"A year ago, these...uh...cops and lawyers wouldn't dare cross any of you. I mean, what happened?!"

FANTASTIC!

Why so similar indeed.

I think I'm in the minority in this opinion, but I really hope Nolan recasts Joker for the next go. We, as fans, have waited so long for a good Joker (which Ledger appears to have delivered in spades), that it just seems kinda cheap to lose the character after one flick. As awesome as Two Face is, I think Batman and Joker don't seem right without one another. So I think that Nolan should hire one of the best impressionists in Hollywood, have the make-up guys go nuts until he looks like this film's Joker, and include him in the next film.

And like I was going to hold out for a better version...

I certainly hope his scene time matches and or eclipses Batman's. Because Batman is boring to me. He doesn't do anything except lock away crime and we all know how well that bit seems too work. He does that, and He prevent disasters. Disaster that more than likely would not happen if he wasn't around. Him being him, elevates the actions/repercussions of the criminals. His very existence upsets the nature of crime, Criminals have to up the game to keep him busy to get away with crime, that or they seek him out with all weapons and terroristic activities on go in hopes of destroying him. He has no life outside of his mission to fight crime, and he's such a lonesome prick. He doesn't have a real relationship with anyone outside of the paid help, and the real genuine friends he does have work with him as his otherself- the nutty Batman. I'm more in it for the villain.

Is this some cultural difference?, why applaud at celluloid?, if it was theatre I could understand it, but screaming and yelling at a cinema screen seems a little moronic, to me.

but hey, at least it's not iron man which showed all the movie already. i heard they are sending out free copies of the dvd befiore it's eve in theaters in order to drum up business for that movie. like it needs it, they need to chill.

although i do think that blonde actress who 'plays sal maroni's girlfriend' is secretly on the joker's payroll, if you know what i mean. she's not full on harley, but she's a mole.

(if you go to the imdb page for TDK itself) how curious. can't reveal the great ending that would be introducing dr. quinzell to her new patient.

You don't laugh because you know it's true. Batman is nearly gay again. At least Tim Burton's didn't walk around with trophy bitches "I'm so not gay" on his arm. Tim's Bruce made short work of Vicky Vale.

it can be interpreted two ways (two, gee, hmm, duality, twoface, etc)

taken literally as most of you have done, i could mean that people can keep trying to do good for so long, they get warped, cold, vengeful, punishing. there are lots of examples. government. religion, etc. there have been several examples of this in batman comics with batman himself, until a robin or some other foil snaps him out of the wrong path.

he could also mean getting villified by a fickle public, quick to judge and change allegiances like so much tabloid fodder- not neccessarily becoming a truely villainous person.

also, i am in agreement with the 'selling out' translation of what harvey said. i think it's a bit of all of that.

And the guy who runs our operation down there had he and his family held by gunpoint in their home before. Crazy.

I found out about the existance of the mighty Pumpkinhead 3 and Pumpkinhead 4 in Brazil

I have eyes, thats how the fuck can I tell that is two face.

but check his chin out, and his nose, and his top lip seems melted.

and the "my hero" thing that some assistant had to hand scribble onto

the frames.

to say it like harry - its a long teasing blowjob, you want the climax, but its building to a wonderful end.
