Christopher Snowdon

@Courtwatch_Olly If that’s a Yorkshire Ripper reference, well played

🎶Thank you for being a friend, travelled down the road and back again🎶

@JohnHundeslit He is the sole redeeming feature

@cjsnowdon It's a little overwrought in places but Heath Ledger saves it.

Watching The Dark Knight for the first time in 18 years. People were going crazy about it when it came out, but it’s still a POS. Christopher Nolan is such a charlatan.

When adverts for cigarettes were banned, some people said that it would lead to cranks banning adverts for anything they dislike. Fortunately that “slippery slope” theory has been shown to be utterly fallacious. 👍

@TobiasByfield Why are you threatened by diversity, Tobias?

This is actually unbelievable. Here, Zia Yusuf (Reform's 'Shadow Home Secretary') is effectively *threatening* voters by saying they will place migrant detention centres in their constituencies if they don't vote in a Reform MP or a Reform Council. This is absolutely disgusting.

@ZiaYusufUK But muh law!

Important new Reform policy:

@JohnHundeslit Face it, it’s atrocious

@cjsnowdon No, no, no, no, no.

@jamieellison29 It’s total garbage

@cjsnowdon Yeah I just watched it as well. Don’t think it’s terrible but bloody hell is it overrated.

@pope2023 @JamesLear99 @GuffyNicola I’ll never know because Inception was the limit for me. This was my review of that.

@cjsnowdon @JamesLear99 @GuffyNicola Tenet was worse than Inception. Also, Nolan is proud of making sure we can't understand the dialogue. He said so. Thinks he's clever.

@JJPACheshire Come back to me in another 18 years

@cjsnowdon 1) the idea of that film being 18 years old is disturbing 2) The Dark Night is Great 3) Batman Begins is trash 4) The Dark Night Rises beats Dark Night on plot, cinematography, visual enjoyment But you can’t come for Heath without blowback

@GuffyNicola Don’t get me started on the Craig Bond films. Very much from the same stable of prentensious idiot fodder

Agree. Part of the problem is the reboot. The motive for the anger driving the protagonist is best left to the imagination of the viewer. This is why I think the Bond reboot should start in 1959 with an English violent sexual predator with nice suits and ambiguous loyalties. Will they listen? No. Thanks Tony Blair.

@HarrisonChase6 Non-economists have very poor opinions on films imo

@cjsnowdon This after what you said about The Godfather! You maybe one of the world's greatest living economists but your film tastes are just wrong.

@SmoggyPower I’ll have to take your word for it. I bow to your expertise, obsession, and possible sexually attraction to flags. 👍

@cjsnowdon It's actually the Austrian flag. But nobody actually gives a shit, apart from you.

There’s no way you’re putting a statue up in central London without some assistance from the authorities.

@JamesLear99 @GuffyNicola Haven’t seen it. Haven’t seen anything he’s done since he made the worst film of all time, Inception

@cjsnowdon @GuffyNicola 'Insomnia' is his only good film, simply cos it's just a straightforward thriller with no nonsense. Also, Pacino is refreshingly restrained in it.

@pope2023 You haven’t even mentioned Inception

@cjsnowdon Don't get me started on this. People I previously thought are intelligent have been seriously downgraded by me over their worship of Interstellar, Tenet, the Batman guff, and worst of all Oppenheimer. Good job I never paid money to watch his films.

@pope2023 He has done more than anyone to ruin cinema

@cjsnowdon Jesus suffering Christ. I couldn't agree more. I refuse to watch any of his new films as the previous films are pretentious puke Saw a clip of The Odyssey. He uses the same old 3rd rate actors Big budget doesn't mean quality when it comes to Nolan and his silly IMAX experience

@GuffyNicola His best (only half decent) film is Memento but even that is soiled by everything he has done since

@cjsnowdon I know what you mean but this seems harsh. DK is his best film but only because someone else plotted it. Also Michael Caine made me cry. Slightly.

@AaronBastani The country isn’t united. Never has been.

Great tactic, poor strategy. Reform are essentially saying ‘we don’t want to unite the country’.

@RobinShipston I’m not incorrect, you illiterate NPC

@cjsnowdon You’re incorrect, but dodging the issue is noted.

If it takes donations from companies who fix potholes for politicians to fix potholes, I’m all in favour of it.

@mrianleslie It’s a gentleman’s game

In snooker, why is it the norm to keep going even after you’ve put a frame out of reach? Wouldn’t it be more efficient for players and audience to end it there and move on? (Unless a 147 is on)
