"The Dark Knight" 2008 !!!!!!!!!

Nothing's wrong with NYC. I just think the NYC critics are mad because TDK is a chicago movie opening and generally there's a competition between the two cities.


That's exactly why I am upset. All three of the douchebags are the same way. One of them favored Iron Man over Hanock, I mean WTF?!?!!:emperor That just tells you how valid their opinions really are.

Iron Man is the better movie. A WAY WAY better movie.

Iron Man is the better movie. A WAY WAY better movie.

Yeah, I think that was a mistake. He meant the other way around (at least I hope he did).

 

[CelticPredator]

I hope so....

 

[UTtoyfan]

I hope so....

Me too, for his sake.

I guess/hope so.

Fixed my mistake. Meant the other way around.

Yeah, I think that was a mistake. He meant the other way around (at least I hope he did).

Yeah, no one in their right mind would rank Hanock over IM>

I hope so....

My apologies, good sirs.

 

[UTtoyfan]

Hehe, we know what you meant. Regretfully, that critic has no credibility whatsoever and so it negates the Dark Knight review. Oh, and we need batman smileys!!!

s'all good.



However, there ARE people who LOVE Hancock....and yet hate Iron Man....so.

I concur on the bat smilies idea

Saw it.

Loved it.

Very, very, very good but not quite "great". It IS flawed and I actually agree with many reviews that it's probably 20-30 minutes too long a feels a tad bloated overall. Some elements should have been trimmed, especially since others feel like they aren't given quite enough time.

It's hard for me to rate and rank something like this... something so anticipated and so hyped... immediately after the first viewing, but if pressed I'd have to put it up there with IRON MAN. Definitely one of the 2 best flicks this Summer and probably in the Top 5 superhero movies, period. It's just not the Second Coming. But it's close enough. It's better than BEGINS, and I liked that one a lot.

Anyway, I'm also a bit dazed right now. To be perfectly honest something happened today (a conversation I had) and a thread in the film mirrored it almost exactly. And that knocked me on my ass, especially due to the emotional weight and density of the movie.

I'm in a very brooding place right now.

Okay, but be warned... I'm not in a very chipper mood right now.

 

[The Mike]

That just means you'll be more honest.

On a serious note, I'm sorry to hear things are going rough for you buddy, hopefully its temporary and over quickly.

 

[IrishJedi]

Thanks, dude. It'll all work out one way or another. Just one of those things that forces you to unexpectedly take stock at your lot in life.

 

[UTtoyfan]

Thanks for letting us know how it was, Irish. I hope you feel better too.

Very, very, very good but not quite "great".

Damn only one "very" away from being great. lol

 

[IrishJedi]

Damn only one "very" away from being great. lol

That might be pretty accurate, actually.

 

[wofford29]

That might be pretty accurate, actually.

Seeing as I live in Atlanta as well, how were you so lucky as to get an early viewing? And why as a fellow freak was I not invited?

 

[IrishJedi]

Sorry, dude. I was just lucky to be the +1 on a pass my journalist friend had.
