The Dark Night. EPIC.

~~~





As alluded to previously, the staff and management of TNP attended a showing of the new Batman thing at the Imax theatre inside the new Smithsonian Air and Space Museum building in Chantilly, VA. If you've never been to an Imax theatre, it's astounding. Everything is bigger, from the screen, to the sound, to the ticket price. The movie was a blast.




Christian Bale brings juuuust enought American Psycho to the part to make Batman (and Bruce Wayne) interesting again.



Why so serious, sad-faced cartoon turtle?

Maggie Gyllenhaal is the gal everybody wants. For some reason.





And Heath Ledger ... well my goodness. He burned the whole world to the ground.

Boneless Monkey told us it was the first movie he's seen in a long time that he'd like to see again. Agreed. Let's go now.



Just sayin' is all ....

With all the talk of Ledger's performance, which was ample, I hope Eckhart's portrayal of Harvey Dent/Two-Face is not overlooked. He did an amazing job with the character that was really the center of the entire plot. Both Batman and Joker used Dent/Two-Face for what they needed.

Great movie.
Not 'Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo' great. But great.

FOR SOME REASON? Are you kidding me? I'm in love with her. Didn't you see Secretary? Stranger Than Fiction? She's adorable!

True, she is adorable. Like Cecil and Churchy La Femme! Look Keith, you made Maggie sad! http://kyleartbow.deviantart.com/art/Sad-Turtle-53900167
