Who is going to see The Dark Knight the instant it comes out and do you have high expectations for it ? Great than Batman Begins?

Sorry, OP, as suddenly there were a ton of Dark Knight threads, I'm going through and locking a bunch of them to reduce the clutter and redundancy. Yours was pretty old, but I stickied one that already had over 200 replies in it. -Anandtech Moderator DrPizza

I'll see it not only because it looks awesome but because Christian Bale is my mancrush. :heart:

A week after more than likely. Hopefully miss the crowd.

Oh and likely carry a set of ear plugs around for a week in the interim.

I've never seen a movie in IMAX before and want to watch The Dark Knight in IMAX. What's the difference?

What's the size of a normal movie screen? Apparently IMAX is 16 meters high by 22 wide.

Looks awesome. I only saw Batman Begins for the first time 2 weeks ago, and I think it may even be better than the first Batman. Also, I'm surprised at the negative reception to Katie Holmes. At first, I thought Maggie Gyllenhaal, who's great, was playing a new character; turns out she's replacing Tomcat due to "scheduling issues". Fans sound happy that she's gone. Was she really that bad or is this a Tomcat thing?

Not me. At least Katie's nice to look at, Maggie looks like someone beat the shit out of her with a brick her whole life.

I'd like the see that joker in a sequel.... I'm gonna give Ledger where credit is due, but I think the makeup folks really made him look astonishing. From the previews, he looks like a much better villain than Liam was in Batman Begins.

Maggie Gyllenhaal... Miss S&M... *Drool*

and she really enjoyed her role in that s&m/b&d movie.

Not really hyped up for this, and I wasn't for Begins either. However I did enjoy Begins when I finally saw it on DVD. I'm already spoiled for The Dark Knight, and I might try to see this one in the theater. I'm actually more excited about Hellboy 2.

I have high hopes. I really liked Batman Begins. This will be one of the few movies I bother going to see in the theater, despite how shitty they are around here.
