Did Joker switch the addresses on Batman? Did Batman think he was going to save Rachel? I didn't catch that, but someone mentioned that.

I was also quite happy to see the explosion of the tumbler. I've never been a fan of this varation of the Batmobile.

Amazing ![](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/wfcensored.gif) ing movie, one of my favorites of all time. And for me to like a movie like that, it takes alot. Two face is definitely alive and kicken and will be in the next one. There wasnt really a bad part to that whole movie, and Joker was just amazing.

I think if anything, if Two-Face comes back next film and turns on his city, Batman can come back and defeat him to become the hero the city knows they need and deserve.

It could be a way to actually have the city turn on it's officials for lying to them about Dents death. Then Batman could return to the fold to save Gotham and more or less save the officials from citizen anarchy.

I was originally upset at the idea of Harvey dying, but now I think it's fufilled his purpose, and that maybe there's not much that could've been done with him anyways. He became more vigilante, and more of a man-on-revenge mission. Plus, the guy's in horrible pain, and wanted to kill himself anyways.
I just can't see him turning into the kind of over-the-top criminal overlord Two-Face character. Not with the way he was written for Nolan's world.

I stayed up until about halfway through the credits to see the "In Memory of..." text on the screen.
I don't think there was anything afterwards, though.

There a couple of pieces of technology that were very scoff worthy. Finding the thumb print on the bullet that was busted into tiny shards in the concrete, and the whole sonar imaging technology that he used to find the Joker. Nolan's films work well because how realistic they feel, but those two things really took me out of that world for a moment, they weren't necessary. I actually loved it. I was thinking the same like that, but then I thought, why question it? Sure, it's a realistic take on Batman, but it stays true to the comics by having all of this technology that Bruce Wayne has access to that you never question in the comic books, no matter how far-fetched it may be. I thought the same thing with how easily Joker could be one, two, or three steps ahead of the GPD with his plans. It's a realistic approach to the movies, but it still has the basic fantasy elements of the comic books that still make it a comic book adaptation. It's far-fetched sometimes, but it's just plain fun to watch. Yeah, but that's wanting it both ways, like I said, I scoffed at the absurdity of it because Nolan already set the tone for it being "realistic", I honestly thought it was one of the major flaws in the film. The picture could have been just as great if not more so if they would have left those two pieces out of the movie.- they weren't needed.

Amazing movie, simply put. I loved it, probably my favorite movie of all time. The performances were great from Ledger and Eckhart and Bale was great too. I laughed a lot at the scene where Joker was walking out of the hospital and trying to get the hospital to blow up, but it wouldn't and then he pushed the button and it blew up and he scurried into the bus.

How much time do you guys think has passed in between Batman Begins and The Dark Knight?

Incredible movie, maybe my favorite of all time, and I'm not just saying that spur of the moment. Question is, who will join Two-Face in 2011?

Maybe he was just knocked out hardcore while Batman was creeping over him and he fled somewhere. If Scarecrow can show up in 2 movies, then Two-Face can too.

Enough time for the Joker to have sort of made a name for himself.
So, do I stand alone when I say my favorite scene in the movie was the opening scene? I thought it was brilliantly done.
Great movie overall, hoping to see it again tonight at 12:30am (well, Saturday morning)... if it's not sold out. I almost cried when the movie was over. I mean, after seeing a great performance from Ledger and to think we'll never get to see something like that again from him, got me a little choked up.
If you ask me, I wouldn't be suprised if Ledger wins Best Supporting Actor this year, unless someone comes out with something better.

God that was so awesome, Ledger's Joker was amazing. Commissioner Gordon "dying" and coming back was perfect and really shocked me, I didn't expect for them to kill of Dent. I totally wasn't expecting to end when it did, I NEEDED MORE. A lot of the Joker's little plans reminded me of an episode of CSI or the SAW movies.
