After THE DARK KNIGHT domination that was our Golden Schmoes awards last year (it broke the record of the most wins at these awards with 12), this year's crop of winners was a little more evenly divided, despite AVATAR beating all kinds of box-office records in North America and around the world in 2009/2010. Surprisingly, this year's big winner was Quentin Tarantino's INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS which won 6 awards including "Favorite Movie", "Best Screenplay" and "Best Director".

UPDATE - This may be our first Golden Schmoes acceptance speech! Eli Roth took to Twitter today and on behalf of the INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS cast and crew said, "Thanks to all the fans who voted for us on @joblocom! One of my favorite movie sites.."

WATCHMEN also placed a surprising second with 5 wins including "Coolest Character", "Best Trailer" and Malin Akerman for "Best T&A" (I know she's hot, but was she really the hottest girl in movies this past year? Yipes.) Despite its 9 nominations, STAR TREK could only finish with 3 runner-up positions for "Best Sci-Fi", "Best Trailer" and "Best DVD". MOON was a nice surprise with 3 wins this year including "Most Underrated", "Best Actor" (Congrats to Rockwell!) and "Best Poster", while AVATAR managed the same amount of wins although one of them was for "Most Overrated Film" of the year. Doh!

This year's winners were clear favorites for the most part (Christoph Waltz for "Best Supporting Actor" anyone?) although two categories were super-close this time around, including "Best Supporting Actress" which was between Monique from PRECIOUS and Diane Kruger from INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS, as well as the year's "Biggest Disappointment" which was between WOLVERINE and TERMINATOR: SALVATION. So close! You can see the full list of winners RIGHT HERE.

My personal faves include all the wins by MOON, the 2 wins from ZOMBIELAND for "Best Horror" and "Most Memorable Scene" (BASTERDS had 3 nominees in this category and the votes for each one cancelled each other out), "Best Sci-Fi" and "Biggest Surprise" for DISTRICT 9 and the "Best Line" coming from TAKEN, which also finished as the runner-up for "Biggest Surprise" of the year ("I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want...but I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you."). Nice!

Also, for the second time in the history of the Schmoes, the same celebrity takes the "Favorite Celebrity" tag for 2 years in a row (Robert Downey Jr.). Johnny Depp did the same thing back in 2003-2004, but won it a 3rd time in 2007 as well. Natch. 

Thanks to everyone who participated again this year and who keep making our little awards ceremony more and more popular every year. And if you haven't done so already, be sure to enter our OSCAR PREDICTION CONTEST right HERE! And stay tuned for our Oscar coverage, this coming Sunday, March 7th. See ya'll next year!

MOST WINS:

Inglourious Basterds: 6 wins
(Favorite Movie, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actress,
Best Supporting Actor and Breakthrough Performance of the year)

Watchmen: 5 wins
(Best Music, Best Trailer, Best DVD, Coolest Character and Best T&A)

Moon: 3 wins
(Most Underrated, Best Actor and Best Poster)

Avatar: 3 wins
(Most Overrated, Best Special Effects and Best Action Sequence)

How did Friday the 13th not win best T&A? Julianna Guill has the greatest rack I've seen in a long time.

And it's not like reviewers were wrong, most praised it as an absorbing special FX film, no one said it was The Godfather. But it's influence and audience connection cannot be denied and it is changing cinema whether people acknowledge it or not. It was a great blockbuster through and through, especially after watching trite like 2012 and TF2. You wanna talk overrated - Inglourious Basterds. What a stupid fucking movie...but pepper in some "witty" dialogue and it's a winner! Hahaha so lame.

Where the Wild Things Are doesn't even finish top two for best trailer?! Utterly ridiculous. That trailer (the one with the Arcade Fire song) was unbelievable. While Watchmen and Star Trek were both good I couldn't stop watching the Wild Things trailer. Oh well.

Apparently you haven't read the graphic novel. Alan Moore explicitly states various songs that were to be used for scenes and quotes them at the beginning/ending of each chapter.

If you seriously think it was a mismatch your beef should be with the comics creator/writer; not with the film itself.

I dont really mind that Inglorious Basterds won the most and biggest awards. It was really a great film. I just hate that Avatar won Most Overrated. That should of gone to Paranormal Activity. I wont deny the praise Avatar has gotten but really? PA was said the scariest movie in years and hundreds went to see it and it was garbage!

Initially, I didn't care too much for Inglorious Basterds. As a fan of nearly all of Tarantino's work, I didn't get it. It wasnt until numerous rewatching that I have come to appreciate it for the masterpiece it is. The script is nearly flawless, and you'd be hard pressed to find another director who can make you laugh at a Jew hunting Nazi (ala Pipe scene early on). The only movie that...

The only movie that even comes close this year is A Serious Man, but it just doesn't seem to be getting the love it deserves. Hurt Locker was great, but not the best pic of the year.

Bastards is totally over-rated. Watchmen is totally under-rated but I'm glad to see we did it justice here. As for Malin, she deserves the win, even though Julianna comes very, very close on the HOT-ometer.

