Just saw it...words cannot describe this movie but I'll give it a shot.

Just amazing. Heath Ledger is frightening as The Joker and I'm 100% certain that he'll get an award for the role. You guys just don't know..he DESERVES to get Best Actor for this movie. I've just never seen anything like it before. The plot is great. The suspense, the action, even the lil romance they put in it. All blend together so well. And its ridiculously scary at some parts. And the best part is that all the characters feel important. All of them have big roles and you feel for them. Especially Harvey Dent...just so sad. Anyways you MUST see this movie.

I think I'm gonna see it again.

Best Move of 2008 and that's saying a lot considering Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk were both Top Movies in my opinion this year. But The Dark Knight easily beats them out.

Heath Ledger did the damn thang, I was totally impressed with his performance and I hope he gets nominated for something. I didn't realize two-face was going to be in this movie, so that was a shock, but I really should of realized that since I used to watch batman the animated series and that was his real name Harvey, but its been years since I watched. :lol: I actually think they made a really smart move in not promoting other villians, because the batman series in the past has gotten out of hand with all these villians been thrown out there with no real direction. Christian was christian, but I'm glad he is going to be in the new terminator movie. Wasn't really impressed with Maggie G. as Rachel, as small as her role was K.H. should of just came back.

An was it just me or should in memory of Heath Ledger been put right after the movie ended instead of somewhere in between and then when it finally rolled it was for less than 5 seconds.

Now what can I say about this movie.

I loved it and all the hype about Heath Ledger's performance in this movie was worth it.

He should be nominated for the all the awards, The Golden Globe's, The BAFTA's, Screen Actors Guild and the Oscar's and he has a very good chance of winning them all as well.

IMHO Heath's joker was and is a lot better than Jack Nicholson's was.

ITA with EricaKane70 the "In Memory of Heath Ledger should have been right after the movie ended and before the credits started to roll. Not every one will stay to see it especially if you have a full bladder.

ETA - How could I get The Golden Globes and The Grammy's mixed up lol.

Heath Ledger's Joker and Jack Nicholson's Joker are incomparable.

This Joker was so dark and deeply psychological, where as the other one was pure comical camp. I was literally scared a couple of times when The Joker had a monolouge. Heath Ledger was just absolutely brilliant in this film as was every other major character. It all tied together very nicely. It just was amazing, simply put A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!

I saw it yesterday. Absolutely amazing!! I'm just in awe. Every single scene was important and I was glued to it. I had to pee so bad like half-way through but I held it the entire movie because there was NO part that I felt I could miss. All of the actors, especially Heath, were amazing. His Joker was just....AH! Perfect portrayal. And Two-Face was such a nice surprise. I can't help but wonder if he's actually dead...

    • I do agree that I wish there was more gay representation in terms of singles. I also had hoped we'd get a Black couple since it was a Black soap and I don't know that we've ever seen that on a US soap.  With that said, it's still early days so I can imagine we'll get that at some point. I am impressed they launched with as much LGBT representation considering how US soaps can be.
    • Thank you. I know we're all supposed to see that BTG is progressive when it comes to queer characters, but it's telling that they won't commit to showcasing gay or bi males who are single and looking. That relationship couldn't be any more traditional. Will we ever get a bedroom scene with Smitty and Martin? I have my doubts.
    • This is a pretty huge thing IMO, but I guess we will see what happens? Can't get any worse then already. 
    • This can be difficult for a soap to depict. So far she's only shown an interest in women. Will a man come into her life? If she commits to a male, there will be  backlash, but if it's women only, them where is the bi/queer aspect? Personally, I would have liked a single gay male on the show dealing with hook ups/relationships etc. Smitty/Martin married with kids is limiting in those terms.
    • Of course, how could I have forgotten those thrilling episodes depicting the fire? Also we had the GCAC rooftop set that came out every Summer. Moving on to Friday's episode. Victor is propped in his chair, answers his cell and tells the caller 'Let him in'. Seconds later Kyle enters. So does Victor have security on the front porch? It would have been better had Victor taken the call, and then said to himself 'Well Kyle, let's see what you have to say'and fade out. Next scene Kyle enters, indicating that the first call was from the Ranch entrance and time had passed . Nit picky but I get frustrated when they do stuff like that.

    • I don't think Chelsea has a true label just yet. She's just finding out she has an interest in women. I think the awkwardness is aligned with the character as we've seen. This is the fool who keeps filming her family when embarrassing things happen and live streaming it. I actually think it's refreshing she isn't just jumping into a relationship  and that they're playing the beats of her trying to figure out who she is.
    • Wow, do I agree with you. Chelsea is coming off as ridiculous. All she does is look for a woman to date while not caring about her business at all. That she's bi is great, but they're not writing her like she's bi. She seems to be lesbian. Yeah, I know -- "no labels." I just don't find the writing for her story to be anything other than awkward.   -- I hope we get some diagnosis finality with Bill's trip to the hospital. I don't want to see these trips to the ER every other day. -- Naomi is going to blame herself for Bill's health problems? GMAB. -- Ashley doesn't read as a real nurse in the slightest. -- Another day, another rinse and repeat conversation with Derek and Ashley. YAWN. -- Kat is making mistakes, but she's fun to watch and listen to, regardless. -- I still think the Joey/Vanessa/Doug gambling story sucks. I know Doug is deeply in debt, but I don't like him acting this meek and submissive.  -- I'm not sure what Joey's plan was from the beginning, or why he had to seduce Vanessa at all to get his way. I'm not sure what Vanessa ever saw in Joey -- why doesn't he give her the ick? -- I'm fine with a story where Doug and Vanessa take out Joey.  -- The fades to commercials were pretty bad today.
