Maybe it's because I'm Brown but...

Slumdog Millionaire is the best movie of 2008, without question, hands down, everybody shut up you're all wrong and I'm right. Nothing even comes close. The Dark Knight is a joke, a stinking snooze-fest, a waste of time and money and light and noise, an exercise in putrid profligacy. Heath Ledger, while not completely inept in the movie, over-acted and underperformed. Flitting around the screen hysterically is not acting. Just because the poor guy died of an Olsen-twin-related overdose doesn't mean he should automatically be given the most prestigious award in the business. Then we come to Christian Bale. I've seen lamp posts with more acting skill. And his voice as Batman! The whole movie, I just wanted to reach through the screen and hand the guy a lozenge.

All in all, with the exception of Slumdog, there really weren't any movies released in 2008 that I know of. Remember 2007, when we had There Will Be Blood and No Country for Old Men? Thanks, 2008, for reminding me once again what a stanky little whore you were.

I think that this was in the original screenplay, but Michael Caine didn't want to put his hands in another man's mouth.

Sinister: Well, couldn't he have thrown it in or something? Maybe make a little sling shot to toss cough drops in Bale's mouth. Hollywood's got enough money.
