You heard it here first folks, that is of course under the presumption you didn't hear his Radio 5 Live show this week!Kermode was nothing other than appallingly dismayed by the unfunny chick flick that contributed towards kicking off this months mediocre releases, namely Bride Wars. In comparison to the sheer brilliance of the releases this time last year he stated that if Bride Wars doesn't make his top ten worst films of the year by the end of 2009 then he quits!
Honestly I think he was being a bit over dramatic as usual. These amazing films that were released last January; No Country for Old Men, Juno and There Will Be Blood weren't exactly released this early. Plus with Milk, Slumdog Millionaire, Che, The Wrestler and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button all due out it can hardly be considered a bad month for film.
Personally I think he'll make sure that it'll make his end of year list after such a statement! After all who's going to turn down watching films for a living, no matter how bad they are!?!
