Thread: The Dark Knight

  1. #31
    Sad. Child will grow up without her father. Let us not forget though, that we don't know when any of us will leave here. I doubt that he was planning on dying when he took the sleeping pills.

    I don't take sleeping aids as I don't want to become dependent on them to get my zzz's. When I can't sleep, I turn on the television and lay down on the sofa with the lights off.

    Eventually, the combination gets me relaxed so that even if I don't get more than three hours sleep at least I've rested.

    May I just say that, The Dark Knight sets a new standard for superheros movies.
    Scratch that, for ALL action/thriller movies.

    You'll enjoy it, the fighting is much better than the first, though still the same style of editing, but it didn't feel as "messy" as the first one was.

    Hopefully in this one I can actually see his arm move when he punches, rather than some cut sceney skippy stuff that makes it seem they forgot to hire a correographer...

    Best sequel ever. This is the Empire Strikes Back of superhero movies, and Ledger nails the Joker.

    A bit of over endulgence in the kali "defang the snake" principle.

    SPOILER ALERT

    I just got back from the theater and I was really disappointed. Good movie, but I had so many problems with it. Stupid ending (Batman wanting to be chased), they don't even spend a second trying to make us believe Gordon dies, so there's no effect when he comes back, and they can't get the voice right. First of all Bale's dark voice sounds incredibly stupid, but worse than that the director doesn't know what he's doing with the voice. The dark voice is his normal voice. He became mad at the world and became the dark knight. When he's around people who don't know he's Batman he uses the nice voice, which is fake. When he's around people who knows he's BAtman, he uses the dark voice, which is his normal voice. Now if the voice thign was my only problem with the movie, then I probably would have love it, but unfortunately the movie is riddled with holes. I liked the first movie A LOT more. Now I'm not even looking forward to the third. Am I the only one that noticed that Two-Face looks like the Terminator when it's skinless? Ugh. I will never go into a movie with high expectations ever again.
