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...

    • Daniel Cosgrove is PERFECT as the sleezy politician. This might be my favorite role of his. All of these people keeping Kristina’s secret is so annoying. I really want her to pay.
    • What did happen to Beth between 86 and 89? Did she have amnesia?
    • I actually thought he came off as younger. It's so hard to buy Martin as Nicole and Ted's son unless they had him when they were 12.
    • @chrisml Isn't remarkable that, on a soap whose brand is built on twists and mysteries, that Raven's last straw was as simple as Logan saying that she was incapable of loving Jamey.  In the episode when Raven exit's and leaves Jamey with April, I can remember feeling the subtext that Raven is also trying to talk herself into leaving him behind.  There's so much in that little scene.  She's trying to stick it to Logan for saying she was a bad mother.  She's both granting April's wish, and damning her with the old adage of being careful what she wished for.  And, she's hinting to Draper that she's going to boff his father. It remains my favorite scene, and it still blows my mind that was not the end of that episode.  
    • Oh lord not Drew just figured out it was both Nina and Portia that set him up. Willow WILL never leave this man. Ric taking the case purely just to spite Sonny is [!@#$%^&*].ing hilarious.
    • And in addition to Patti being de-aged, she was no longer a nurse, divorced from Len(fair enough) and her two children were not seen and barely mentioned. So basically she was a totally new character. For newer viewers it didn't matter but any loyal viewers would have been wondering about all the changes with Patti. Sarah Whiting always puzzled me. The writers finally decide to acknowledge Jo's family and do so by making up a never mentioned adopted teen. Why not just bring in Tracey, Jo's actual grandaughter? As for Liza, perhaps it would have been wise to rest the character when Sherry left. They were big shoes to fill and her Liza was so identified with Travis. I don't recall what was going on in the story at that time but if they knew Sherry was leaving, write it so Liza would leave town to care for an ailing Janet and take a breather with the character for a few months.
    • Ahh interesting. Yeah, that's sad for A-M. I will say, he and Nick became fast friends when Susan started working at Spaulding. A-M/Lucy/Nick/Susan had a lot of double dates in those 7 months. A-M was Nick's best man at his wedding to Susan, which now that I think about it, is odd that he wouldn't have considered Fletcher. I remember those two were so close at the paper, and even living together with Ben. Once Tangie left SF, Nick left the paper, and Fletcher/Holly were rarely seen... so I guess they felt that friendship wasn't shown often enough anymore (which again, lazy writing).
    • I honestly don't think Alan-Michael ever really had a friend on the show. Maybe Cameron or Samantha, but otherwise... *Cameron was a high school friend who ended up dating teenage Dinah after she broke up with A-M. Samantha is Phillip's biological sister, who A-M treated like a sister. Interestingly enough, they were born the same week on the show in 1981, but A-M ends up being older than her when she returns to town in '89.
    • I thought he was very cute too, and a likeable presence even though on paper Cliff was a prick. I wonder if he was well-liked by viewers or someone at the show as there's a point in these episodes where he could have been written out and was not.
    • I'm not a Derek fan at all (and not even all that much of an Ashley fan, but man has she become awful in their relationship--like she's not even trying.  But also I admit, I don't think I'd ever live with someone, even someone I was married to (I know they're not married) in a bachelor apartment unless I had to.  Even just a one bedroom would make a big difference.  I'd probably end up hiding in the bathroom a lot
