The Great Transfer - The Dark Knight

I hardly covered myself in glory yesterday, as far as writing is concerned. I just wasted the day away, stumbling.

Yes, I appreciate the irony of complaining about Stumble on my Stumble blog.

It was only after watching The Dark Knight that I was able to get some writing done, and even that was partially out of shame. I did manage to get a thousand words done, though, and it is started so, hey. I shouldn't complain.

Whilst we skirt the topic of The Dark Knight... FUCK ME, that film was awesome. I use that word with absolute sincerity, not as some kind of drunken frat boy. I was completely in awe; of Heath, of the Nolan brothers and of the bravery of everyone involved in making such a dark, disturbing and wonderful film.

I don't want to gush about it, there are about a million different pages on Stumble to do that for me, but I was seriously impressed and amazed.

Another thing which amazed me about the film was the rating it got! It was rated as a 12A, only suitable for twelve year olds if they are accompanied by an adult, and I think it was seriously skirting the edge of what a 12A can be. The death toll was prolific, there were scenes which glamorized knife violence and as for what happened to Harvey... well, it was all dangerously unsuitable for children.

I can see why they wanted to get a 12A rating, considering how much they're wanting families to watch the film, but I'd say that this film is a classic example of Family Unfriendly Violence.

Anyway, todays forecast calls for twelve hours of waiting in for a delivery. I think it's ridiculous that the delivery timescales I've been given are 7am-7pm. 7AM TO 7PM! I couldn't believe that when I read it and still can't! It's insane.

Sufficed to say, I don't think I'll be ordering from Tesco again.
