"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse." But, er, that's not quite right.

Top 10s abound, but what the hell, its New Year's Eve and there are mere hours left (in the Western Hemisphere at least) to look back on the year while it's still here - Happy New Year Australia, N.Z., Japan and much of Asia.
[Related: Mash-Ups, 'Moonrise,' And 'Miami' Connections: Jen Yamato's Top 10 Movie Moments of 2012 and Amy Nicholson's / Top 10 of 2012 / Written In Haiku]
For those trolling the internet Monday and stumble on this list, I hope it'll spawn more Top 10s. Either in your own mind or better yet - in the comments below. Or even just give your Top 5 or hell? Just your one favorite. Or even your least favorite. Just go for it, don't be shy.
Below is my ten favorites for 2012. I admit, mine may be loaded with some of the "cold and corny prestige pics and all those 'respectable' 'films' headed for Oscar gold" as my fab colleague Jen Yamato describes - but there it is...
My favorite, Amour, was also the toughest to watch, but it just stayed with me through the rest of the year after having the privilege to see it for the first time in Cannes last May. I saw it again in December and it stayed with me as my favorite even if I was rather numb walking out of the theater. It is one helluva tough one, but so good. Disagree? Go for it and say why in the comments.
My top 10 follows with an ever so brief comment and a trailer (admittedly, there are still a couple of 'key' movies I still need to see). And what were your faves of 2012?
1. Amour - The toughest movie I,…

Katt Williams, aka the lesser Flava Flav, is back in the news and no, not for his stand-up comedy act. He was arrested yesterday morning for endangering his CHIRRUNS by decorating their home with guns and illegal drugs for the holiday season instead of boring ass wreaths and candy canes. How festive, why didn't I think of that? TMZ says the LAPD picked Katt up out of the litter box at his home in Woodland hills, threw him in a cold cell, and put his four kids in protective custody. They also say that "several items were seized from his home". On an unrelated note, the LAPD is throwing a rave tonight, don't miss it!
HUH. WHO. COULD. HAVE. GUESSED that this guy was doing illegal drugs?? I thought he just had a thing for flexing his Napoleon complex by slapping every ho (example 1, 2 and 3) who wouldn't slap back for absolutely no reason. You learn something new! Sweet, now I can take "Gacked Out Unstable Midgets With Anger Management Issues" for $100.00, Alex.
He's being held on $100,000.00 bond for (possible felony) child endangerment and since the IRS has also taped a lien on his forehead (his ass is too low to reach) for $4 million, I'm guessing he might be having a little trouble coming up with the cash. Little angry man, please.

Year on year, Hollywood's box office receipts rise. And while the 2012 numbers came in higher than 2011, the year marked a specifically good turn for the movie industry: the number of actual tickets sold went up for the first time in three years.
The year's big numbers come despite a generally slow summer blockbuster season.
The number of admissions have had a general decline for a decade, with the number of tickets sold flat lining in 2011 with 1.29 billion, which was the lowest number since 1995, according to A.P. Dollar amounts typically rise despite the decline of audiences numbers due to the rise in ticket prices. But for 2012, ticket sales rose 5.6 percent to 1.36 billion by December 31.
The number is still significantly below the peak of 1.6 billion sold in 2002. On the overall revenue side, the domestic box office should top out 6 percent ahead of the $10.2 billion figure last year and also top Hollywood's previous $10.6 billion record set in 2009.
Leading the list of box office hits was Disney's The Avengers with $623 million domestically ($1.5 billion worldwide) and Warner Bros.' third Batman installment The Dark Knight Rises with $448 million domestically ($1.1 billion worldwide). Lionsgate's The Hunger Games grossed over $408 million ($686.5 million) while Sony's James Bond pic Skyfall reached nearly $280 million as of Sunday (and will likely surpass $1 billion this week); The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 has a domestic total so far of nearly $282 million ($759.1 million worldwide); The Amazing Spider-Man topped out at just over $262 million in the U.S. ($752 million worldwide). Other big 2012 titles included Madagascar 3: Europe's Most Wanted ($216 million) and Ice Age: Continental Drift ($161 million).
And Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected…
