AFI’s Top 10 Best Films Of 2009 Includes THE HANGOVER, Denies AVATAR

The American Film Institute has announced their 10 Best movies of the year and 10 outstanding TV shows as well, two of which are my favorite, Modern Family and True Blood, it’s a shame that Dexter didn’t make it in the list. But since this is a movie blog, thought you might wanna check out their selection for the 10 movies, most of them obviously drama but they mention The Hangover, which I don’t mind, I think it’s everybody’s favorite movie of the year. I’d be more shocked if this culminates in The Hangover being nominated for Oscar’s Best Picture category. But look, AVATAR is not here, THE ROAD and MOON are not in either… in the words of Ed Helm’s character in The Hangover… “What is going on here!”
Check out the list after the jump.
