[SJN1279]

Post any thoughts of movies that you've seen or plan to see here.

-The last movie I saw was Bee Movie and I liked it a lot. I'm a fan of Seinfeld's humor though.

-That new George Clooney film was horrible though. It got awesome reviews but I felt it was impossible to follow and pretty dull.

Anyone else see anything of note?

A couple more new posters...





A new trailor leaked online yesterday .. it's incredible but in poor quality so im holding out on posting it until something better comes up ... but my god the laugh it's purely psychotic ... I can't wait to see the Mother's rushing their crying kids out of the cinemas, complaining because this is Batman, it's a comic book and it should be for kids!

Ledger's delivery with certain lines like "I believe, whatever doesn't kill you simpley makes you stranger", and "lets put a smile on that face" go beyond acting .. he's just created something different, this is the performance of the decade for sure. Even just from the 2 leaked clips, Joker's not a "bad guy" in this movie, he's an absolute monster.

Oh and the line from when supposedly been arrested by the police by one of the officers "He's got no background, no other names, his clothing is ... custom, there's nothing in his pockets but knives and lint". Then it cuts to darkness and you hear him say "'evenin commisioner" before he appears on screen looking absolutely fucked up and just staring right at you, gives a very slong blink and swallows awkwardly, then shots of him walking down the street openly firing a machine gun, daring Batman to run him over. Just subtle things are making it awesome too ... he's in the back of a police car hanging out the window catching the wind like a dog would ...

I'm really hoping they play up the Batman/Joker relationship in this .. The line from the trailor "Tonight you're gonna break your one rule" makes me think they will. Batman's one rule is not to kill anyone, Joker might be trying to bait him into killing him thus at the same time destroying everything Batman stands for and forcing him to self destruct. In early comics Joker is fascinated with Batman, someone as fucked up as him yet has the control to not kill whereas to the Joker, killing comes as naturally as breathing. God damnit be July already!
