I have tickets for the 8:10 show tomorrow night. I am ridiculously fired up. I have been studiously avoiding spoilers and trailers, so anyone who violates that will earn my everlasting enmity, which will include me trying to give you crotch cancer solely with the power of my mind. It hasn't worked yet that I know of, but you really don't want to be the one in my sights when it happens.

First screening in Norway is 25th and after the last Batman, you know this one is going to be so full of win. Better cast, better setting and darker overall, wish I could see it tomorrow  |

25th of November? You know, it wouldn't even be surprising if it was 25th of November. Wall-E is coming 27th of August.  |

IMAX are a tough ticket around here, plus the $20 in gas it would cost round trip. If I would have planned better I would have still bit the bullet and seen it there, however.

Any chance you could edit the title to include something like "Direct all spoilers here" or something so that those of us who have another week to go can browse other threads without having the plot ruined?

I think it is safe to assume that there will be spoilers after tomorrow night.

I know, this was just a puny attempt at damage control. I guess I could try and avoid the internet for a week, I wonder what life without constant internet is like? |

WHY. SO. SERIOUS?
I haven't looked forward to seeing a movie this much in a very long time.

That was my plan, until my girlfriend informed me that we have tickets for tonight at 12:00. Considering the movie runs 2:32 minutes not counting previews, tomorrow is going to be a very blery-eyed day. |

Ok Spoiler free review (and very brief to keep it that way.) Just got home from the midnight show...
Excellent flick. Not as good as is being touted in a lot of the reviews I've read, but excellent none the less. The Oscar calls for Ledger are legitimate. He absolutely steals every scene he is in.
And this was the major problem for me. Didn't seem to have enough of the Joker in the flick.
8.5 / 10

I think Nolan was (rightly) afraid of remaking Burton's cheesy little abortion, since that basically just turned into the Jack Nicholson show. A little Joker goes a long way; don't overplay your villain. |

You'd think by watching the trailers on TV that the Joker was in every scene. Also, I couldn't and watch a film for 2 1/2 hours. Just couldn't do it. I need breaks. Another reason I never go to the cinema, other than the smell and horrible people.

I am by no means a devotee of Watchmen, but even I had a nice little geekgasm after seeing that trailer. When a director has love and respect for the source material, it shows. |

I also would give it about a 8.5, dragged on a little bit. Heath was fucking fantastic. He stole that movie. Really stole it. They should have called it The Joker like was rumored months ago. I also think he should get an Oscar.

You and I have very similar opinions on both film and people. |

I'm going to make this pen, disappear...... I laughed. Other great visual joke in the film: a fire engine... on fire I feel sorry for Christian Bale - he's Batman, but he gets pushed off-screen by the rest of the cast. Maggie G. was a good replacement for Holmes, Aaron Eckhart is just fantastic, Eric Roberts et al - it was all good. Perhaps a bit drawn out, but it was truly a crime film, not a comic book film. |
