Gran Torino (2009) - Eastwood growls like its going out of fashion and echoes everyone's father whose father isn't a pussy. Great film.

Batman: Beneath The Red Hood (2010): proof positive that live-action isn't a necessity when making a great superhero movie for grown-ups. 

Under the red hood was an awesome comic book and the movie was just identical and great if you can try and watch batman year one thats a proper grown up cartoon!

I read the comic series Batman: Year One (if it's the same one as I'm thinking about) years ago. And have just reserved the film from Lovefilm (thanks for the recommendation).

When the cartoon adaptations are this good, it's a waste that they don't do more of them. The Killing Joke, Gotham By Gaslight, A Death in the Family and obviously The Dark Knight Returns would all make for incredible films. And considering they are currently teasing the TRAILER for the Dark Knight Rises there is definitely an appetite and market for all things Batman.

Bunraku (2010) - stylish, stylised, unexpected, impressive.

Kevin McKidd is outstanding in this film

Im a massive comic book fan and now with the reboot of dc comics its all good for Batman and the year one movie is frame for frame identical to the graphic novel I would like to see the Killing joke movie but I dont think the ending of it would work!

Just watched an oldie stepbrothers for the first time fooking Hilarious I'd highly recommend.

"50 / 50" - great film but if you're a dad and (as a result) emotionally crippled, you'll end up crying. Comedy/Drama about a young guy who gets a rare form of cancer.
