I wanna see this movie so bad, but I don't know if you can beat Jack Nicholson as the Joker?
Watching the original one with Michael Keaton right now, that one is a classic. |

HAHAHA urban_legend my friend talk to us after you see the Dark Knight - arguing that Nicholson was the better Joker is like arguing that the sun isn't going to be rising in the morning. Ledger OWNED that role. Nicholson's Joker can't even be compared to Ledger's Joker, Ledger took the Joker to a completely different level went up a couple more levels looked down at Nicholson's Joker and pissed on him.
See the movie then talk to us.
No doubt Batman from 1989 was a classic though - doesn't compare though to this rebooted series...the reboot is just a trillion billion times better imho (and most everyone else's) |

Saw it in IMAX tonight at Collosus, friggin busy and had to wait an hour before getting in, but wow!!! what a presentation, totally sets film to a new level.
89 Batman will always be a classic to me, no matter what. Dark Knight was in a class of its own though. First 10 mins are so great, it just starts off so cold, but so well too. Bale was great as Bruce Wayne but agreed his dialogue as Batman was kinda weak. When he did the action, it was great. Aaron Eckhart as Dent was great...I would say more but I won't, just heads down and very insane path.
Heath...damnit...thank you for doing this! you made every frame with you watchable, just proves you were going to be one of the great ones. Someone of our age bracket to be one of the best remembered actors for his talents. I am a bit mixed up with emotion with it right now, but he definately was amazing. Purely psychotic the things he did, a truly great actor that will be missed. You went out on top.
Overall a great movie, all shows at the theater for 6 theaters, including the IMAX all sold out. Midnight showings set a new record, 18 mill, beating out Revenge of the sith for best midnight screenings. Can't wait to get the weekend figures on Sunday afternoon. |

And that's an understatement. Nicholson got nothing on Ledger for this role. Even when you hear Joker talk with that tongue smacking and his eyes, it's enough to creep you. |

| I had never seen anything like this, an opening night for the ages. People all clapped at the end of the movie. 3rd time ever I have been in that type of audience. Also everyone waited for Heath's name to appear. |
