I DON'T CARE. Here's something that might shock you but THE DARK KNIGHT WOULD BE REALLY f*****g BORING WITHOUT HEATH LEDGER. CHRISTOPHER NOLAN IS s**t AT STORYTELLING. Ooh, sorry, am I thinking for myself? I'll try to be a braindead sheep in the future. I'll start listening to Radiohead, even though they're insincere and dull. I'll go around saying Citizen Kane is the greatest film ever made even though it's characters are dull and it's story completely uninteresting.

Just kidding, Merry Christmas, Allah be with you, It's fun to share etc.

The Dark Knight is amazing! it's almost amazing as listening to Radiohead's OK Computer album, whilst watching Citizen Kane with the sound off (Apparently they wrote that album to go with the film).

Can't believe no-one's brought down the satire sledgehammer and noted how Indiana Jones was one *big* mistake, etc...

My favourite movie mistake of the year was Baz Luhrman's belief that Australia was anything but chintzy rubbish.

Closely followed by Total Film's decision to put The Spirit on the cover twice, despite the fact that it was clearly a turkey of Popeye/Ishtar proportions.

also how about TF's constant coverage of Twilight and giving it 3 stars because it's 'so bad that it's actually funny'. I went to see it and they were right about it being unintentionally funny, but it's a 1, maybe 2, star film at best. I wonder who's been paying them to hype it up constantly? I'm losing faith in TF.
