The 2012 Moviewallas Awards

Moviewallas Award Mug!

The time has finally come for Moviewallas to vote on our favorite films of 2012.  We argued, arm-wrestled, debated, pondered and discussed and when we could not agree, instead of sulking or sitting on each other until “mercy!” was called, we decided to vote as they do at the Oscars – We made our own lists and then assigned winners using a complicated scoring system.  The results are below along with each of our own top fives.  Let us know what you think and who you agree with most.
