Castor Awards 2009

I've managed to watch a big number of films of 2009 and I'm ready to make my own awards nominations for some categories. I hope you can help me by voting which are your favorite for each category on a comment!
By the way, the name "Castor Awards" was just because I thought the word Castor sounds like Oscar. "Castor" means beaver in Spanish.
