Batman-The Dark Knight

Saw it last night and LOVED IT!!!!!!

Especially:

1) I got sooooo excited when Harvey's face went in the gasoline and his face burned because I knew he'd become Two-Face!!!

I announced it to my man and he was like "who is Two-Face and how do you know what's about to happen?" I know because all comic book fans should've known.

I've always looooved Two-Face. However, the story behind Two-Face is different in the comics.

2) Ledger did a great Joker. He took Jack Nicholson's Joker to another level. Funny, yet crazy as hell.

3) I need to see Two-Face in the next movie. I would also like to see either Scarecrow or Ventriloquist.

What I didn't like:

1) I hate Christian Bale in the role. Okay as Bruce Wayne but nothing special.
2) I hate the raspy lisp they gave Batman (I could see he was trying hard to talk that way because I could see his tongue and his teeth when he talked)

For those of you who didn't like the speeches. They are a big part of comic book sagas like Batman. There's a story to be told and a moral story, as well. Only Batman's speech annoyed me and that's just because of his fake raspy lisp.

I didn't like the last movie and I want to see him more than briefly.

He can.

That's why I want him in the next movie. Scarecrow and ventriloquist are just an aside.

I'm sorry....I just don't see Eckhart carrying a whole movie...and with ____ dead...it kind of skews part of his whole reason for wanting revenge...that was one aspect that kept 2 Face from teetering completely over the edge was that his human side of him still wanted to be with his family

____ being dead feeds his need for revenge. He feels like "the good guys" failed him and he is disenchanted with the system.

He doesn't have to be the only villain, of course. It will be just like some of the comics and cartoons where each villain was doing his own thing to get at Batman. Even having villain meetings.

Love it.

Did you see Thank You for Smoking? Eckhart can carry a movie, but I don't know about this type of movie. Anyway, he wouldn't be carrying it alone - Christian Bale would be back, presumably.
