this was one of the most insanely good movies i have ever seen.  movies are meant to entertain and thought-provoke.  this movie made huge statments on society while blowing us away.  heath ledger's acting will go down in history as one of the greatest performances of all time.  i loved this movie.

I got home at 3am this morning from it. It was amazing. I was wide awake the whole time but not on the edge of my seat, it was late. Personally, if the movie was called "Joker" I think it would fit better. Sen. Pat Lahey's in it which is pretty dope.

at the end of the movie commishener gordan's son said to his dad that batman didnt do anything wrong and he was the good guy. Im pretty sure his son will become robin cause his dads a cop and he knows batman is good.

actually no.

robin is a circus performer. his family was killed by two-face and Bruce Wayne adopted him.

Batgirl is Commissioner Gordon's daughter.

but i fucking hope Robin doesn't show up, Batman is way better without him.

As long as Robin keeps his flamboyant ass out of it, I'm down with a sequel.

I don't know if anyone posted this or not, and i'm not trying to be an asshole or be morbid. Apparently 3 out of the 4 Jokers in the batman movies has died, and one is in a mental institution from playing the part, because it was so fucked up. Actually i don't know if this is true, it's just what my sister told me. Thought it was interesting.

I can't wait to see this, it looks so fucking sick.

i wikipedia-ed this to find out, and there have only been 3 batman movies featuring the joker, and sure two/thirds of them have died, but the guy who was in the first movie was the guy who was in the TV show and died at age 86. sure, heath ledger died afterwards, but the original guy died of old age and jack nicholson is still alive

honestly that is the BEST movie i have ever seen.  hands down.  a couple movies maybe have come close.  ive never seen anyone in recent movies get so into a roll like heath ledger did.  with all the rumors going around about how he killed himself because of him playing that i would beilive it.

but everything was good about it.  the plot was amazing.  the acting was brilliant.  the music fit the movie so well and was very very good too.  i cant think of anything they could have done better.

actually no, there were three robins. Four if you want to get technical but Stephanie Brown doesnt count in my book

the first Robin was a trapeze artist who's parents got killed when a mobster messed with their equipment. Adopted by Bruce and later became Nightwing

Second one was again a performer but this time instead of a mobster it was Killer Croc. Adopted by Bruce, he later got killed by the Joker

Third one was just a fan of batman and wanted to become his sidekick. He still has comics going on.


I was a huge batman fanboy and read a shit ton of comics

The Riddler is my guess as the next villian. it would make perfect sense, imo at least. who do you guys think will be next?

one of my favorite movies of all time. ending could have been better though, not quite as climatic as I would have liked. Still, the rest of the movie made up for it. Ledger was the best

it is easily the best movie ive ever seen
right now it has a 9.7 and is #1 on imdb, beating the godfather by quite a bit.

READ BELOW IF YOU HAVE SEEN THE MOVIE
IF NOT, DONT LOOK!!!!!! THERE ARE SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!
























SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SPOILERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think that two face is still alive.  the whole idea that batman does not kill people would fit it perfectly.  also, we never see a coffin at harvey's memorial/funeral.  futhermore, it was shown earlier in the movie that when batman dropped maroni from the same height it does not kill.  what do you guys think?

^yeah, i think you might be right, but then again you might not. it was really hard to tell whether or not he died, because they left the details out.

i think it might be that they left it to be interpreted by viewers or it may be that they leave it possible for him to be alive in case they want to bring him back if the nolan brothers write another batman film

guaranteed they'll make another one, but it makes it all the more sad to know that heath ledger is dead after his brilliant performance, nobody is ever going to live up to ledgers joker again.

adding robin will be the END of this series. It would be a horrible idea.

I think, for even thinking about the idea of robin being in the next movie, that you should get up from your chair right now and run full speed into the closest wall u can find. Like run as fast as you fucking can, if you wanna drop your head and run head first that would work too.

The only character that would even be able to come close to continuing this series would be the riddler, maybe with J Depp playing him. I can't think of anyone else crazy enough to 1 up ledgers performance. I am not even sure anyone would be able to bring justice to bringing the dark knight back for a third movie.

I am glad they decided to work the story into 1 movie after ledgers death. He was signed on for the third and the story extended with him in it, they toyed with the idea of continuing with two face, but it looks like that is not going to happen now.

I would not be upset if they just ended it there, if anyone is going to continue it, Nolan better be at the helm because he will do it justice.

AND OMFG are you serious with your fucking posts, chip and dales robin, DUMBEST SHIT EVER pls pls pls hurt yourself badly in some way.

originally they had it slated that he would be one of a few villans in the third movie. I can't find any info about it now though, which would lead me to believe that they are done with this series, or that they are keeping it very quite while nolan creates his next masterpiece.

I could def see johnny depp playing the riddler, that could be pretty sweet if they did it right, have some crazy plot twists and riddles/mind games. the dark knight was downright nasty though, if they made another one I would never expect it to top it
