There has probably been numerous threads relating to this one but whatever. i thought the movie was pretty darn good. alot of people love it and alot of people hate it. what did you think about it and what did you like most about it. *ahem, joker*cough*cough.
[QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"]A lot of people hate it? Since when? Do we really need another Dark Knight thread? With that said I think it is one of the best films of the year. well, some of my friends thought it was kind of lame-ish. if theres one thing we can all agree on, it's that without Heath Ledger, that movie wouldn't have been as good as it is now.

I saw it and didn't really like it. I just thought it was another batman movie with the same ole plot over and over. I dunno a lot of people i knew were blown away by it i dont really know why its so special.
Obviously... I loved the Joker the most, but I also loved the Bat Pod, the action, the theme of the movie, Harvey Dent, etc. The only things I really hated was what they did that Lamborghini, Bale's Batman voice and Maggie Gyllenhal.
Way over-hyped. It was a good film, but nowhere near as amazing as the hyperbole beforehand suggested. The Joker was also far less impressive than some people on here would have you think. He was good, but not Oscar-winning good. I still prefer the 1989 film, and Nicholson's Joker, to be honest.

Feel good moments, are your sure your watching the right movie?
Just off the top of my head, that lame ass seen on the boats...when the criminal threw the detonator into the ocean people in the theater literally stood up and cheered. Some were even reduced to tears of joy. It was sickeningly stupid.

The only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that Batman didn't have the guts to kill the Joker. In the 1989 Batman, he tries to kill the Joker at all costs, blowing up his factory, shooting him with machine guns and missiles, anything to bury him. In The Dark Knight he almost kills himself trying not to run over the Joker with his batpod.
Well, that and the fact that the actress who plays Racheal Dawes in The Dark Knight is UGLY.
Heath Ledger is easily the best Joker to date, however. If he doesn't win the Oscar there is something seriously wrong with whoever makes that decision.

Just because the boats didn't blow up doesn't mean it's a feel good moment. I think our definitions of a feel good moment are completely different..

No, YOUR definition is different, everyone else pretty much agrees...

Not really. I've heard a lot of people say that the film is "too dark". Sorry, but I never had a "feel good moment" when I was watching the film..

The beginning was slow, but the action really picked up toward the middle and ending. All in all, I thought it was pretty good. Maybe slightly overrated.

Hardly..Are you even reading anything people are posting or are you really this dense? I never said ALL movies. I said in really dark or action packed movies there is always some form of relief from it.

The Dark Knight was great and of course, Heath Ledger's performance was amazing. I just didnt like how in the movie Joker wears makeup. What happend to the vat of toxic which causes him to laugh uncontrollably!? Oh well. I liked how they involved Harvey Dent / Two Face, but hated that he died so quickly.
I thought it was good I guess, Im not a big superhero movie guy, but I do think its overrated, on the internet atleast. I also thought Nicholson played a much better joker than Ledger's.
I liked it, but I thought it was severely overhyped. I though Heath Ledger was alright, but not spectacular, and definitely not as good as Jack Nicholson. All in all, I was disappointed.

Yeah. Just wait until the movie Blood Meridian (based on a book by Cormac McCarthy) comes out. Compared to that book, The Dark Knight is a comedy.
Absolutely fantastic,except for the earthquake-camera during fights,Batman's voice,and why the hell does the Batmobile look like a rolling pile of rubble???
Obviously... I loved the Joker the most, but I also loved the Bat Pod, the action, the theme of the movie, Harvey Dent, etc. The only things I really hated was what they did that Lamborghini, Bale's Batman voice and Maggie Gyllenhal.JustPlainLucas
Well it's a Lamborghini, nothing special. :lol: And Bales Batman voice is the same as in Batman Begins. :P

I just wanted to inform you that it's not spelled "seen". It's "scene".
I'm going to have to agree with most in this thread when I say its one of the best movies I've ever seen. I'm not saying this becuase of the joker and how crazy the media got after his death but becuase it really has the attributes of a great movie. The story really captures each in it's own way and keeps all eyes focused on the screen for what will happen next at all points throughout the movie. Another great thing about this movie is that no matter how many times you've seen it, it's so entertaining that it's impossible to look away.
Give it a watch on blu ray. Makes a perfect movie even better.

Yep, got it on Blu-Ray myself. Was my first one too. :)
extemly overrated by my cousins but they have terrible taste in movies they love speed racer and they think every movie sequal is better than the origianal but I thought it was great.
The first three times I saw it, I loved it. After seeing it twice more, there's many glaring errors or things that could've been done better in my opinion,
