Iron Man himself Robert Downey Jnr. has dissed Christopher Nolan's Batman sequel The Dark Knight in a new interview.
The star of new movie Tropic Thunder told Moviehole (be warned - profanity ensues).
“My whole thing is that that I saw The Dark Knight.
I feel like I’m dumb because I feel like I don’t get how many things
that are so smart. It’s like a Ferrari engine of storytelling and
script writing and I’m like, ‘That’s not my idea of what I want to see
in a movie.’ I loved The Prestige but didn’t understand The Dark Knight.
Didn’t get it, still can’t tell you what happened in the movie, what
happened to the character and in the end they need him to be a bad guy.
I’m like, ‘I get it. This is so high brow and so fucking smart, I
clearly need a college education to understand this movie.’ You know
what? Fuck DC comics. That’s all I have to say and that’s where I’m
really coming from.”
Oh dear. He didn't like it then?
