This is a perfect example of the Academy stubbornly picking a small, controversial film while tripping over the box office elephant in the living room.

Did you know that Top Critics are only at 52% on The Reader? That's right. One of the Best Picture nominees is a coin flip recommendation. The Dark Knight has to go in before something like that or the system is broken.
