Scroll down to the bottom and you can watch his video review. This guy gives a very good review about it. His major complaint was that it's too long in his opinion. He called Heath's performance STUNNING and that he feels he's a lock for a nomination and will probably win an Oscar. He said the first 2 hours was incredible but the last 30+ minutes wasn't necessary. "Nolan didn't need to tell this story in this particular film. He could have told this in a separate movie." Overall, he gave it 8.5 out of 10.

Axl's fucked. Gonna have to release different songs on the album if he ever releases an album. No one is going to be willing to pay for this outside a very small number of hardcore fans. Everyone already has high quality versions of around 70% of the album. That is the point of no return.

I wouldn't want it rated R. R just means there's swearing, which is easy dialogue and not that interesting, and sex, which is completely useless in a Batman movie.
This movie will be awesome.
A little blood would be nice though. Blood is real. These movies are trying to be as gritty and real as possible, given the subject matter which is of course over the top. Having hardly any blood in the movie detracts from its impact I think. It makes the Joker's actions less frightening when he's killing people and it's so toned down like in the Prologue where like 6 people get shot and killed yet there's no blood whatsoever. The movie has a high body count and almost no blood. I don't want buckets of blood like a slasher horror movie or anything, but a realistic use of blood would be good to have.

Because after all these years, the image I've been handed was of a track that'd rip my teeth out of their gums.
And I know I'm not alone in that.
(Track 2 is a good song, certainly growing on me. Just couldn't connect it to the Prostitute myth in a million years.)
So you admit you're in denial because you're clinging to the hope that Prostitute is the best song ever? Well at least you're honest. Most of us in this fanbase won't even admit that much. 
Thank God for TDK. I know for sure that it won't disappoint like Chinese Democracy surely will.

Yep, it is Prostitute. It's a good song, but it's not that amazing.

I can not wait for this. Its' gonna fucking rule. heath ledger will be a legend after this.
one complaint. Why did they make it PG-13
$$$$$$$$$$
This movie has huge potential with that rating. It's far more restricted in its box office potential as an R flick. Matrix Reloaded was huge as an R movie, but I think WB really wants to tap into the teenage male audience that would be able to see this on their own with it being PG 13 but not if it's R. I will say this though. From everything I have seen and heard, it is quite a brutal film. There is no gore, there is no sex, there is no foul language. That is the only reason it's PG 13. Joker's actions are truly fucked up (kills off like 6 people in the first 5 frickin' minutes!) and Two-Face is gruesome looking.

Where are the Appetite songs on steroids? The answer to that is simple. They don't exist.

Bad-fucking-ass.

This could very well be the best film this decade.
Definently the best film this year.
Don't know about that, but it looks like we might have the PERFORMANCE of the decade. I seriously think Heath's work looks better than Bardem's in No Country. It's more dynamic. The constant voice changes are incredible and the mannerisms are unreal. Hell, I actually feel Memento is the film of the decade so far (although Batman Begins is my favorite movie ever) but Memento was just brilliant. Great shit. We do have the same Nolan brothers who created that creating TDK, so maybe it will live up to such hype. I sure hope so.

If a DVD screener of this leaks, it may be the most downloaded torrent in history.
I think you are right, but the true fans are too psyched to not see this in theaters. ESPECIALLY in IMAX. In fact, the IMAX theater I am going to see it at is already sold out for the midnight show. A bunch of them are already sold out. Still 3 and a half weeks away, pretty impressive.
