you are all wrong. In broges or Gran Torino. for shiiiiz

For me it was Wall-E and Dark Knight... completely different types of film, but both stood head and shoulders above the competition.

It is a great movie. Danny Boyle has been a favorite of mine since I saw Shallow Grave, since then he's gone on to make three masterpieces(Trainspotting,28 Days Later and Millions), a near perfect film(Sunshine) a guilty pleasure(The Beach) and a total miss(A Life Less Ordinary). Slumdog Millionaire comes out of nowhere and it could very well be his best film and one of the best films of the decade

Am I the only one who thought The Dark Knight was overrated??? SPOIILERS!!!

Yeah, it's a great action film, but the plot had a zillion holes in it, and there wasn't enough time for real character development, particularly for Harvey Dent. They should have ended the movie with him becoming Two-Face and saved him to be a great villain for the next one! Instead they gave him a lame 15 minutes before he gets kacked. And in the most stupid of ways. What a waste of a formidable foe (and a decent actor in Aaron Eckhart). And what the hell was Scarecrow even IN this film for? There was zero point in his even being in the movie, for all of 2 minutes.

Plus I didn't buy for even a second that ANYONE would ever work for the Joker, knowing full well that he kills everyone who works for him, and he never would have pulled off what he did without a ton of minions. Took me right out of the suspension of disbelief that is the mark of a truly great film. This movie paled in comparison to the quality and cohesiveness of Batman Begins (with the exception of the Joker.. he was badass. Oh, and course Katie Holmes' replacement with Maggie Gyllenhall - good call there).

I certainly agree with most of your points on The Dark Knight. While I didn't hate it, I certainly wasn't knocked out of my seats like many people seemed to be.

I don't know why Hollywood has this obsession with having superheroes fight two different villains. Instead of being able to focus on one, they have to clutter things up with multiple opponents (Spider-Man 2, Spider-Man 3, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, etc.). I agree that Two-Face would've been a great villain to have featured in the next movie. A much better choice than the Riddler, in my opinion.

The only thing I would disagree with was Katie Holmes being replaced by Maggie Gyllenhall. While Maggie (I hate typing her last name) is a much better actress, I thought she looked downright haggard in the film. Then again, her character wasn't really called on to do much of anything besides getting blown to pieces. I'd actually love to see one of these movies where the filmmakers don't insist on forcing in the romantic interest. Who the hell cares about such things in a superhero movie, anyway (unless, of course, it's central to the plot, such as the relationship between Peter and Mary Jane)?
