Does anyone else think having an award for “Films for Mature Audiences” is a bit presumptuous and exclusive? Maybe I missed the point, it just kinda struck me weird. And can someone tell me how Terminator Salvation ended up on that list?

and why is terminator salvation, confessions of a shopaholic and knowing in there
Wow – I totally thought this was going to be an article about the adult film industry, and then I saw a picture of Sandra Bullock. That’s a bit of a mind f*%#
Don’t do that to me!!
How did they miss out on District 9, Hurt Locker, Where The Wild Things Are, Sherlock Holmes, A Christmas Carol, Up, Zombieland!! That selection is horrible minus Star Trek and Taken.
