keep it there, but this list isn't set in stone until I see a few others.

As for Laurent's placement, I've had that problem before. Remember Naomi Watts in King Kong? I thought she was really good, but couldn't seem to place her in the right category. Some people suggested her for Lead and some for support, so I replaced her rather than leave the confusion. Of course, I think this performance is even better than that one, but Best Actress is so crowded! You could make a similar argument regarding Marion Cotillard.
