The Dark Knight

Being that Batman Begins is one of my favorite movies ever, i'm reasonably excited about the sequel. I could get on board with "re-imagining" older series if they could get them to be as awesome as this.

By all accounts Heath Ledger will be a fantastic Joker, as shown by the many pictures and interviews.

When you can make Michael Caine forget his lines because you're so creepy, I think you've got it.

Anyone else looking forward to this? If not, I can't be your friend anymore

I did like Batman Begins, tho I still prefer the Tim Burton version of Batman more (first movie only... the rest went from meh to bleh)

A friend of mine was called in as an extra playing a cop in the movie - I can't wait to see if I can find him when it comes out!

YES.

I mean, look at the cast list:
  • Christian Bale - One of the best actors around, IMO
  • Michael Caine
  • Heath Ledger
  • Maggie Gyllenhaal
  • Gary Oldman - Genius
  • Morgan Freeman - Fan of this guy ever since Shawshank
  • Anthony Michael Hall - ZOMGWTFBBQ! Where's this guy been?

Getting Maggie Gyllenhaal to play Rachel Dawes was a great desision. I'm so glad that Smirky McSmirkerson didn't sign on for this one, she was a plank of wood the entire time. Luckily she was only really in it for 20 minutes total, so I can tune out/focus on Christian Bale.

I haven't been following the viral advertising for it since, honestly, i'm not smart enough to figure out what the hell they're talking about half the time.

I'm pretty sure this means the trailer is coming up on Sunday, though.

I'm really looking forward to this one, as anything with the Joker in it is automatically awesome as far as I'm concerned.

So long as it isn't Batman & Robin-levels of awful.

Wow. I had no desire to see this until I saw the cast list. What a great assembly.

From the looks of that trailer, Heath is pulling out a very Crow-esque joker.

ok, i saw batman last night and i must admit that the newmetal joker image worked well.
in fact, the movie should have been called 'the joker', cos he owned the entire film.
