the dark knight
 
was fucking phenomenal. saw it in imax last night, and i have to say, it did not dissapoint, in fact i think it far surpassed its ton of hype. two words: heath ledger. wow, step away malcolm mcdowell, ledger's joker was a far more twisted and fucked up charachter than even alex from a clockwork orange. not to mention, the harvey dent twist was fucking fantastic (even though anyone who has ever been into comics saw it from the moment the guy said his name). im not going to spoil it for those who havnt seen it, but for those who have, they know what im talking about. i lvoe this movie. im seeing it again tonight

YOU DONT FUCK WITH A METHOD ACTOR

This Is Not Here 07.23.2008 09:21 AM

I've never any intention to even go near an actor, let alone a method actor...

ALIEN ANAL 07.23.2008 09:29 AM

especially a method actor that is:
son of sarah connor and kyle reese
escaped prisoner of war
legendary musician
crime fighting superhero/play boy
dragon fighter
serial killer
cow boy
JESUS
future law enforcer

no you fucking idiot. a method actor is an actor who refused to break chrachter throughout the duration of the filming, off scene, on scene, whatever. they do this to completley get a sense of how the charachter thinks, feels, acts, responds, etc.. it can be dangerous sometimes, and it takes a shitload of commitment. generally, the best actors are method actors. marlon brando arguably started it, others are deniro, daniel day lewis (he is super intense about it, and incidentially hes the best actor alive), and now guys like bale, and ledger (well, not anymore obviously).

anyways, i heard bale got arrested, buit he attacked his family? what the fuck. watchful protector my ass.

ALIEN ANAL 07.23.2008 10:03 AM

i already said what happend
and he didnt just get arrested
he walked into the cop station him self and then it all got sorted
it was just family feud

besides....its christian fucking bale. he can abuse who he wants

hai guyz!

did u here jocker dided?

I saw it last night as well. It was much better than I expected. The Joker completely stole the show.

It's an instant classic. It's really a shame that Heath Ledger's dead. His Joker ranks among the greatest film villains.

batreleaser 07.23.2008 10:58 AM

thats what i was saying dude, he seriously could be the greatest film psychopath of all time. i was absolutley stunned by javier bardem's anton chigurhh in no country for old men, but ledger's joker wipes the floor with that. this type of movie brings back the memories of why we pay 10 bucks to go see the movies in the first place, excitement, drama, surprise, fear, turmoil, chaos, brilliant cintematography, and spectacular performances. i was psyched for this movie since the end of batman begins (i have been a comic book geek my entire life) to the point where i was destined for a letdown. but ill tell ya, i drove 2 hrs from cape cor to natick, skipped out of my math class early, and paid 12 bucks to watch it on imax with my brother and friend, and i feel nothing but satisfaction. ill probably see it again tonight

ive never liked christopher nolan either, memento was ok but it felt like nolan did all the flasy backwards shit just to hide what was otherwise a poor story, and the prestige just bored me. but fuck can this guy make a superhero movie. batman begins and the dark knight are more than just super hero movies, their part comics, part godfather, part heat, part arthouse, part horror, all brilliant. im rambling, but i havnt been psyched on a mainstream film like this in a while. and the fact that its not the fastest grossing film of all time gives me great hope that perhaps the world isnt made of complete idiots. bra-fucking-vo.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.23.2008 11:00 AM

It was an amazing movie. Had so much more plot than I exspected. And Ledger did a great job, it didn't seem like him at all.
Why so Serious?

gmku 07.23.2008 11:01 AM

Nice that they could make such a fun little movie for everyone to enjoy.

I'm personally looking forward to Quantum of Solace.

Sheriff Rhys Chatham 07.23.2008 11:02 AM

That looks great as well.

gmku 07.23.2008 11:06 AM

Yeah, I've seen some preview clips already. Looks even darker than CR. Takes off where CR stopped, plot wise, and apparently Bond goes rogue in this one.

I love the new direction they're taking the whole Bond thing.

Batman was so fucking good. Like you all said, the joker stole the show. He actually made me smile.

gmku 07.23.2008 11:17 AM

Kids made fun of me for reading Batman comic books when I was a kid. I guess the joke's on them now, eh.

Wish I still had those comic books, though. They'd be worth a fortune.

LifeDistortion 07.23.2008 11:30 AM

The biggest thing that got to me after leaving the theatres was it totally fucks with your expectations. Again, won't go into detail, but things happen in that movie you don't expect, and before going into the theatre you expect to see certain things and you get something else. "The Dark Knight" was a total mindfuck, but that's the great thing about it.

krastian 07.23.2008 11:34 AM

I'm trying to drag some people to see it ASAP.....I don't want to be "that guy" sitting by myself in the theatre saying, "fucking right" every 10 minutes to nobody in particular.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 07.23.2008 11:37 AM

Batman has always been my favorite superhero mythology. I loved the Tim Burton movies when I was a kid, the cartoon, and the old TV show reruns.

It's just more interesting than Spiderman or Superman.
