5th VAMPIBOTS ANNUAL LIST: Special Categories

So, this year, I'm adding a few other categories to my Annual List. Sebenarnya sudah ingin membuat kategori-kategori dari tahun lalu, tapi baru kesampaian sekarang. Pertama-tama, saya sepertinya tidak akan mengeluarkan my Top 10 Shots of the Year, karena kekurangan waktu dan rasanya tahun lalu tidak ada begitu ada shot yang benar-benar menawan buat saya. Except one, yang saya cantumkan di bawah ini. Begitu pula dengan Memorable Moments yang saya pecah menjadi Best Music Moments dan beberapa kategori lainnya dalam post ini. Ada beberapa tambahan kategori juga di bawah ini, well... just for fun. Dig in, lads!


SHOT OF THE YEAR
WINNER: 12 YEARS OF SLAVE
This image really one of the most powerful scene from that film. Look at how terrifying a shot of man being publicly hanged. But what's worse is that all the people in the background act as if it was nothing. 


BEST OPENING SEQUENCE
WINNER: Let's go shopping from THE BLING RING
Runner-ups: 'Hang Me oh hang me' from INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS, Mason's anecdote cut short from SHORT TERM 12


BEST ACTION SEQUENCE
WINNER: Satellite Avalanche in GRAVITY
Runner-ups: Free Fall Rescue in IRON MAN 3 and Israel under attack in WORLD WAR Z


BEST CLOSING SEQUENCE
WINNER: Jasmine's crazy chattering in BLUE JASMINE
Runner-ups: Captain Phillips finally breaks in CAPTAIN PHILLIPS and That Goddamn whistle in PRISONERS


GOOD THING IN A BAD FILM
WINNER: The music in THE BLING RING
Runner-ups: Cinematography in TO THE WONDER and the action in OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN * I didn't watch a lot of bad films though, so this is a tough choice


BAD THING IN A GOOD FILM
WINNER: Brad Pitt in 12 YEARS A SLAVE
Runner-ups: the overly long sex scenes from BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR  and the downer ending of INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS. *no disrespect, but these choices are not that bad, but I think they are just a little distracting


MOST UNDERWHELMING FILM
WINNER: THE WORLD'S END
Runner-ups: MAN OF STEEL and BLUE IS THE WARMEST COLOR. *again, no disrespect, all are pretty decent films, but because of the hype and my anticipation was quite high, these films didn't manage to reach em.


MOST UNDERRATED FILM
WINNER: OBLIVION
Runner-ups: WORLD WAR  and WARM BODIES


BEST QUOTE FROM A FILM
WINNER: "I'm so embarrassed, I'm not a real person yet." from FRANCES HA
Runner-ups: "A wise man can learn more from his enemies than a fool from his friends." from RUSH and "If you ride like lightning, you're gonna crash like thunder" from THE PLACE BEYOND THE PINES


FILM CHARACTER OF THE YEAR
WINNER: Frances Halladay from FRANCES HA
Runner-ups: Olaf from FROZEN and Theodore Twombly from HER


Waiting for my Best of 2013? Well.... You have to wait a bit longer :( I'll be giving out some other awards (3 other posts, to be exact!) before I reveal them to you. But don't worry it's coming really soooon!!

  1. Setuju mengenai Blue. Gw nggak ada masalah sama sex scenes, segraphic apapun itu. Tp kalo durasinya sampe 10 menit itu rasanya kok agak berlebihan ya. I like the film tho. Kl gak salah banyak yg ngritik Brad Pitt jg, nggak penting bgt dia. Kalo Llewyn Davis itu sih endingnya tipikal Coens bgt.

    Nice list btw! France Ha really dominates this post, lol.

  2. Wah nggak masukin shot nya Sandra Bullock yang seperti dalam kandungan itu ya? nonton 2x di Bioskop, masih terkagum-kagum sama shot yang di Gravity itu. Cantik banget.
