So, for those of you who've seen The Dark Knight:

a) great movie, or the greatest movie?
b) When the Joker sets up the Rachael/Harvey choice, does he purposely swtich the addresses? Did Batman think he was saving Rachael when he rocked up to the warehouse Harvey was in?

a) THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER IN THE WHOLE HISTORY OF MOVIES/LIFE/THE UNIVERSE
b) lmao yes grl, the Joker deliberately switched the addresses. I thought it was obvious..?

[nigeltde]

The addresses had numbers in them! I'm not good with numbers!

lol

well, I remember that the Joker said that Harvey Dent was at 250 something 20 , and that Rachel was at something Avenue something.

Then it gets clearer that he was just fucking with Batman's mind when he arrives at something Avenue something, and Harvey is all "NOOO SAVE HER" or something, and Batman's all "oh, shit".

The Dark Knight is srs bsns.

[nigeltde]

fucking yes! I think the last movie that was this srs bsns was Schindler's List.

a) GREATEST
b) yes :)

Poor Rachael. Bit harsh.

inorite! But you could see it coming, I just didn't think it would happen, like, halfway through the movie! I was so surprised by the structure of it, I thought they'd be leaving Dent's transformation for the end/sequel instead of getting it out of the way like that. Now who's gonna bet the villain for number three? Would Nolan really have the balls to do another Catwoman?

I thought that too! I thought he was giong to turn into Two Face right at the very and and leave it on a dramatic cliffhanger. I suppose his only motive was revenge over Rachael, and then he'd be kind of ... I don't know, would he still as ... well, evil? And I suppose it would have been a bit off to leave his revenge to a whole 'nother film.

People have been saying that nerdy little man whowanted to out Batman on tele? Was his name Mr. Reese? I odn't know, it's a complete long shot that someone probably just made up but they think it's Mr. Reese = Mysteries = Edward Nigma = the riddler. But surely Riddler is a bit similar to the Joker. I think there was more to it, but peple reckon he might turn into th Riddler. I'm not really too sure though, sounds a bit odd to me.

Hahah Catwoman! I never liked her for some reason.

Probably because I saw that awful Halle Berry film.

Yeah, that's what I thought! But instead, they got the Joker to take his mind! That was fucking awesome. I loved how they gave the Joker an instrumental role in the sheer insanity of Batverse villains. Normally I just ascribe that to Batman alone (and Gotham I guess).

Ha ha, that's an eagle ear someone's got! Doesn't sound right to me, though. Don't know much about The Riddler, but I don't know if he'd be an accountant. And they kinda reconciled Reese and Bruce at the end. However, I guess he does know who Batman is, so it could work as a plotline!

I always loved Catwoman. Okay, Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman. Rowr.
