    John Horn of the Los Angeles Times, Michael Schneider of Variety and Kim Masters discuss the big show business stories for 2010. From Conan to Simon Cowell, 3D bonanzas, to executive shuffles it's been a year of transition. They break down the Late Night wars, the success of the NFL on TV and the failure of movie stars to bring in big box office. And they look at the value of 3D and wonder if the studios will reconsider the value of original storytelling like that in Inception.

    Watch this mesmerizing montage of 2010 films:
