Once a year, the LoveHKFilm.com Awards hands out their version of film awards. It's a much more democratic and probably less defensible practice than the individual "Top 10" list so many film bloggers and film websites hand out annually, the caveat being we have to hand them out so damn late because pushing everyone to vote takes so long. The trade-off is that the winners can be much more unexpected and/or entertaining.

Our full list of Awards, including special awards and other miscellaneous stuff, will be announced sometime in April. Unless the world ends.
