I knew The Dark Knight would be #1. I saw that coming from a thousand miles away!

Yeah, The Dark Knight was of course number 1, so far, no movies have been able to overtake it. I mean, it has broken multiple records and all that jazz.

I'm a bit surprised that Wall-E made $223 million. To be honest, I didn't much care for it. To say the least, I found it boring. Seriously, I kept looking at my watch, wondering when it would be over. It annoyed me that the same song ("Put On Your Sunday Clothes", I believe) was played over and over again. Now I can't get that d**n song outta my head. But what annoyed me the most was that Disney/Pixar ripped off James Cameron. Honestly, the tilting spaceship with the people sliding reminded me way too much of Titanic.

Yeah, The Dark Knight totally kicked ass (brilliant acting, by the way, from Heath Ledger), but no film will ever be able to surpass Titanic. However, many people claim that the only reason this film did so well was because of Leonardo Di Caprio fangirls, but the same could be said about The Dark Knight. Some people claim that the only reason the film did so well was because of Heath Ledger's death.

To me, Wall-E was okay, but it bothers me how people go 'awwwww' and obsess over it. As for Dark Night, that movie was... simply amazing <3
