    sure is. the blue ray vers is sick

  • MiKEOViC

    Blu-Ray rip is incredible, but I’m still going to buy retail. No reason to completely pirate this one, folks.

  • reacto

    Dark Knight sucked..how can you even watch that? too long and too choppy..could not understand what was going on, and i saw all the other movies..really disappointed

  • Norway FTW!

    Dark Knight – ok, i guess.. Won’t watch it again.
    Tropic Thunder – not funny
    Step Brothers – funny as hell!

  • xnatasx

    Dark Night was amazing at the IMAX cinema I saw it at!

    I have now downloaded some version, but doubt it will be as cool…

  • aquariumfish

    I think “The Dark Knight” was a good film, best batman film yet.

    WALL-E was good also

    Stop watching those hollywood turds !

    Are you happy to be such cinema illiterates ?

    Do you have no pride ?

  • Green Manalishi

    Dark Knight seemed a bit watered down to me, was kinda hoping for a bit more from the joker, will probably win best picture though as cinematography was great.

  • Fuckers

    The Dark Knight sucked.

  • bleh

    call me crazy but i didnt think the dark knight was all that awesome.. defenintly wouldn’t pay for it.. just kinda seemed like more hollywood crap.

    although the joker did make the movie.

  • ju

    loved the dark knight. im driving that bandwagon, fucking sick movie. seen it about 11 times lol. sumthing to chuck on when u cant sleep. wall-e is shite tho. but i guess it is a kids movie

  • umbraco

    A bit surprised that “Tropic Thunder” gets 2.place. The movies was that good. Not surpriced that the top 4 movies on the list are action and thrillers.

  • Tonny

    tropic thunder were the best film on the list do i think and the funniest!!! :)……:)

    number 1 to watch!

  • bbgti

    walle is the best!!!!

    Why is mininova still on maintenance about 60% of the time I request a page? It’s really annoying me.

  • bad flick

    full rubber freak sucks so hard – not even funny anymore – it doesnt even have anything to do with batman.
    Typical hollywood bastardization.

    “Dark Knight sucked..how can you even watch that? too long and too choppy..could not understand what was going on, and i saw all the other movies..really disappointed”

    Too long? It is kind of long, but it’s still great.

  • batfink

    Dark Knight was good, but not as good as I expected…but with that hype it was never going to. Saw in the cinema.

    Not as good as movie as Batman Begins IMO.

  • Paulb

    Traitor and Taken where pretty good.
    Chocolate should be in that list

  • Hammer

    Wow, How did I know Black Knight was going to be at the top of the list!

    Hey – so what was so disappointing about the movie? I am hoping to get to see it soon.

  • Maranda Miller

    I also did not find it as good.

    i no this is not about this subjest but i need help my hard drive nearly full i wont to put the films and song to disk and dvd but it wont play on my cd or dvd player what soft were do i need so it will copy to disk and play on any cd or dvd

  • Sheik

    Good to see that Stepbrothers is on there…its not actually worth paying to see.

  • Dave Taylor

    Glad to see I’m in good company on this one, the Dark Knight was 6/10 at best. I suppose if I was adolescent I would have appreciated it more (I guess it would suit 13/14 Y/O’s the most) but now I’m knocking on the door of 30 tastes have changed.

    the dark knight is the good ever movie ….the best….batman

  • zarathustra

    Agree with #20 (‘batfink’) – Batman Begins was better, but still enjoyed TDK. Anyone saying it suxed must have been watching the Uwe Boll remake… :P

    The trouble with the internets is that any time sombody sayd that they like something, there’ll _always_ be some wise-4rse that just _has_ to post something to the contrary…

    gaz 1984 nero is good but convert x is the best way to go…easiest program to use. may seem too simple, but when u play with it you won’t find better…

  • Anonymous

    what out for JASSON STATHAMS Transporter 3……. Its a surely blockbuster hit move over Batman maniacs!?!?

  • crash

    use nero vision for movies , very good

  • DaRk

    it’s missing most of the Uwe Bowl’s movie in there

  • AndyShitHot

    I wasn’t sure what would be on the list but I was certain The Dark Knight would be number 1 :)

    That was the most hyped movie of the last 5 years and didn’t dissapoint like so many do.

    You all suck dick batman was the best

    to “gaz 1984″:

    Buy yourself a cheap DIVX DVD player, do a search on play.com or something. £50 is a good cheap price.

    Then you can burn about 6 (or less) movies, as data files, onto a dvd and play them straight on the spangley new DVD player you just bought.

    Nice.

  • Lord Midas

    Oh, and The Dark Knight is a proper hardcore film. Awesome set pieces and performances. And there’s no such thing as a Too Long Film so long as it’s a good film. No one says the Lord of the Rings are TOO long do they?

  • Ali

    To those of you who like tropic thunder, are you for real!!!

    What’s in that movie worth watching? It is boredom manifested in a movie; I could not make myself laugh at any of its ridiculous scenes.

    IMO, I wasted about 2 hours of my life on that bullshit.

  • 6oo6

    Just an average hollywood flick (not excellent, not bad neither); but who cares (especially after all the hype and its die-hard fans out there)

  • Arnold

    The dark night is definitely the best!

  • Dark knight was great

    Hey, you have a great blog here!

    I found the movie Dark Knight one of the best. The best movie ever…. only sad that the real person (as the joker) has died in a accident (rest in peace)

    Keep up the goodwork!
