The Flame that lits the stake. These awards will be entirely based on my opinions, but I don't plan to have this being an entirely self-indulgent pursuit. I hope that each category will lead to discussion and that people will find themselves playing along and giving their opinions about these various categories. Without further ado: BEST FIGHT AVENGERS ASSEMBLE from AVENGERS: ENDGAMEBATMAN VS JASON BOURNE from FORD VS FERRARI LIBRARY BEATDOWN from JOHN WICK 3BRAD PITT VS BRUCE LEE from ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOODBEN SOLO VS KNIGHTS OF REN from STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKERTHE WINNER: AVENGERS: ENDGAMEI can see certain people choosing Brad Pitt's beatdown of Bruce Lee (or the ending in that movie). Or perhaps any of the outlandish scenes in John Wick 3. But in a year in which both Game of Thrones and Star Wars disappointed the masses, you gotta give it up to the Avengers. Context matters. It was a memorable journey and a satisfying destination. It stuck to landing. Captain America with Thor's hammer. Avengers Assemble. Doomsday and his ladies. "I'm Iron Man." Admit it. You all left the theatre floor sticky.

Thought the Anna part was the best part of the movie but still she was stilted and the quick cuts made her look more fluid than she was.

BEST SOUNDTRACK SPECIAL ACHIEVEMENT AWARD TO: Rocketman and Yesterday It's kinda cheating to make a biopic (or to make a soundtrack around a popular musician or group) but at least with these two movies they made new versions of the songs. Credit where credit is due. And now our nominations: BOOKSMARTGOOD BOYSHUSTLERSJOKER READY OR NOTTHE WINNER: Joker

BEST CAMEO USHER in HUSTLERSLife hasn’t quite been the same since 2003 when Dave Chappelle clowned Lil Jon on the Chappelle Show. “What?! Yeeaah!” ALEX JONES in SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOMEIts been like 6 months. Hopefully y’all saw the movie by now. EDWARD FURLONG in TERMINATOR: DARK FATEBest CGI of the year was used to kill a child from the 90’s. THE WEEKND in UNCUT GEMSJust another Saturday night in which The Weeknd steals your girl. RINGO STARR in YESTERDAYIts been like 6 months. Hopefully y’all saw the movie by now. THE WINNER: Ed Sheeran in Yesterday
