You know the rules. Here goes the action category.
Best Picture: The Dark Knight
The undeniable winner. It blended action and drama/noir in a way no other comic book film ever has. The Dark Knight was action packed, but also thoughtful in telling its story. It may be awhile before the world of cinema is treated to something like The Dark Knight again. And props to any movie that almost dethrones Titanic as the highest grossing film of all time.
Best Screenplay: Iron Man
Iron Man would have been the best action/comic book movie if it weren't for The Dark Knight. But despite not being the best picture overall, the award for best screenplay suits Iron Man. The film was funny, fresh, and quick. It would be an easy movie to ruin, but instead turned out to be one of the finer films of the year, and of the genre.
Best Acting: Heath Ledger (The Dark Knight)
Does this need to be explained? Ledger created one of the finest villains to grace the silver screen. Enough said.
Best Production: Quantum of Solace
James Bond is a bad ass, so it is important the film he leads look the same. Quantum of Solace has a sleek, but dark, image that mirrors the infamous spy's emotional state. Every city and exotic location Bond travels to rings true to the audience.
Best Director: Chris Nolan (The Dark Knight)
It has to be. He had a vision and executed it perfectly. Nolan is a true master, and is the man who made Batman more than an iconic childhood hero.
