Dark Knight
« on: January 11, 2009, 06:16:46 PM »
   What a waste of time that was.

    A loose bundle of plot that always made me feel like I was left out and expected to know something. Clint Eastwood voice for Batman was too hard to understand. The Joker got old quick and it just plain sucked in my opinion. Best part was when Joker wandered out of the hospital when it blew up in the nurse's dress.

You didnt like the magic trick?  :t

IMO the plot was so-so but the acting was top notch. I've always liked Gary Oldman and I thought Christian Bale makes a good Batman AND Bruce Wayne. Personally I like the "Clint Eastwood voice".

I liked that he changed his voice as Batman. It always got me trying to figure out in the older movies (Keaton, Kilmer and we won't even SPEAK of Clooney....) how Bruce Wayne and Batman had the same voice, but no one could ever figure it out....

Kinda like how no one could figure out that Clark Kent was Superman in glasses and a business suit instead of his underwear.

Hopefully the next one will be good, it's supposed to come out in 2011, "Superman - Man Of Steal", in this one they wont have Lex Luther as the vilian, as of now they haven't pick who the vilian will be.

I didn't like it either. I was way disappointed. The acting was good but the plot was just awful. The script was awful. It was the latest movie of that type that were just awful. Starting with the last Pirates of the Carribean and Spiderman 3. The only decent movies I have seen in the last year are Casino Royale and Wild Hogs. I watch those over and over.

Personally i thought "Dark Knight" was an excellent movie!  The plot was kinda ify.  When ya thought the movie was done, they would throw something else into it to stretch it out another 15 min.

The only bad movie ive seen lately was Tropic Thunder, i thought it was funny, but not as good as i thought it would be!  I havent seen all the Superman movies, so i was kind of lost when i watched Superman Returns!!

Im really looking forward to "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen" and "X-man: Origin of Wolverine"  I think both of these movies will be blockbusters!!

   I guess my age is showing. To me all these hyped movies end up disappointing me. I cant remember hardly any movies Ive seen over the past 3 years. Finding a good memorable movie is tough. Usually a good gauge for me is if I dont know any of the actors I enjoy it.

I think one of the best movie I've seen in a few years would be Superbad, I laughed my bellybutton off watching that movie.

Eagle Eyes:

You only needed to see Superman I and II. Superman Returns throws out Superman III and IV (which may be the BEST part of it).

Finally saw that about 2 months ago...it was funny, but Superbad has it beat!

My all time favorite movies are Top Gun, Kingdom of Heaven, Blackhawk Down, and Saving Private Ryan.....

But i think any movie with Adam Sandler, Jim Carey, Mike Myers, and Robin Williams is to die for! Cant stand Will Farrell though, think he's just an idiot!!

Plus any movie with Will Smith is worth the $9 movie ticket a bunch of times at the local theater!!

If you think Dark Knight was a bad movie I suggest you rent a Jean Claude Van-Damme movie and rethink what you just said.  :salute  :rofl
