Batman-The Dark Knight

My b/f made me watch "Batman Begins" before went to see the "Dark Knight". That movie was very good...and with hearing all the reviews coming out that were just over the moon for "Dark Knight", it definitely peaked my expectations!

This movie was just simply.....AMAZING!!!! Christian Bale does look very, very good in this film! Heath Ledger, RIP, was a very gifted actor! His portrayal of the joker will be very, very difficult to top!

I think not only does Heath need to get that nomination, but I think the make-up does too for the Joker and Harvey Dent!

Yes, especially for Harvey Dent. I'll have to watch the movie again just to enjoy the ride. Couple time I had to go to the bathroom, but just couldn't. I did not want to miss a single scene.

I just had an idea, what about Daniel Day Lewis as the Ridler?

Or Johnny Depp? I can see him showing up in a Batman movie!

I saw it last night, and of course LOVED it! Honestly, it is mostly likely one of the better movies I have seen in a long time. Dark Knight and Batmen Begins have been extremely successful in moving Batman to reality instead of some imaginary world, as was often projected in the other movies. I was flipping the channels and Batman Forever, and Batman and Robin where on, and it was so extremely fake it made me sick compared to the newer movies!

I really liked the fact that Chicago was used in the filming!

On another note, why did Sen. Patrick Leahy have a cameo? It was really bugging me....

He's a longtime fan of the Batman comics, and he and his son had cameos in Batman and Robin. His goal for this movie was to get a speaking role. (I'm a Congressional reporter and did a short piece on it)
