I might just go and watch it again but at the IMAX.


I know what you mean. With a performance this great, I would want to fully experience it all the way.

I am glad that I didn't wait to see this on home video. I might have lost the full effect of this tremendous performance.

Some of my friends have already seen the movie twice now.


Yeah I actually found the joker pretty sexy. I don't know what that says about me but... haha. I've loved Heath Ledger since I was pretty young so maybe it's some of that too haha.

And I'm actually going to see it for the second time soon because my friend hasn't seen it yet and she wants to go. Either way I wanted to see it again anyway.

I couldn't agree more. Infact I didn't have a problem with Maggie Gyllenhaal. Although Katie Holmes wasn't too bad in Batman Begins... but still.

Half of the people that I went with to see the movie had already read all sorts of stuff on it and for some it was their 2nd time seeing it. Nothing that I read or saw took from this performance. I have never raved over any acting like this in my life. Even from the first scene of seeing the Joker. I said, "DAMN!" You can feel that the audience loves this guy.

I have a feeling we will be seeing a lot of people dressed as the Joker for Halloween. Although, nothing can compare to the real thing.

Shoot, I know of someone that has a tattoo of the clown from the movie, "It". I bet this guy will be rushing out to get a tattoo of the Joker. I know he will.

The very second he was like, how about a magic trick, everyone went holy shit! From there on I knew it would be amazing.

Also, yeah there is going to be overwhelming amounts of jokers on Halloween. Oh, and I was on bat-blog and someone got a Joker (Heath Ledger) tattoo, it's awesome.

Heath Ledger was just brilliant. He definitely deserves an Oscar for this. I also love how the movie began! Smart!!!



Yes, I totally agree he deserves an Oscar. I really can not think of a Villain that liked better. I have been searching my memory bank.

The Silence of the Lambs movie was really good. Hmmm. Those are different. Gosh, I just find it hard to think of any movie where I liked the Villain this much.

Can anyone else think of a Villain that can top this one? If so, please share. I will certainly see that movie. Yep, I have the popcorn on stand by.

Wow, now, I want to see that tattoo. Could you send me a link by PM to see it?

I am going to forewarn my dear friend that is a tattoo artist to not be surprised by the requests. She has not seen the movie.

Oh, I know. I just loved how the audience was so into the Joker. You could hear all those comments in the background. LOL They were loving every minute of it.

I wanted to hit the thanks button two times on that comment.

My niece told her boyfriend, "I am in love." He said, "Thanks." She said, "Sorry, but I was talking about the Joker."

I really loved the movie! i saw it saturday.
I have always liked Heath Ledger, but I didn't know I'd cry for a week after he died. his death was really surprising and I had no idea it would affect me as much as it has.
I'm glad he is getting recognition and praise for his role, he is a great actor.

I saw it last night >_< It was excellent and there were many great performances but Heath Ledger as The Joker was a standout for sure. It is tragic that he died as this film would surely have earned him tons of recognition and more great roles. Christian Bale continues to impress. I love his "dumbed down" version of Bruce Wayne lol... And he is just so nice to look at!! I am so glad that he got this opportunity to be Batman as it has opened up so many more doors for him and we get to see more and more of his talent. I'm looking forward to the 3rd installment of Nolan's Batman

I saw it on opening night with my boyf and luckily he'd bought our tickets in advance after work as the 8:30pm showing had sold out so he got the 10:45pm tickets.

When we got to the cinema, there was an 100 person long queue for our showing! I was thinking "Erm..it's only Batman!". There was even some guy dressed up as Batman there!

Maybe it's an American thing but everyone was whooping and cheering and clapping non-stop whenever the joker did anything - I found it quite annoying actually.

That aside, Heath Ledger was soooooooo good in it and it made me sad watching him in it. He had so much talent.

I'm not really a big lover of action hero remake films but this was pretty good. The special effects were fab, though I do agree that Maggie whatsherface didn't make her character very believable.
