:D Knew you'd like it!

I don't know.... I thought early on in the movie where they showed Dent's frustration with that hoodlum of Joker's, pointing a gun at his head threatening to kill him, foreshadowed his propensity for possibly losing it, or turning "evil" as it were. That was long before he turned into Two-Face as well.

He was totally in control of that situation though...it was all for show, just trying to scare the guy into talking.

Remember, he "makes his own luck".

I think I would be pretty fucking insane if the love of my life was blown into meatballs.




Glad you got to see it sweetie!:)

I understand The Return.... I just thought it was some good foreshadowing of what was to come was all.

Thanks. Can't wait until it comes out on DVD!

Already, there’s talk of whether "The Dark Knight" can sink "Titanic" and become the top-grossing film of all time in North America.

It’s a tricky, and even dubious, comparison.

"Titanic," which collected $600.8 million in total ticket sales, played in theaters for nine months after opening at Christmas — an eternity by today’s standards. Pic stayed at No. 1 for 15 weeks, seeing only minimal declines and, in some cases, gains.

Warner Bros.’ "Dark Knight" is making history, but in an entirely different way. In less than two weeks, it has rewritten the rules about just how big a summer superhero tentpole can be, both in terms of its opening and ongoing playability.

"Dark Knight" may not be able to surpass "Titanic," but it has every chance of becoming the No. 2 grossing film domestically, besting the original "Star Wars," which grossed $461 million, including re-releases.

"Shrek 2" holds the No. 3 spot at $436.7 million.

Through Monday, its 11th day in release, "Dark Knight" hit a cume of $324.3 million. There’s a good chance that it will get to $400 million by early next week. Many believe the Batman sequel will ultimately jump the $500 million mark at the domestic B.O.

"You can’t compare this movie to ‘Titanic.’ That was a different time, and a different genre," said Warners president of distribution Dan Fellman. "Look, at the end of the day, there’s never been another movie like this that has done $500 million in business. That’s a gross that will be remembered for eternity."

"Dark Knight" and "Titanic" took entirely different routes in their first two weekends. "Titanic" made just $28.6 million when opening over the weekend of Dec. 19, 1997. The next weekend, it saw a 24% gain, grossing $35.4 million.

Ultimately, "Dark Knight" may not be able to attract as broad an audience as "Titanic" did.

Also, the movie biz has changed dramatically since "Titanic." Because of an overcrowded pipeline, studios — anticipating steep drop-offs — look for their holiday and summer tentpoles to score giant openings.

Just as "Dark Knight" overperformed in its opening, it’s also bucked the trend in doing better ongoing business than expected.

well, i'll be seeing it for a second time tomorrow night - i dont do that very often.

Me and my crew are not big 'go to the movies people' but last time we were out -getting ready to go see Hancock, my husband said maybe we should see Batman again. :eek:
You would have to know my husband to understand how shocked I was at that comment .
But I agree. I would really like to see Batman again :)

There was talk of Spiderman 3 selling more tickets because of the change in ticket costs and with these numbers I have no doubt in my mind that Star Wars will have still sold more tickets than TDK. While it's hard to really gauge the whole thing because that number includes Star Wars' re-release in 1977 ticket prices Averaged $2.23, today we're around $7.08! I have to go see TDK in IMAX again though...
