    Ok, capacitors recharged.

    First and fore most, the thing everyone is going to be concerned with, Heath's final performance. I personal have never even imagined as bat shit fucking crazy a Joker and Heath pulled it off masterfully, this is truely one of the best ways I can imagine to remember his skill as an actor, as he was able to completely transform himself into the role.

    As always Bale's acting was top knotch, yadda yadda yadda...

    The only places this movie falls apart I think is that there is a ton of running around towards the middle and end of the movie that may or may not be confusing, but the constant action and again Heath's genius acting keep things going and g'damn was it a hell of a ride.

    All I can say is, go see this freaking movie if you are at all a fan of batman, you are going to have a blast, but be prepared, it's even darker and grittier than any you've seen before.

    I didn't care much for batman at all untill I saw Batman Begins.

    I like the new style, the darker turn it's taking.

    Im hope'n that heath ledger will win some kind of award for playing the joker, did such a great job at it. What a way to end your career (shitty, but true). I didnt even recognize heath and to be honest if no one said it was heath ledger who played the joker i would have never noticed... good good stuff!

    I could see a little of Heath's face when the Joker was in interrogation. But yeah, I've been thinking about this tonight...The Joker was possibly one of the best acting performances I have ever seen. Heath nailed the part absolutely perfectly.

    There's already talk of him winning the Oscar for Best Actor. And if he does he'll be the first to win it posthumously in 20 years.

    Yea its hard to tell that its him but there are small parts where his face shows through or you can hear a tiny bit of his voice. But he did a great job with the acting. I still have to go see it though.
