SnowWolf said:Got my IMAX tickets, Friday afternoon. This is the first time I've ever pre-bought a ticket so I'm very excited.
I haven't been to an IMAX film in about a decade so I'm not sure what to expect. Is seating for IMAX better designed so that even people in the front rows can get a good view without craning their necks? Or should I get to the theater an hour early to ensure good seats? This is the first movie I've seen in the theater in about two years so I don't mind getting there early
yeah i would say get their earlier. the seating unfortunately is not designed so that you can sit anywhere. well thats my personal experience anyway based on the IMAX here in NYC.
i would say get their early and get good seats.
for example i have tickets for the 19th 10pm show. im thinking of getting there around 8 so if there is a line im at the front and so i can have my whole group there and get good seats.
i know its excessive but having good seats is worth waiting for.

Really? I love hearing reactions from people. Gasps, "Oh shits," and all the rest. It's fun. For me, if there was no one else to enjoy it with, theatres would be a boring experience.
In fact, it made the bullshit of Spider-Man 3 so much better. The crowds helped the hilarity.
Yeah, there's always a few annoying people and a bunch of kids, but whatever. This event will be fans only. People who really want to see the movie and are there to really enjoy it. And fuck yes we have to see it in IMAX. Seeing the Prologue in December with Heath's awesomely disturbing visage on an 80ft screen was great. I can't wait to see what else they show on it.

will totally Facebook friend you! *giggle* *LOL*
Does any one know anyone who is NOT interested in seeing TDK?
I'm serious. It's not just my friends. It's my family. It's all my coworkers. Strangers hearing passerby conversation. I don't know a single person who doesn't want to see this film as soon as possible. This is fucking insane. Unprecedented. Incredible.

I got a text from someone today that went "only a few more days man, only a few more days" :lol
How in the world did I miss this thread ?
I looked for it for about 15 minutes :lol
Anyway, The Joker
Is one of most accurately protrayed and realistically achieved comic book to life transformations, ever.
Very much so, beyond the aspects that need to be filled by the actor in order for the character to be illustrated properly.
Single handedly the best villian I have ever seen.
Is it wrong for me to go to a Batman movie, wanting to see The Joker ?
Is there a comic book character, better displayed ?

so wait, i post 10 positive reviews and it gets no response, someone posts 1 partially negative review and it gets qouted for reference and doubts about the movie, bunch of idiots
DMczaf said:
Fixed. I thought GAF was really bad about this sort of thing, but my recent discovery of RT has opened my eyes. Compared to it, this place is a veritable haven of civilized discussion. :lol
artredis1980 said:
Only one person has cited the review as a possible source of doubt and even he said that it was "only one opinion" as compared to the majority out there. I see no idiotic behavior here. (yet)

GAF's filled with several captious malcontents.
You'll learn to ignore them.

Yeah, there are several moments in the review that hint at the author preferring the way BB did things. (i.e. the bit about Begins' theme of Revenge vs. Justice being more suitable to a screen drama than the elements being explored here and the respect the author seemingly has for Holmes' characterization, even if he prefers her replacement's acting ability, of Rachel) Unfortunately, it's hard for me to glean much about how the screenplays compare, (which is my main concern) word for word, without specific examples, so I can only wait and see how TDK stacks up for myself since most of the article's focus is on the themes of the two, the darkness, the action, (which, according to this reviewer, is as indecipherable as the first- other reviewers haven't had this problem have they?) and the performances.
Is it just me or are you guys super glad that the trailers haven't really spoiled the plot of the movie?
All they show, usually, are splices from the two main trailers, and some extra dialogue. Going into this movie, I don't really have a clue of what the plot is about. I know that the Joker is there and he kills stuff for seemingly no reason, Harvey Dent becomes what we know, and Batman is emo.
This is how I know that the movie will still blow me away even if I've watched every clip and trailer, everything isn't in context.

Yeah, this bit particularly:
"Anton Fursts splendid Gothic Gotham of Tim Burtons Batman, which summoned up the freaky superheros inner landscape of vaulted arches and gargoyles."
Seems to indicate more the direction he prefers. Now, I don't want to become the thing I despise and put words in the reviewer's mouth, but it is interesting that he follows up his comparision of TDK's more realistic Gotham and Burton's more fanciful take with a note on the lack of imagination in TDK. I could be reading him totally wrong, but I hope he's not equating realism with dullness.

Oops, my bad. I guess the "Bwahahaha!" should've tipped me off. :lol
I have, admittedly, become quite the stickler about "reviewing the reviews." Over time, it's just become the most annoying thing to me, so it really riles me up whenever I see anything resembling it.
