That Best of the Decade list makes me wonder if the Austin Film Critics membership must be vetted by Harry Knowles before being allowed to vote. Or maybe he's the only critic in the group?

My God that is the worst top 10 list for the decade I've seen so far.

I swear, I'm going to set off a bomb somewhere if that mediocrity known as The Hurt Locker wins another award. What is it with these sheep?

This group's Best of the Decade is truly evil.
