The Top 10 Films of 2007

This is not a double post, but instead, it's a compilation. C.D. NIlsson has worked very hard on creating these lists based on five components. He decided all the categories (other than best film) based on nominations and wins for not a specific person or category, but instead on the film, say acting by actresses, as a whole. These nominations and wins are conceived from the four major film awards (Academy Awards, Golden Globe Awards, BAFTA Awards, and Nilsson Awards). He then used these as point systems and generated points here, and then added in the factor of the most nominations (and wins) for films as best pictures. So without further ado, here is the lists of 2007, in order of importance (somewhat):
