BEST ON-SCREEN READ: Helena Bonham Carter playing Hermione playing Helena Bonham Carter in Harry Potter. (Watch the clip)

BEST MOVIE EVERYONE FORGOT TO SEE: Martha Marcy May Marlene. How good was that trailer though? Is this on Netflix yet? The film's star Lizzie Olsen gets our OLSEN OF THE YEAR award––we never met an Olsen we didn’t love!

BEST MOVIE POSTER: Melancholia. Depressed or not, Kirsten Dunst-meets-Ophelia is totally beautiful.

BEST TEENAGE APOCALYPTIC ROMCOM THRILLER: Kaboom. To quote OC's Zac, “Kaboom is packed with everything that makes Araki Araki: genius insults, conspiracy theories, drugs, sex, blood, barf, and apocalyptic twists and turns that result in true genre-less-ness. Amazing!”
