Default [MOVIE] The Dark Knight (aka best superhero movie ever?)

Heath Ledger is amazing, I can understand why he died (if his death is really related to the role of Joker)
Jack Nicholson's Joker is just a crazy bastard (but still my favorite villain in superhero movie history...before the release of Dark Knight) but Heath Ledger's is crazy+serious mental disorder+genius, he always got a plan, a plan after another plan. I love the twists in the movie, not those which can compared with twist like Fight Club, but as a superhero movie, these are A+ twists.

I should listen to Jeff, if I skip all those trailers, 6 mins preview, the Dark Knight will be even better.









*****Spoiler*****


I never expect Two-Face gonna die in this movie, I supposed he will be the major villain in the next film. However his death really bring out the theme.
And about the ferry bomb, I don't like the ending which no one press the button. If I told the story, the white-collar eventually press the button but this is the plan of Joker, the button actually trigger the citizens' ferry.

After I saw the movie on Tuesday, my friends said the same thing.

They wouldn't have done the same type of twist twice in the movie, they already did that with Dent / Rachel, so why would they do the same thing with the ferry? I'm glad it ended like that.

My boss says that "Keith Ledger" is really good as "The Choker".

WOW.

that's about all I can say other than fucking amazing zomg.

I can really see why people are considering this an oscar worthy roll, even if Heath was still here.

this entire post is a spoiler:

Two-Face isn't dead
The movie was amazing, I loved the scene when they really first introduce you to the joker and he does the whole "Wanna see a magic trick?". Two face should have been brought into the movie either earlier or at the same time but draw out the character more. I liked the ending but it wasn't that great of a way to end it, with Batman becoming a villain but it was similar to the first ending with the whole "I'm Sorry" "you don't have to say that" dialogue bit. Overall it was a good movie. I hated how people cheered for Heath when his name came up in the credits, like they were his best friends.

frickin' epic.

I'm going back to see the IMAX version as soon as a ticket becomes available.

Ledger did an amazing job, as did everyone else. The movie was enjoyable and an absolute thrill ride. Can't wait to see it again.. can't wait for the next iteration.
