Last year, superheroes rescued more than a billion dollars from rapt moviegoers. Arrow-shooting heroines and sword-toting Hobbits both came up with Part 2’s. Americans hustled, princesses sang, minions grumbled, cars roared and starships warped. And to sum all that up, this Thursday the entertainment industry will laud the films it considers the very best of the year—unveiling nominations for the upcoming March 2nd Oscars telecast.
And so, like last year, Plugged In has decided to crash the party and dole out our own awards. These awards, though, are a bit more important than the Oscars … because they’re all about you, not just about the stars and directors and big studios.
Naturally, the awards are for you. These movies represent what we consider to be the best of the bunch that got released in 2013, and not just artistically speaking, but morally and content-wise too. They’re not stamps of approval, of course. No movie is perfect, so please, please read our reviews carefully before deciding to see anything that we’ve listed here.
Our categories are as follows: Best Movie for Kids, Best Movie for Teens, Best Movie for Adults and Best Christian Movie.
But the awards are also by you. Today through Friday we’ll be unveiling our nominations. Then we want to hear from you about which of our picks you think is the best in each category—using your own family’s moviegoing criteria. You can voice your thoughts and vote both here on the blog and on our Facebook page. Then, when we announce our winners right around the middle of February (right here on our blog), we’ll also announce your winners.
