Spoilers abound for The Dark Knight.

I have an itch to icon in the worst way. I blame this itch on watching Romeo + Juliet. If you've ever seen it, you may remember it as 'That 90s movie with Claire Danes and Leonardo DiCaprio and lots of cheesy editing and badly placed melodrama?". If you have never seen it, I say you go and watch it. Now. Well,

I loved this movie too. It was just so much fun. What's not to love about the Joker in nurse clothes blowing stuff up?

Haha, as for Harley Quinn... I was wondering this too. Throughout the last half hour of the movie my mom kept on commenting about how "Harvey Dent is going to be evil! Just watch!" and then when he did she went all, "See? Told you. Now they're going to make another movie." Sooooo maybe she'll be in that one? Lol, I dunno. XD

What's so awesome is that it's fun - but it also gave me the creeps and made me think. Even if the philosophy was a bit over-the-top, it still inspired some thought.

LOL. I was watching it with my mom and younger brother. My brother ruined the movie early on by being all, "It's Two-Face!" (he's younger, and remembers the cartoon better than I do, even though it was one of my faves. The coin tipped him off).

I kept whispering to my my mom saying that the Mayor's eyeliner was distracting me. xD (Was it just me, or did he look like Nathan Petrelli? Nathan + eyeliner, of course. I didn't catch who played him, but, hm.)

Hahaha. Wanna see a magic trick? xP

I loved it too! It kind of hurt my heart to watch, since I'm not much of a thriller/action person, but it was awesomeee. I thought Christian Bale's Batman voice was hilarious, but I grew to love it (the fact that he's a hunk helps).

I actually wasn't too psyched for the movie, so I was totally impressed.

I was the same. D: The tape scene where Joker takes the wannabe-Batman Brian hostage, then tortures him and kills him was surprisingly distressing.

And then the scene with Gordon's son at the end - I will admit that I had tears in my eyes. The writers and actors did an amazing job: at that point, thanks to the Joker, you've lost any security that 'no one important will get hurt', like you have with most other movies.

His Batman voice kinda made me giggle, too. It was the same voice he used for Howl's beastie form (yes, pity me applaud me for my amazing trivia skillz). ;)

*puts hand on eyes not to get any spoilers for the movie since the plans to watch it tomorrow still stand and accidentally slams into a wall*
