Ranking The 2011 Oscar Best Picture Nominees

I finished watching the Coen Brothers' True Grit last night (review pending, but I didn't hate it unlike most of their recent work) and thus completed seeing all 10 of this year's Oscar Best Picture nominees.

Last year, if I had a ballot, I would've voted for District 9 in the #1 slot. Here are how I would rank this year's picks. The #3-#8 entries are sort of fungible in their ordering, but the others are pretty much locked in their respective places.
  1. The Social Network
  2. The Fighter
  3. Inception
  4. 127 Hours
  5. Toy Story 3
  6. The King’s Speech
  7. Winter's Bone
  8. True Grit
  9. Black Swan
  10. The Kids Are All Right
Disagree? Leave it in the comments.

UPDATE: Just caught this great video from the How It Should Have Ended guys (check out their oeuvre at YouTube) and they should've run this for the Best Picture nom montage.
