President Obama Loved Anne Hathaway's Performance In THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

President Obama Loved Anne Hathaway's Performance In THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

The debate surrounding The Dark Knight Rises is still going strong at CBM and it seems that the POTUS wants to join in the discussion. So what exactly did the President of the United States have to say about the film?

Said President Obama on the film and Anne Hathaway's performance, “She’s spectacular. I got a chance to see Batman, and she was the best thing in it. That’s just my personal opinion.”

Ha, even the President of the United States knows to end that sentence carefully, less he spark a series of angry rebuttals from internet trolls. This quote from the POTUS came at a fundraising dinner that was hosted by Anne Hathaway among others so maybe he was speaking his mind or maybe he was just being nice. Although, he didn't say he liked the film, only that she was 'the best thing in it.' GOP constituents could have a field day dissecting that statement.

It's being reported that out of the entire TDKR cast, Hathaway may have the best chance for an Oscar nomination.

No one gives a shit about what Obama, and his opinion on a Batman movie. Maybe he should be worried about running a country, I wonder why our economy sucks.

Hathaway did surprise me with her performance, mostly because she sucks in everything else, but she does not deserve an Oscar.

@Markjulian-pretty sure the downward spiral started under Clinton with the bursting of the .Com bubble but go ahead and have at your revisionist history and play fast and loose with those pesky facts.

I think Michael Caine deserves an Oscar nomination. That was intense!

Hathaway was absolutely wonderful as Selina/Catwoman, she IS the character!! Loved her role in the film.

I must be the only person that thinks Tom Hardy should get a Oscar!

@Jollem- maybe so but relativly not by much. Also concider Bush and Reagan spent their vacations at their respective ranches which were more like second offices while Obama spends our tax payer money on extravagant trips for his extended family ( entourage ) at astronomical costs.

@blackandyellow-and thank god he didnt because Obamas promises are America's demise. At least Clinton had a Republican House to keep him centered. Obama had a wide open opportunity. I say we dodged a bullet for the most part.
