Not sure if Im going to see it this weekend, heard its a mad house.

One theater in NY shut down all other movies to play The Dark Knight on all of their screens to accomodate everyone waiting in line.

Get this, yesterday afternoon the 12 o'clock hour it racked in 18.5 million. The first hour! This will definitley surpass Ironman for the opening weekend.

EDIT: 18.5 mil in the United States alone!

haha duuude. jack *nicholson's* joker was a completely different type of character. dead or not it was pretty dope.

if we're gonna go back in time, tommy lee jones was a much better two face than this new guy...


*edit* don't get me wrong, i agree his death definitely sparked a bit of over-zealous acclaim, but he did play the role very well.

Just got back from watching The Dark Knight and comparing the two roles with todays standards, you have to admit Ledger's Joker was way more sinister and fit the role way better.

I liked the movie so much, I want to see it again next weekend AND whenever the hell they decide to play it at the Sacramento IMAX...

A bit long though, one thing I forgot to do that forced me to use old training... and this WILL help some people who are not aware... use the bathroom before hand. You have no idea how many times I had to use lower ab muscles to expand and make extra room for my bladder... I felt like Austin Powers after getting defrosted. =(

Damn camel! jk LOL

Yeah, some of the theaters in my city are still showing only this movie. The theater I went to just reduced it down to four screens, none-the-less, a great movie. Jam packed theater and the damn place shuts off the AC right when previews start! Man was that a sweat hole! Got up and the back of my shirt peeled off me and the seat like double sided tape.

I really like the Joker character as well. Best movie I've seen in a really long time.
