Chantilly is sold out til the 22nd and its the only one in the area playing it.
 
 How important is it? Considering a movie of this magnitude and especially that it was shot IN Imax film, I'd say it'd be a good experience. Im gonna catch it next weekend.

Saw the movie last night and my feelings are as follows: Awesome movie. Really liked it. Was a bit too long and the script could have been retooled to cut out the whole dragged out Two Face stuff at the end. Bale was very sterile and didn't bring that same brooding, tortured hero mystique that he had in Batman Begins. Also Bale's Batman voice gets old and annoying real quick. Ledger was perfect as Joker. He was probably the best comic-book movie villain of all time, but his performance was NOT as ground-breaking amazing as some have tried to make it out. Hell it wasn't even as good as last years performance by Javier Bardem in No Country For Old Men (a much more convincing and scary movie villain in my opinion). Overall Dark Knight was very entertaining, albeit too long. I'll give it a B+ in general as a film, but an A- as a comic based movie.

Whatever happened to Robin?

Fucking Chris O'Donnell was Robin.  There is no topping that one.  He was in the movie that featured Uma as Poison Ivy and The Governator as Mr. Freeze (hurting performance).

[Frank Gallagher]

Who was fucking Chris O'Donnell?

[sweetcell]

his boyfriend?

Who would be batman....right?

yeah, what the hell!  i've been anxious to see this all week, and it was seriously sold out in every theatre in new york city all weekend.  i was hoping to see it on the imax but it looks like i am going to end up seeing it in the middle of the day when no one is around on a normal screen.  i can't wait anymore!  i just watched batman begins a third time the other day in anticipation for this.  christian bale's batman voice is also definitely the funniest thing ever...i giggle every time.  but it's still a sweet movie.

I saw this in IMAX and OMGWTFBBQ awesome. Even just the shots of the city were that much more amazing in IMAX.
 
 Seriously, amazing amazing amazing.
