Dark Knight Movie Discussion *SPOILERS*

[Jeffrozup]

Since we have a thread talking about the generics of the movie that doesn't include spoilers, I thought it was appropriate to have one that could contain movie-related information for those who have seen it.

I thought it was incredible and loved how the plots kept twisting and turning. I thought at least three times that the movie was over and it just turned to another plot.

In regards to The Joker, I thought his introduction was fantastic. I don't mean in the bank but when he went to the crime mob's meeting and made the pencil "disappear". That showed off his dark, evil side along with adding some sadistic humor to the scene. THAT is what the Joker should have always been about - Evil, diabolical, maniacal and sadistically funny.

The Batman character didn't need to be the star of the film with the Joker, Two-Face and Rachel Dawes in the mix.

I also liked how they left it open for another movie without leaving the audience hanging without a fitting ending.

Your thoughs?

I WANT TO SEE THIS MOVIE SOOOOOO BADLY!!!...keep the spoilers coming

I loved it.

I think we could still see Two-Face in the future. Dent may be dead, but that doesn't mean Two-Face has to be. They didn't exactly say that Two-Face died, but just how nobody could know what Dent became. I would not be upset at all to have them throw him in Arkham and that's where his story continues.

sounds like a good twist to me BM

I thought it was a great film, I thought ledger nailed the Joker. I really thought the seen between the joker in batman in police station was the scene that made the performance. The gordon suprise was pretty cool too. I did think the way they ended it dragged on a bit though. Even though I love this movie I walked out kind of disappointed that we won't be seeing Heath Ledger as the joker again. It's the first time I ever thought any batman villain was portrayed well in a live action movie. I also think the film makers really got the character. The jokes were funny but kinda made ya sick for laughing at them. The burning fire truck was spot on, but I think me and the wife were the only 2 people in the theater who noticed it. GREAT THREAD!!!! Thnks for starting it

I'm sure that's what they'll do, put both Joker and Two-Face into Arkham, maybe they'll somehow bring someone out of Arkham to completely show how insane those people are. They said that they won't bring Penguin or Catwoman back, so it'll be nice to see what villians they decide on next. It sucks that Heath Ledger isn't around to reprise his role.

I was somewhat pleased to see that Rachel got killed off. I didn't like the fact that Maggie Gyllenhaal was Rachel Dawes.

The movie was great, at first i thought the movie was just going to abruptly end leaving a cliff hanger.. it got to almost the 2 hour mark and Batman didn't even face off with the Joker yet. I thought they were going to rush the film, but to my suprise they didn't.

When I was watching the movie, I knew that Gordon couldn't have died when he got shot. I realize these movies are slightly different from the comic books but Gordon would have never became commissioner if he died when we thought he did.

I just didn't know where he was going to come back or if at all during this particular movie but knew he wasn't dead.

Sadly everyone clapped when Rachel died lol she wasn't exactly good to look at facial-wise

I loved the movie but thought the sonar-vision was a tad over the top. I didn't care for the Bat-pod either, but it made much more sense once we saw how it deployed. Hopefully Morgan Freeman will get to work on a dedicated Bat-cycle next. ;)

Nitpicking aside, that movie kicked all sorts of tail. Heath Ledger was absolutely deliciously effed-up as the Joker.

And how cool was the trailer for the Watchmen? Very cool!
