Following Batman Films--Since 2005. Batman Begins granted me the opportunity to revisit a character I loved as a kid, yet I now have a fond appreciation for the adult-oriented graphic novels.

Looking forward in TDK-I'm hoping for a real epic modern crime/noir thriller. The Joker vs. Batman done well. Dent, everything!

Film so far-Totally astounding in scope IMO. I'm being very careful about spoilers from now on. I do want some suprises when I watch the movie.

Heath Ledger as Mr. J.

What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
I think Nolan is one of the best directors out there, and everything he's done so far has been phenomenal - in my opinion, starting with Memento. This movie will rock.

How long have you been following Batman on film?
Since B89


What do you looking forward to seeing most in THE DARK KNIGHT?
A great plot which is not only visually appealling- but also mentally stimulating. I would really love for a big surprise ending- similar to The Prestige. Of course- I can't wait to see Ledger as Joker. I really hope he is as dark and menacing as people claim- a true villian.


What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
I appreciate what Nolan has done for the franchise and I love how he goes out of his way to explain all facets of batman's mechanical technology. I have faith that he and WB will market this product to the fans the best way possible. I am open minded to new ideas(Tumbler, Batpod, cut smile) as long as they have enough supporting evidence to make it work. I love this new Batman franchise and I think that Nolan, Bale, Caine, Ledger, Eckhart and the rest are going to give us a great product- because they believe in what they are doing and they know how important the roles of superheros are in eyes of the world.

What do you looking forward to seeing most in THE DARK KNIGHT?
the joker being the "anti-Batman": where rhas al ghoul wanted the same thing as batman but had different methods, and carmine falcone just simply disregarding what batman stood for, the joker should be purely and intentionally against everything batman stands for. His sense of humor is sadistic rather than goofy.

What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
With Nolan's love for the characters, his style of filmaking, and his focus on the psychological aspects of the story make it hard to make a bad film.

How long have you been following Batman on film?
I always looked forward to Batman since 1989 but like most people, got turned off after watching Batman & Robin. When Batman Begins came out, I was hesitant because I wondered how they handeled it. I absolutely loved the film and now I'm really looking forward to The Dark Knight.

What do you looking forward to seeing most in THE DARK KNIGHT?
I can't wait to see how the Joker will be handled and what the relationship between him and Batman will be. I also want to see Bruce evolve as a person and a crime fighter. I'm also looking forward to the new costume and how he uses it. There's so many new characters involved now and I'm excited to see how Batman is going to deal with all of them.

What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
I'm very excited for the film in general. I was blown away how Christopher Nolan handled Begins. I felt it portrayed Batman perfectly and I trust Nolan will not disappoint the fans. I think he's got a great understanding of what fans want and therefore knows what they want to see. Obviously, he's going to make some compromises but you take what you get and you enjoy it. I think The Dark Knight will be able to please even the most casual Batman fans. I'm limiting myself to the information posted on the internet. Like Batman Begins, I want to go in with minimal knowledge of the film.

How long have you been following Batman on film?
Since I was a kid with Batman 89'. Then I stopped following them after Forever, and skipped Batman and Robin completely. Then picked right back up with Begins. Now I am foaming at the mouth with TDK anticipation.

What do you look forward to seeing most in THE DARK KNIGHT?
The growth of Batman and Bruce Wayne as characters. I am very looking to seeing how is changed by the events that will unfold... and of Course Joker and Two Face!

What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
So far, so good! Most of the stuff they are coming up with is excellent.
I am a little turned off by the joker possibley putting on clown make-up, but if he does I am sure the characterization will be dead on as it seems through the ARG marketing.

Cool Joker scenes > Man, he will rock!

What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
I think this film will be amazing! Heath Ledger is a great actor and he IS the Joker. I have faith in him and Chris Nolan. They will do the right thing and I don't think we will be disappointed...

How long have you been following Batman on film?
all my life, really, after seeing B89 for the first time. I was young enough to actually appreciate Batman & Robin when it came out too, but thankfully that changed over the years.

What are you looking forward to seeing the most in THE DARK KNIGHT?
I'm really anxious to see how Nolan handles Harvey Dent and his transition into Two-Face. Also, I'm (of course) highly anticipating a fresh take on the Joker.


What are your thoughts on the film as a whole?
It'll be nice to see a film that doesn't have to deal with an origin-story set in the wonderful world of Batman Begins.
