Australian film critic Richard Leonard, S.J., reflects on the popularity of "The Dark Knight," "Wall-E" and other fantasy films from 2008.

Father Leonard is the director of the Australian Catholic Office for Film and Broadcasting. Read the groups's review of "Australia" [2] and other films [3] from 2008.
