2011 Film Junk Readers Choice Award Winners

Alright, folks… the votes have been cast and the results have been tallied. It’s time to find out what you guys thought were the best movies of 2011! We nominated five movies in a number of different categories (while attempting to keep each category relatively balanced) and then we turned it over to you. We ended up with a few tight battles (ie. Best Action Movie, Best Foreign Film) and a few other categories that weren’t even close (Best Animated Film, Best Thriller). Either way, it’s always fun to find out just how in sync we are with the tastes of our readers. So without any further ado, check out the full results of the 2011 Film Junk Readers Choice Awards after the jump.
