Best Director
Am I the only one here incredibly pumped for the Best Director showdown? Here you have five bona fide auterus, all of them united by their diversity. These aren't Wes Andersons, or Martin Scorseses--they always bring a certain vision to the table, but they have a wide range of styles and abilities. Think Aronofsky, whose fairly conventional The Wrestler has almost nothing to do with the two hour nervous breakdown that is Black Swan. Or the Coen brothers, two men intent on reinventing themselves with every single movie they put out. (For the record: True Grit was instantly forgettable, while A Serious Man might be the best movie I've seen in the last five years.) Anyway, I guess what I'm saying is: Fincher deserves it. Give it to him.
