48hfp Genre Shake-Up

They did it again! I just read the official "genre" post on the 48hfp website and they have eliminated 3 of the 2009 genres and put 3 new ones in. They also created a refreshed Wild Card Genre List. Lord help us!

The 3 eliminated genre are: Detective/Cop, Holiday Film, and Superhero. In their place, in the main genre list are: Film Noir, Road Movie, Silent Film.

So the official MAIN genre list for 2010 is:
