Got my IMAX ticket last night! Midnight sold out too quickly for me to get one, so I had to settle for 3AM. Oh well. Worth it.
And Two-Face finally makes an appearance .
damn, 3 AM! that's rough. I'd fall asleep.
And my brother is dressisng up as the Joker. Pics will come...
that is going to be so awesome
3am is awesome... I used to hit up 3am imax in manhattan all the time.
Go in at 3, come out at dawn... and the guys working the theater were lax as hell...
people would come in with like diner made pancakes and beer... it'd be a great time.
I loved it.

and this is why i want to live in ny... fuck london
oh, and it doesn't hit the uk until the 24th... should i watch the cam instead?
cams almost always suck. especially the audio
With nearly 25,000 votes on IMDb and a rating of 9.5, The Dark Knight has overtaken The Godfather as #1 on the Top 250.
Honestly, this feels almost right. I just need to set down and watch it again.

I watched a cam of it today. Was a really good cam actually, a little grainy but was to be expected. The sound was good, could hear everything they were saying and no audience noises.
I liked it, but I wouldn't say it was the greatest movie ever though.

2bros vob cam
the BDK cam was just released. audio's about the same as the 2bros but the videos overall better quality. actually looks good full screen.
going to see this tonight hopefully. very excited!!
heath ledger, not overrated... he did an amazing job.
it's a shame he's dead... would have loved to see more of him as joker.

seeing it tonight. i almost had to pay £14/$28 for tickets... found a place for £6/$12
yeah, pretty good film. plot was weaker than the first but joker was great.
not enough christian bale though!

weaker, really? i thought the 2nd one had way more twists and was much more entertaining than the first.
now that i'm reflecting on it i really did like the joker-batman relationship a lot.
but the plot was just simple conflict... joker does some crazy shit, batman saves all, joker does more crazy shit, without regard to $$ and with the intent of fucking up the general morality.
the whole two-face thing ended up being pretty cool. during the film i wasn't that impressed but the ending scene was very powerful.

oh, and there is a scene filmed at the battersea power station that i recognize because i did a tour of it last weekend (those pics to be flickrd soon...). i'll try to find a screencap to show you.

I thought the entire two-face plotline was unneccesary...especially since it felt like an afterthought; something to make the film longer and even MORE epic. But it was also so rushed it felt like shit went down too fast...I wanted to see more with him.
Epic-ness = bleh.
Favorite lines:
gangsta-dude - "You think you can just steal our money and get away with it??"
Joker - "Yeah."
Also the whole "magic trick" with the pencil. :-D

I though the Dent/Two-Face storyline was very much relevant. Admittedly he doesn't play the same role as he does in the comics, but that's fine. Two-Face isn't a villain in the movie, he's just an exclamation point on the whole story. The Joker turned the best man in Gotham into someone just like him. That was Two-Face's purpose.

I buy that. I guess since I actually recognized the name (even having not actually read any of the comics) I expected him to be a more noteworthy character.

He's usually more noteworthy, but before the 60s (IIRC) he was just another gimmick villain.
Personally, I like this a bit better than his recent comic counterpart. He went from being a villain/vigilante to a message.
