In an interview with Moviehole.net, Robert Downey Jr. had this to say about "The Dark Knight":
"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 (expletive deleted) smart, I clearly need a college education to understand this movie.' You know what? (expletive deleted) DC comics. That's all I have to say and that's where I'm really coming from."
What do you think? Why so much hero on hero hate?
it's funny that Robert Downey Jr. said the Dark Knight is too sophisticated when he himself tends to sound so sophisticated
