This year, 11 films made the grade.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" style=\"margin: 10px;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.regularguycolumn.com\/brian.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"263\" height=\"425\" \/>I take my film watching seriously. By that, I mean I want to have fun and laugh when I go to the theater. You almost never see any overlap between these awards and the gold statues passed out in Hollywood, but that\u2019s what makes it so special.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span>With those niceties out of the way, the envelopes please:<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>Best Supporting Actress: Keri Russell, \u201cBedtime Stories.\u201d<\/strong> I had a lot of trouble picking this one and considered giving it to no one as I did in 2006. Jamie Pressley did a good job in \u201cI Love You, Man\u201d and I liked some of the female performances in \u201cCouples Retreat,\u201d but Russell is cute (a key factor in this category) and fit perfectly in this charming movie.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>Best Supporting Actor: Zack Galifianakis, \u201cThe Hangover.\u201d<\/strong> This will go down with Sean Penn\u2019s portrayal of Jeff Spicoli as one of the greatest casting and acting achievements of all time. Everything he did made the movie funnier. I can\u2019t remember a secondary character single-handedly taking over a movie in so long.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>Best Actress: Amy Adams, \u201cNight at the Museum: <\/strong><strong>Battle<\/strong><strong> of the Smithsonian.\u201d<\/strong> Adams wins for the second year in a row. She brought just enough spunk to the character of Amelia Ehrhart to make us believe that the famous pilot may have actually looked that good in that costume.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>Best Actor: Paul Rudd, \u201cI Love You, Man.\u201d<\/strong> A two-time winner for Best Supporting Actor, Rudd narrowly edged out co-star Jason Segal. He now ties Will Ferell with three overall awards in the history of The Brians. He did it all by pretty much playing exactly who we think he really is. He\u2019s just that funny.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>The Bridget: \u201cBedtime Stories.\u201d<\/strong> This award goes to a movie aimed at kids which I went to see with my daughter. We saw this inventive Adam Sandler film very early in 2009, but nothing else I saw in the kid\u2019s realm knocked it down a peg. Not even the second Night at the Museum movie, which was cute, but predictable. Sandler managed to take the simplicity of his usual comedy and nuance it enough to fit the younger audience.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span><strong>Best Picture: \u201cThe Hangover.\u201d<\/strong> A friend called this award as soon as he heard I saw it. I pretty much knew at the same time that something tremendous would have to happen for this not to win. \u201cI Love You, Man\u201d was a very, very funny movie, but \u201cThe Hangover\u201d simply put me in a totally different place. I haven\u2019t enjoyed a movie from beginning to end this much since 203\u2019s winner \u201cOld School,\u201d also a product of director Todd Phillips. I haven\u2019t seen this one a second (or third or twentieth) time like I have the Will Ferrell classic, so I wonder how it will hold up.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span> <\/span>Anything with Mike Tyson can\u2019t go out of style though, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that the pesky business of The Oscars has concluded, we can get down to the real awards: The Brians.
