The Dark Knight

I don't see a lot of movies, but I've always been a Batman fan and my friend thinks he IS Batman, so I saw it at the 12 o clock premiere. I have to say, I loved it. The acting dominated, especially Heath Ledger as the Joker. I've never seen a villian as believable and entertaining on screen as he was. I really enjoyed the script, too. Anyone else seen it or have any comments?

I also went and saw the midnight release of Batman. It was very good to say the lease, in fact, soo good that I went back and saw it at 8 pm later that day.

Heath Ledger deserves an Oscar for his acting as the Joker.

Very good movie, definately recommend seeing it.

The movie was insane, and I really dont think words can describe just how well Ledger did playing the Joker. I really like the way Two Face looked in the movie as well.

For Madden people the best way to explain it is that he has a very low awareness.

Let me know when you want to go Cash... It's been a while since a movie really blew me away... Looks like this one might.

I'm really looking forward to seeing this movie, I'm planning on seeing it when I get back from Scotland. I never really was a fan of comic books or superheroes, but the superhero movies have been lately (Hulk, Batman, Superman, X-Men), they are usually quite high up on my favourites.

posthumously, of course!!

I guess I will need to watch it as well, but I don't think they'll play it here in Iraq. I'll wait for the DVD

I am going to see it today. I was also just going to wait for DVD. The last movie I saw in a theater was Shrek 3 with my niece and nephew.

I have yet to hear a bad thing about this movie.
