The people in the ticketing office, the entry ticket stubs collector, concession stand people, and the ushers, all of them know me by my first name now...

But truth be told, all 3 films watched till now were magnificent...

And RIP, Heath Ledger...A true talent you were...
Heath Ledger?

Yea but PLEEEESE spare us the 'posthumous Oscar' crap, members of The Academy.........

My mate (who works in a movie production studio) actually reckons Bale is better than Ledger in that movie - not as spectaular, but more subtle, and somehow curiously moving (I haven't seen it - can't comment).

OK, so I won't tell people what a great talent you had when the grim reaper does his part of the deal with you...

I saw Batman and thought Ledger was brilliant and I think this is a great oportunity for the Oscars committe to give superheroes movies some recognition by giving Ledger an Oscar. I honestly would love to see Johny Depp in the next Batman movie as the Joker it would be really interesting.
I didn't see Love Guru but after I heard the reviews here I don't think I'd go.
I saw the Mummy and it was a meh not that great and the dialouge was so predictable. I say don't waste your time and go watch Batman again.

Dark Knight certainly lived up to the hype IMHO. Funnily enough I found The Joker character quite likeable. The guy getting half his face burned off was the only gory bit where young kids are concerned, especially as he appears in that condition for nearly an hour. Michael Cain was excellent as usual. A good plot and fine acting keeps you entertained for 2 1/2 hours.

Squashed Hallow'een Cake



That's what I thought of when I saw a clip of Mickey Rourke
at Venice Awards this morning.Yeeuuuuuuuuuuch!!
I thinking will anyone actually pay money to watch his new movie????


I wasted '88minutes' watching Al Pacino-whom I luv- in this utter
nonsense. Why did he make that piece of tripe???
Wearing Ella Fitzgerald's hair too!!!!!!
Mi da!!!!
