2011 Hugos

So, in the category of Best Dramatic Presentation - Short, there are three (3!) Doctor Who episodes. "A Christmas Carol," "The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang," and "Vincent and the Doctor."

...wait, really? "Vincent and the Doctor?" You may or may not recall, but I didn't particularly think very highly of that episode. The other two, especially "A Christmas Carol," I can see. Hell, "A Christmas Carol" was... amazing. I think I can safely say that I liked "A Christmas Carol" an incredible amount. It was an even better tear-jerker than "Father's Day," and it may be blasphemous to say it... but I liked it better than "Blink," which officially makes it my favorite Nu Who episode ever.

So yeah, guess which one of those three I'm pulling for.

In long form: Inception. That is all. I think the others are all sequels or adaptations (not sure about How To Train Your Dragon, don't really care). Yes, Toy Story 3 made me bawl about as much as "A Christmas Carol," but still. Give Nolan his due.

Post-Craig Review: Dr. No

 Back to the very beginning. This is a lie. "The beginning" would surely be a review of Ian Fleming's 1953 novel Casino Royale...
