An Introduction...

The GEeK Awards are my own personal movie awards. While the Oscars and Golden Globes celebrate the films that were released over the past year, the GEeK awards celebrate the films I saw over the past calendar year.

The awards are broken into two categories- Genre and Overall. The Genre component recognize films falling into most of the major genre categories (comedy, drama, romance, thriller). The number of genre categories changes from year to year depending on the types and quantity of movies I watch. Any film earning a 3 out of 5 rating on my scale gets nominated for any of the major genres that the Internet Movie Database assigns it.

The Overall component includes five categories: Best Overall Film, Worst Overall Film, The Biggest Guilty Pleasure, The Best Written Review, and an award for the best film originally released the year I saw it.

For all award categories, the highest ranking film may not be the winner. I let subjectivity creep in to determine the winner.
