The Dark Knight

[Jumper Bones]

One of the hidden benefits of seeing 'I am Legend' is the trailer for the new Batman flick, 'The Dark Knight', is among the previews seen...and the trailer was just released onto YouTube.

Looks GREAT! Can't even tell the Joker is Heath Ledger, if you ask me. Can't wait!

Nice!!

I'm a big fan of "Batman Begins", and I'm bordering on "overstoked" about this sequel.

New posters for The Dark Knight:



Yeah, I am getting excited about this one.

[Tippster]

Heath Ledger (the Joker) looks scary as shit.

Yes he does:


Sad that he isn't around anymore. I always thought he was a real solid actor, and from the previews, looks like he nailed the Joker.

Here is a opening 6 minute clip from the movie that only played in IMAX.

can't wait.

I am officially stoked. The level of admiration here http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_dark_knight/ is raising my hopes quite a bit.

The Pete Travers review in Rolling Stone got the Tippster stoke level turned to 11.

I didn't really care at all when Ledger died, but seeing how well he owns this role (at least in the previews) makes me a little sad he's gone.

Think I'll short myself on some sleep for work thursday/friday to catch the midnight premiere...

I saw The Dark Knight last night and have mixed feelings about it.

It truly is as good as all of the critics say it is. Every actor is bringing their A+ game to the table, and Ledger's Joker is truly oscar worthy.

The downside is that the movie is really dark. It's a comic book played absolutely straight. For an adult, that makes for an awesome movie. For a kid, not so much. An R rating wouldn't be a stretch.

Michael Bay takes a lot of heat for "Big Boom, No Substance." But in this case, I think The Dark Night could be more "Big Boom, Less Substance."

Another site had a good quote, "Iron Man was a comic book, The Dark Knight is a graphic novel."

The movie is great, but it definitely is not a family popcorn movie.

I actually am fired up that it is so dark and not a kid's movie.

Remember the batman with arnold, uma thurman, that guy who played robin, etc.....friggin hated that movie...it was just too...stupid or silly or whatever...

Stu did you feel that Batman Begins was a family-style movie? I thought that one was pretty dark as well which I thought would set the pace for this series of Batman movies.

Like short-bus special?

I have a friend (acquaintance?) from High School who has had a wildly successful run in Hollywood. Being the consummate brown-noser, I wrote him a short-note of congratulations. Got tickets to The Dark Night.

Moral of story = brown-nosing pays.

Same here. I hadn't seen Batman Begins til a couple nights ago. I liked it, Dark Knight should be even better.

I saw the first Bat Man movie and thought it was horrible and I haven't bothered watching any of the others since. I've never even seen any of the Spiderman films. But I'm gonna go see The Dark Knight. It looks rad.

The next movie should be Bat Man vs. American Psycho!

for those into such aspects of blockbuster films as the score, i interviewed TDK composing team of Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard:

I've long been a fan of both scoring composers, they are truly a dream team.

Batman Begins saved the Batman series. Movies like this give me hope for Hollywood.

You should go see Batman Begins - the first of this Batman interpretation. Great fun film.

I just got back from seeing it at an imax.
Go see it, worth the hype and a damn good movie.
