We saw this last night, and it was STILL selling out 3 screens in the biggest theatre downtown. I didn't care too much to see this, but enjoyed it. I didn't like Maggie Gyllenhall in it; she came off as too....I dunno....sultry, coy, seductive? Glad the character is dead. It's a shame they killed off two-face right away. I think it could have set up a couple more sequels. Batman's technologies were my favorite part. He gave new meaning to BADASS. I was conflicted about the Heath Ledger stuff. Sad that he's gone. Creepy that the company is profiting off the hype surrounding his death. I didn't want to watch him for that reason. It was also sad that he did "crazy" SOOOO well, for my enjoyment, and as a result, he needed to medicate himself and suffer the consequences. It's amazing what some actors do for parts. Look at Tom Hanks and how he changed weight so quickly for Castaway. So dangerous to themselves. Anyways, Ledger was pretty good. I love him in the nurse's outfit, and how he was walking away from the hospital. Some of his lines were pretty funny. Saw a preview for a movie called Watchmen or Watchman that looks pretty sweet.

DH and I loved it. The nurse costume was great. When the Joker was wearing the red wig, I thought he was kind of pretty!?!?!?! GO I want to see it again, I was very distracted watching the background - having recently moved my home and my job from Chicago "proper", to the 'Burbs, I really enjoyed seeing Downtown as almost another (minor)character. The way Chris Nolan shot a lot of those flying/falling scenes honestly upset my stomach at times. Loved it!

We saw this last night in Imax and it was amazing!!!! The FX was incredible on the Imax screen and we sat pretty close so it was very impressive. Loved the nurse's uniform bit! I thought Heath was very good because he brought such a darkness to the Joker that previous actors had not. But there were so many good actors in the movie I could see several of them getting award noms.

At www.rottentomatoes.com there's a thread with pics of Christian Bale and Kermit the Frog that may interest someone here. It's in the general discussion area.

Seen this twice in the movie theater. I absolutely love this movie. It is so spectacular and exciting and amazing. Heath's performance was wonderful. I have only absolutely praise for method actors...I for one...could have not pulled off that character. The first time I saw the movie...I tired to picture Heath...and I couldn't. Excellent movie. If Heath is nominated I hope it is for more than the fact that he died. I do hope it gets nominated for best movie tho...
