Yeah, but he didn't make it at all believable. Plus in what sense was that the joker from the original batman? Heath Ledger just made some crazy character out of nothing. Where were the corny jokes? Where were the crazy inventions? I only saw a cynical man with bad makeup.
Harvey Dent, way better played. |
read the killing joke and then go back and rewrite that post |

BEWARE SPOILERS BELOW!
first let me start by saying, okay, the film wasnt "terrible" but it wasnt anywhere near what i expected. thus why i believe its garbage.
christian bale is the worst batman ever... he simply cannot ing act. he has no emotions as either batman or bruce wayne. hes just a statue. and why the is his voice so different whenever hes wearing the batsuit? i had the same issue during batman begins. utterly retarded.
secondly, i cannot believe they couldnt bring back katie holmes for this one. shes the worst actress in history and was absoulte in batman begins, but jesus maggie gyellhall or however the her last name is spelled is just as bad. i actually cheered when she ing died.
heath ledger while good was no where near the top of his game. i feel bad for him and his family cuz hes dead and all but just because he died doesnt mean he automatically deserves an oscar, which he'll probably get anyway. really all heath ledger did was change is speech pattern a little bit and have some weird look under the makeup. there was no range in his character at all. and yes people, there was supposed to be. there were moments he was supposed to more serious and other moments he was supposed to be more comical. ledger did a terrible job adjusting to those scenes. his character acted the same way in each one of the situations. and it really bugged me that EVERY SINGLE TIME he was on screen everyone in the audience was cracking up at that wasnt even funny. yes, when he first came on screen and said some , it was funny. but it wasnt funny EVERY SINGLE TIME. but i guess the general public views it differently. its more like "awwww, hes dead, lets make him out to be some ing hero." gimme a break.
moving on... while the two face story was done pretty well it took far too long to develop and then they just killed two face off at the end without barely any climatic buildup. poooooor poor job done by the producers of this film. the buildup took far too long for him to just fall from the building and then be dead.
the whole first hour of the movie was total garbage really. all character development for characters that dont need any. all those mob guys got so much screen time and background but then just died without it even being a big deal in 0.2 nanoseconds. complete waste of film to even shoot half those scenes imo.
morgan freeman quitting in the end? okay, yes makes some sense because he didnt like how batman was using the technology. fine. but the technology gets destroyed at the end so why the does morgan freeman still quit??????? thats what morgan freeman wanted, so he gets it, and then still quits! wtf?!
the accountant guy who figures out who batman is... WHAT THE WAS THE POINT OF THAT? yes the first scene where he tells morgan freeman about it, funny, yes. but then when he comes out again and then theres that action scene. totally pointless to even include the accountant in that. another waste of 15 minutes in the movie.
that sonar technology batman uses at the end... okay, sorry... TOTAL HORSE! yes it is possible to use a cell phone signal to locate where that person is in the world. but to be able to use it so that batman has 3d vision... BULL!!! and as soon as batman goes into the under construction building, WHY IS HE STILL USING THE TECHNOLOGY???? esp when hes fighting with the joker. theres a scene where a punch from the joker seems to come out of nowhere... batman sees the punch too late but is using the sonar technology... if the joker was hiding behind a ing wall, batman should of been able to see him using the technology... but even still he was fighting the joker hand to hand so there was no need for the technology. it obviously didnt help him!!! and even the whole time they are fighting how is this technology even working because no one is on the ing phone!!!!!!
more issues i have... they never showed the joker dying... i dont think they elaborated enough on what made two face actually go evil. i mean yea we all know why cuz stupid rachel dawes died but the whole movie didnt even show their love story really so why the sudden switch to evil??? gay gay gay.
too many scenes as well where shot too dark. yes i understand its happening at night but when i cant see where batmans punch is coming from its because its poor art direction. and i had a good seat in the theatre. middle of the screen in height just a little offcentered to the left. so it wasnt my view that let me not see . it was the ing movie.
oh and dont get me started on the fact that the batmobile gets shot with a bazooka or whatever and it doesnt work for crap but then all of a sudden the batbike works... HAHAHAHHAH... such garbage. also when batman almost runs the joker over with the batbike and then goes up a wall and immediatly comes to a complete stop. JESUS CHRIST, ON THIS PLANET THERE ARE THINGS CALLED PHYSICS AND THAT IS TOTAL BULL! sir isaac newton would be turning over in his grave if hed seen that .
i realize im taking a lot of these scenes too far... "its just a movie" esp a comic book movie... and all that crap. but when i find soooooooooooo many things wrong with a movie the first time i see it... thats when i say things like...
THE DARK KNIGHT SUCKED!
now please, if someone can please explain to me WHYYYYYYYYY the this movie was "good" and "amazing" and all that bull... id like to hear it. because as of now, all ive heard from everyone is "it was amazing and mindblowing" but not a single ing person can explain to me whyyyyyy. ive done my explaining... now lets hear some counter arguements.
overall, this movie was about as good as batman begins. not amazingly mind blowing nor absolute suckage... but just the fact that everyone is making this one out to be the best movie of the year (all because heath ledger died) is total bull. |

You didn't hear this from me folks.. but the next Batman movie will in fact have Penguin as the bad guy, though he will be darker and less comical than previous versions. He will be played by Philip Seymour Hoffman...you know, the bad guy from Mission Impossible 3 among other things..
I think it's a great choice. He will make an AWESOME Penguin.

Finally saw it. Aaron Eckhart was really good, and Heath Ledger was amazing imo.
Decent movie overall. |
