If having a blog was outlawed, then all outlaws would be bloggers. a fallacy?

BOLLOCKS! ANOTHER MOVIE FOR KIDS WITH MONGOLOID ATTENTION SPANS///

i'm sorry heath, you tried to save that film, but not even you could.

my god a merchant/ivory costume-drama tea-sipper trumps this in every department.

Worst editing ive ever seen. ever. cut like a 15 second car commercial spot. fucking ironic as shit film. oh wow we get it. Sometimes we provoke people. and if you love someone and they die, you can always blame someone. then try to kill that person. BUT WAIT, theres a kicker. they probably love someone too.... oh damn. so let the ''unwilling hero'' (but thats clearly not true) take the fall 'because he can take it.' Throw in poor heath ledger, the most fickle fictional city populace ever caught on film (youll see what i mean, if you havent already), an endless stream of explosions, and harvey dent's own game theory and weve got us a blockbuster with some underage philosophical context. Newton Howard and Zimmer drew up a score that sounded as the new yorker said: 'At times, the movie sounds like two excited mattresses making love in an echo chamber.' Sorry chris nolan, your endless 2.5 hours of climax arent going to get me horny.

Watch Run Lola Run from a few years back if you want to enjoy 2 hours of an endless climax and to actually get something out of it in the end.


tim burton and jack nicholson win. and i dont like either of them.... maggie gylenhaal looks like, as i read in one blog, 'a sad cartoon turtle.' and she does, mind.

oh well. life without utter, utter disappointment (in 'superficial' departments) would lose any sense of perspective. which unfortunately (minus my 'superficial' superficial qualifier), is perhaps a theme nolan tried to convey. but its lost in oh so many things.
