It's not really a surprise that Eric Roberts has signed to star in the horror sequel no one cares about (do they?) "The Human Centipede 3 (Final Sequence)."

Unofficially, the snub is seen as one of the major reasons the Academy expanded the field in the Best Picture category in 2009. But now that we have hindsight behind us, was "The Dark Knight" really one of the great movies of that year? Or just a supremely above average piece of popcorn entertainment? According to Eric Roberts, it's more than latter.
