People are claiming Ledger's portrayal of the Joker is the "best portrayal of a villain ever".

I'm sorry, but that's bollocks. I know it's sad he died but he doesn't REALLY deserve all this huge hype. Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs / Jack Nicholson in The Shining easily are the best.

I agree. I haven't seen it so I can't comment on Heath's acting, but it does seem all the buzz for the film is on him. It is meant to be REALLY good though, so hopefully he does live up to the hype.

Well I forgot to tell you, I leave my MSN on a lot without putting away status' so don't think I'm ignoring you!

I really think Rachel McAdams should've taken over Katie Holmes' role as Rachel Dawes; however, Maggie Gyllenhaal was a good choice. What were they thinking with Holmes in Begins?

I'm rewatching Batman Begins tonight to refresh my memory. I never knew Christian Bale was welsh.

It's 3 hours long?

Must be a mighty good film, I've literally been counting down the days to see it.

'Dark Knight' sets weekend record with $155.34M
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Warner Bros. executive says the Batman sequel "The Dark Knight" has taken in $155.34 million to top "Spider-Man 3" for best opening weekend ever at the box office.

The figures released Sunday show "The Dark Knight" more than $4 million ahead of the $151.1 million first weekend for "Spider-Man 3" in May 2007.

Studio distribution chief Dan Fellman says "The Dark Knight" also broke the "Spider-Man 3" record for best debut in IMAX large-screen theaters with $6.2 million. "Spider-Man 3" opened with $4.7 million in IMAX cinemas.

Yep, you could never tell in any interview because I heard that he always puts on the accent that he used in the film for any interviews related to the movie.

The official numbers are now $158 million.

And it's number 1 on IMDb's all time list. Pretty amazing to say the least. I'll definitely be seeing this in the cinema. But will it be sold out if I get a chance to see it? Chances are...... yes.

OMG was brilliant! I predict that its the best film this summer! So action packed and brilliant one-liners from The Joker. I might go see it again on Friday haha. Also got a holographic poster with Joker/Harvey Dent/Batman on it, exclusively for the people who went to the premier.. Woop! GO SEE THE FILM!!!

Oh my freakin' god. Just got back from seeing it, absolutely fantastic! I loved every single minute of it. It really did exceed my expectations. Heath Ledger was amazing as the Joker, faultless and I can really see why he's getting all this hype. If you thought Begins was good then you'll be blown away by this film. Action non stop. It's definitley my favorite film of 2008 so far and it's one of my best films of all time. I'm going to see it again next week with my dad. The Joker is so funny in it as well, I expected him to be really bitter but some of the stuff he did was hilarious. I really do hope this film gets loads of awards, because it seriously deserves it.
