I'm with ya Zippy, can't wait. Been hearing good things although the Herald just gave it a B rating today.

I wonder how many people will be in the theater this weeknd for Mamma Mia?

(sorry had to, blatant Stern rip off)
I read that Herald review today as well...Rotten Tomatoes has it at 88% Fresh, which is pretty astounding.

im thinking on seeing the dark night sometime during the day friday.

this chick i work with has 4 tickets to the premier tonight in boston... i got bumped.

Boys are so lucky. All their favorite cartoons and comic book characters from the 70's and 80's have been made into all these awesome movies leaving us ladies snickering at all of you alone in the dark I wish someone would make a gothic version of rainbow brite so I could be 'gay' about a movie for once...

Im emailing Tim Burton....

Wasn't there a Rainbow Brite move? Pretty sure Punky and I went to see it. Now if there were a Jem movie we soooo would have been all over it.

I saw that. The Special Efffects sucked.

Geez Duncan, didja use Gaaygle Images to get that one?

(kidding folks...)

Moreso "geek" than "nerd" in this capacity methinks...

or, might I suggest "dork"?

The Dork Knight? Hey, that almost works.

I just bought tickets...for 9:30 on Friday....woulda figured that it woulda been sold out already....so, score!

??
Wicked gay for the Dark Knight perhaps?

Ron did you get IMAX tickets?

Duncan, unfortunately no I didn't, because I had to keep it a little more local for babysitter purposes...but I intend on a repeat viewing.

Still never saw Iron Man tho...boooo.

this movie is very good.

they kept with the realistic approach to it (despite the obvious things).

its almost like a comic movie / mid-90s type denzel washington thriller / science fiction / mob movie all rolled into one. very good stuff.

WOW! Pretty great stuff, I know he's been overhyped but I was so riveted by Heath Ledger.

I thought it was fantastic...no complaints. I read that they used very little CGI in comparison to most movies.

Thanks. I'll catch it later this week, I'm sure.

this flick was amazing.
id give it An A+
see it if you have not.
see it some more if you have.

has any one seen it in IMAX?

This movie was so freakin good, I am still all giddy about it this second...some fellow coworkers and I have been geeking out over it all day, yeah....amazing.

Not my typical first choice of movies but I was really impressed. I agreed to go because I was entertained by Batman Begins. I'm deeply saddened that Heath Ledger is gone because he was INCREDIBLE. Definitely lived up the the hype IMO. There were a few things pointed out to me last night, that I hadn't noticed when watching, and I had to agree it didn't make sense(I won't give any detail as not to spoil). But, I still thought it was amazing. Its very rare that I leave a theater raving about a movie...don't recall one since Sin City.

ps Watchmen looks amazing!!

Yeah, the voice kind of bugs me too. I can't remember, did they explain the voice at all in Batman Begins?

I too did not mind the voice, as I saw it as necessary...tho it was a bit more over the top in a need-a-lozenge way this time, moreso than in Batman Begins, where it was still half speaking voice.

It did get a bit annoying at the end when he was exhausted and it sounded labored...

but hey...wanna see a magic trick?

Apparently "Batman" likes to beat on women.

I don't remember that from the comic books.

The IMAX version was sweet
Heath Ledgers Joker made the movie, I really enjoyed the way he worked his voice in that character. playful yet dark, completely controlled yet crazy. I particularly enjoyed the way he giggled to himself as if a sick joke was in his head and he was only letting a little bit of it out.
Next to this performance Batmans constant growling started to look silly.

only one minor complaint, most of the fight scenes were "typical hollywood" where the action is implied instead of showing it, and they shake the camera for more effect. through the entire movie there was only a handful of actual fighting moves that were shown.

I was completely in awe watching Batman on the huge IMAX screen. definitely worth the drive to Natick.
