I think that Stardust link is rather interesting. Ten points of bashing on a film that Gaiman actually worked on. It wasn't handed over to someone else and that was that (like the Dark Is Rising film). Gaiman had a hand in from the start...so really it's like a bashfest of Gaiman too since it is partly his movie vision.