District 9 should have won everything. Inglorious Basterds was 'ok' but nothing compared to the Robocop-esque District 9. And a battle scene where people explode is way cooler than giant blue Native-Americans on Pterodactyls vs. futuristic helicopters.

Pleasing to see a backlash against Revenge of the Fallen- truly the worst film of last year and (though my memory may be failing me here) the last decade.

On the other hand, I'd say Drag Me To Hell was a horror comedy and Zombieland was a comedy horror. Both were better than The Hangover, so DMTH should really have won for horror and Zombieland for comedy. Schmoes have spoken though :)

Why can't the Inglorious haters just say they didnt like it? and what I mean by that... they didnt get it.



There's a reason everyone ELSE is loving it and you are not. do the math.

by not getting it i mean it wasnt what they thought they were paying for. Too much talking for them/subtitles/lack of basterds/etc.
never been to the IMDB forums... but truly "lame" is saying something is "overrated" while others are genuinely loving it. Even lamer is thinking you are the arbiter of what's "lame".

Well, I'll be the first to admit I missed the "IB greatness" boat, but would love if someone at least pointed me in the direction of why made it great - exclude Christopher Waltz in that answer, though. That's all I'M sayin'

So good riddance 2009.. and welcome 2010!



I cannot wait to see I-MAN2, Expendables, Inception, Kick-Ass... and so many others!



If last year was good.. then this year is without a doubt going to rock!!

Good List
Can't really complain with the outcome as it closely resembles my ballot. To me, IB was the best movie of the year, bar none. So I'm glad to see it come away with a lot of wins. And I loved Watchmen, too. Though, while Akerman is a pretty girl, Julianna Guill... man, that sex scene in F13 could have been a contender for most memorable scene. I sure as hell can't forget it.

Besides, did the Basterds even kill a dozen Nazi's (final scene excluded)? "Each one of you of owes me one hunnit Nazi scalps! And I want my scalps!" The only fascinating part was Christopher Waltz who felt like the only real Bastard in this film. But damn, the way nominations have been lately... I'm surprised that Where the Wild Things Are isn't getting some sort of "Best Awesome Picture that only a dozen people pretend to understand Award" My two cents...

Eh.
I picked a good lot of those, but it's really funny to see that all of the categories Watchmen either won or were runner up for were all the reasons that the movie was terrible - especially music. Overall I wish there was some more love for the Hurt Locker but I can understand that not many people saw it.

Congrats to Watchmen. The film beat some odds. The work was much debated, and people continue debating on this very board. I liked the adaptation of a favorite book.

JoBlo is right. Where's Star Trek? Not that we do not appreciate the new enterprise. Star Trek was well-made, well-acted, and a rare well-done reboot.

Fine list of winners. Bravo and boffo, I tell ya!

I've seen Inglorious Bastards 3 times, in the hopes that I find all the greatness that everybody else seems to be finding in the movie, but it just does nothing for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's a horrible movie and I'm not bashing it in any way, I just don't understand how it's getting so much praise.

Rockwell finally gets recognized, always awesome. But as much as I love District 9, how can it get biggest surprise? Didn't everyone think it was gonna be great. It had huge hype, a terrific marketing campaign, and great trailers. Then again, I'm in the minority of thinking Taken was a lazy action movie.



Not trying to complain though, awesome winners and a great year for film.

The film with the smarter screenplay and better acting (though the latter is arguable) is the better movie. Oh, and people being sick of PG-13 horror could have had something to do with it.

A film like Drag Me to Hell is hindered by not being R-rated.

How is "most overrated" considered a win? And it lived up to all the hype, so that doesn't make any sence. Oh, and watchmen had to be one of the worst movies I've seen in years. Felt like it was 5 hours long.

Um . . . Soloist, Watchmen and Avatar are about the same length, and he liked Avatar. I didn't really like what he had to say either, but calling him out on a short attention span is unwarranted.

You sir are an idiot. I guess you do not have the time span to sit through good movies like Watchmen. You call Watchmen a bad movie, but yet you praise trash like Avatar...idiot

Im happy with the way the winners came out. Inglourious Basterds deserves all the awards it got and Im happy Sam Rockwell won even though Renner was really good too. Also, like the love that Watchmen got this year, very good movie; dont understand all the hate...til next year!

Good for Basterds. I don't think it deserved all the awards it got but it was an incredible film. I agree with Derek237 about the music. Watchmen's soundtrack wasn't that great. I personally voted for Up in that category. But heres to another Golden Shmoes! Congrats Quentin, if you don't win a gold man just know we love you here. By the way does it count as a win for Avatar if it got most...

Awesome! Zombieland won for most memorable scene! I strongly disagree with Watchmen's win for best music though...it's mostly like Zac Snyder skimmed through his CDs of "Best of the 60's Music" and slapped them onto the soundtrack. Congrats to IB for all the wins, though. Deserved it.
