The Dark Night...No Words

Instead of trying to write a clever review for Dark Knight, I thought I would simply provide a conversation that I had about the movie with a fellow, knowledgeable friend of mine. Enjoy.

lnbomb: what did you think?

neelybomber: well, there was a lot of hype
neelybomber: and i mean A LOT of hype

lnbomb: yeah... but im sorry... i feel it lived up to every bit of it
lnbomb: i say 9.9 tho
lnbomb: cuz the only thing i didnt like
lnbomb: is that they didnt kill the joker
lnbomb: it was redic that he stayed alive
lnbomb: when he gave the speech about being "like gravity... it just needs a push.... " he shoulda unclipped himself and died

neelybomber: i actually thought they were gonna let him fall like in the first batman movie

lnbomb: yup
lnbomb: me too
lnbomb: and it seems like they had that speech for that very reason... but removed it... my brother said it might have been because they felt it insensible to kill him.... but I was like screw that...
lnbomb: i dont think its a matter of that at all
lnbomb: one thing is for sure however.... they better not try to revisit it
lnbomb: because no one would be able to touch ledger's performance

neelybomber: i agree
neelybomber: but in a way, the joker will live forever...

lnbomb: true..... that movie def made me even more aware at what was lost when he passed

neelybomber: yeah. i can def believe that that role caused his death

lnbomb: ohhh it was so spectacular
lnbomb: he stole the movie

neelybomber: i didn't even recognize him...which was the best part

lnbomb: yup
lnbomb: but the whole story was so well written aswell
lnbomb: and i think they pulled twoface in as early as they did because they don't have any intentions of revisiting the batman series anytime soon..... which i think is for the best

neelybomber: yeah. i liked the katie holmes look-a-like

lnbomb: LOL
lnbomb: yeah totally
lnbomb: HOWEVER, there was a slight hint at catwoman.... did you catch it?
lnbomb: but i dont wanna see that garbage

neelybomber: what was the hint?

lnbomb: when he was talking about the new suit... and he asked if it would protect from dogs... and he said it should from cats at least

neelybomber: haha...you might be looking too far into it

lnbomb: no way.... there was no point to that conversation otherwise.... but like i said... i hope it was just a nod to the series... rather than a possible seed
lnbomb: kinda like it was a huge nod to the fanboys when he said " you want to be able to turn your head?"

neelybomber: haha, yeah ok
neelybomber: you still have leave room for coincidence tho

lnbomb: oh and i do... im not that sure in my own thoughts hahahah

neelybomber: quite the movie

lnbomb: for sure
lnbomb: i probably will see it again in theaters

neelybomber: i'll just get it on blu-ray. one of the speakers in the theater blew out when the tumbler came out
neelybomber: so it sounded like there was distant gunfire for the rest of the movie

lnbomb: hahahaha

I absolutely cannot wait to see this movie! I am going to see it tonight, but EVERYONE, and I literally mean everyone, has been raving about Ledger's performance. They say he definitely made the movie. I am so sad he died. He would have been one of the top actors of this time. He still had many more good movies in him. Such a tragedy, but I guess he ended on his best movie ever. If you have to go, go out big and apparently he did.
