As usual, various publications and Internet portals have been launched to disseminate these days their lists on the best (and sometimes also the worst) movies released in English in Throughout 2010, and to propose their relations of the best titles from 2001-2010. As indicated last year, and more specifically in my post in this blog on April 23, other means have been launched to make their first statements on the cinema of the past decade within the same accounting for the period 2000-2009 (see http://elcineseguntfv.blogspot.com/2010/04/lo-mejor-y-lo-peor-de-la-decada-2000.html ). As for the nature of these lists, I refer to what I wrote on that occasion, because my views have not changed. The only thing that I do here, more as game as anything, is to group the various votes this entry to me have asked over the last few months. 
Open fire colleagues Film Looks, which number 106 (January 2011) and published its dossier on film last year under the title of Summary 2010. The summary can be accessed at the following link:
http://www.miradas.net/2011/01/actualidad/resumen-2010.html
My collaboration on the same simply to participate in the vote which, in my opinion, were the top ten English films released in cinemas from 1 January to 31 December 2010, as well as the three most overvalued. This was my vote (in alphabetical order): Best movies 
:
The American (The American, 2010), Anton Corbijn. City
life and death (Nanjing Nanjing!!, 2009), Lu Chuan.
writer (The Ghost Writer, 2010), Roman Polanski. (1) I'm Not There

immediately explain that, since had to send my vote before December 31, 2010, and as at that time had not yet seen Biufitul (idem, 2010) (8), which is why I included that in my list of best releases of last year . Have been, could have been removed from the list of best I'm Not There, because ultimately this is a film of 2007 and return to the Alejandro González Iñárritu. I was also very nearly added, of course, Toy Story 3 (idem, 2010, Lee Unkrich), and if in the end I did was because I saw a movie that would be amply declared and / or recognized as it has been.
The Film Looks votes are available on the following link: http://www.miradas.net/2011/01/actualidad/votaciones-2010.html .
also for those dates, the journal Frames asked for my vote as best of 2010. However, when the truth I was unable to properly complete the Top 5 section of English films, because, even though I struggled, only able to vote as two domestic titles last year, both commented Also in this blog: Julia's eyes (2010), Guillem Morales (9), and Great Vázquez (2010), Oscar Aibar (10). Since five English titles vote was essential to make valid the vote, I chose not to participate and delegate my vote on behalf of News pictures, in partner Tonio L. Alarcón. Tonio referred to this in his blog from scratch: http://partiendodelanada.blogspot.com/2011/01/votaciones-2010.html .
Later, the friends of the portal Judex, specializing in fantasy films, I asked for a vote of the 10 best films of this genre of the decade 2001-2010. After many ponderings, I decided to concentrate in the more "pure" and "gender" (in my point of view, of course), horror and science fiction in the strict sense (assuming, of course, that can be "strict" within the boundaries of a genre, by definition, unlimited), and this was the result (in chronological order):
Jeepers Creepers 
(idem, 2001), Victor Salva.
Minority Report (idem, 2002), by Steven Spielberg.
Dark Water (mizu no soko kara Honogurai, 2002), Hideo Nakata.

clarified that here I have not included an extraordinary film in my opinion, and yes I mentioned in my post of April 23, 2010 among the best of the past decade, Rois et reine (2004), Arnaud Desplechin, for the simple reason that the Film Archive vote was limited to English films released in cinemas.
Film Archive The dossier is available at the following link:
The Top 25 films of the 1 st decade of the twenty-first century (2001-2010) : http://www.cinearchivo.com/site/recomendados.asp
Finally, the organizers of MECCA XXI (Movement for the Study and Critics of Film and Audiovisual in the XXI century) asked me a vote of the best films in cinema history, choosing in this case a per decade and within the periods indicated, in order to develop from these an annual vote audiovisual whose first number is supposed to be released this first quarter of 2011. Voting only eleven titles, and summarized them the best of film history, really is a thankless task, believe me, and, after much reflection, I decided that I wanted to do was not vote on the films that I like, but try to select eleven films, in addition to liking, of course, were in some sense (and always under my of view) a summary of the evolution of cinema from its respective decade: those movies that, I think, contain within them the essence of film of its time. Of course, me I have "played" in depth in this respect, and understand that my selection in some cases may be hotly debated, but ultimately, it is just that, to play, that no one would take to chest ... Here are the results:
