I really want this movie to be good, shit every talkbacker may as well be called Dark Knight Fan #1. I don't know what TB'ers are going to go after this movie comes out? Because every time a movie came out someone didn't want to see, or there mom wouldn't give them $7.50 to see a movie ($10 if you live in NY or Cali) they would always chant I'll wait for Dark Knight. Well what will people be waiting for next?

Nordling - you took the words right out of my mouth.

What kind of person doesn't like Heat? Probably the same type of person who kicks a bag a squirrels down the street.

can't

wait

for

this!

HA HA HA HA HA!!!

So, grab your clipboards, boys! And get prepared to check off those hater talking points!

The theater staff are all wearing those bank robber clown masks. Random other employees are made up in he Joker paint. Even the fats kids, big red painted mouths and black eyes, bumping chests while holding pencils. Then show the Joker-ized trailer. Then the film. "Then everyone just loses their minds!" /jokervoice

I think it is becoming cool to bash Burton's Batman. I will not say it was perfect, but it is a lot better than the kids these days make it out to be.

That being said, BB was 2/3 greatness and I fully expect TDK to be the best of the three. (No I am not forgetting Returns or the "other" "Batman" movies" though I would like to)

"Is 2-face really supposed to be gone at the end?" "Is there any truth to 2-Face being gone at the end?"

Though I do like your thoughts about Bane and some of the other characters.

way to blow the possessive apostrophe twice in one befuddled sentence. what are they TEACHING kids these days?

Three weeks and counting.

I think that there are so few villains in Gotham Knight my previous guesstimation is not really worth much. I still hope Riddler is in Nolan's part 3 though.

That leads me to the next thing. If you guys remember the article "Warner was so pleased with The Dark Knight that they hope Chris returns for a third one". I think Chris had always intended/envisioned a trilogy (only) - even though he takes it one step at a time, so that seems automatic.

Toss in that quote from Bale way back when he said that the way TDK ends, "it would be great if they got to do a third one".

Everyone will love TDK but .. and this gonna become personal opinion a bit, but . once Nolan continues the comics film tradition of the second film (the part 2 of a trilogy) becoming the best... how exactly will he develop that.. well... often terrible part 3. Don't get me wrong, I have like 200% trust in Nolan to show the damn globe how you do a part 3. But still, pondering over how he might approach it is intriguing.

(saw this elsewhere and liked it!)

DC might be trying to get a group film going to simply garner interest in those DC characters in order to justify unique films based on the characters included. And go from there. (Green Lantern, The Flash, Wonder Woman)

Not EVERY character can be adapted successfully. Wonder Woman has got to be the most difficult one in my mind. So many, many reasons why.

Still, I am starting to get a bit more excited about this new Batman shenanigans. The Heat comparison is very intriguing. Also, it's got Aaron Eckhart in it, and I like that guy. He played one of the great movie pricks in In The Company Of Men, I reckon.

Give in to The Dark Knight! Let it rule your soul!

Long live The Dark Knight!

And Memories, could you be a bigger cunt. Not content with telling everyone what they should think regarding movies, you've now gone on to tell people what and how they should parent. Despite the fact (and this is something we should all thank the lord for) that you haven't spawned yourself.

Having said that- any British parent out there- DON'T TAKE YOUR CHILDREN TO THIS. Because I'm selfish and might be in the cinema at the same time. I'll let you know when you can.
