The Descent...unfortunately. What a stinker that turned out to be.

People sure seem to split down the middle re: "the descent".
Didn't look that great to me...kind've like a ripjob of pitch black with a different setting, but hey, I'm sure I'll at least give it a watch sometime within the next year.

Just watched Burtons BATMAN. Still like this one most of all. Best batman, best suit, best music/score, best car, best villain (all iMo of course)...Whoever gets the Joker part (even the seemingly ridiculously unsuitable heath ledger) in the next sequel in the batman begins line, has a lot to live up to...

I think Ledger should be able to pull it off...have you seen the photoshopped pic of him that's been floating around? He can definatly look the part...and as far as fitting the darker atmosphere that Nolan used in Begins, I think he'll be a good choice to keep the character more serious. Crazy as fuck but grounded to some extent...I think he'll pull it off.

I won't judge fully until I see it...but still, IMO Nicholson made for THE best comic based film villain portrayal yet. I personally thought that the rumours of Adrien Brody were kinda promising, I can see him pulling off the look better, but hey...the first one was alright, so I'll watch the second either way.

Agreed that Nicholson was incredible in the role...Ledger will certainly be alot different, but I think it will be a good take on the character.

I cant find the fan poster that I mentioned with Ledger, but as soon as I find it I'll post it for you. Really shows that if nothing else, Ledger can easily look the part.

Saw. (4th time)

I never get tired of watching this one. Anyone bashing The Descent and saying they adored Saw, needs to get their brains checked.

I take both movies' names in the same breath because both of em have a lot of similarities and share the same edgy, tense, taut, claustrophobic atmospheric feel.
