Best movie of the year by far. It has to be on my top 5 most favorite movies list of all time.
I dont even know what to say about it except that this Joker is the biggest, baddest, most vile villain ever put on the big screen. Darth Vader can step out of the way and fall into a second lava pit. The Joker is here.

Sorry, my loyalties still lie with Star Wars. But yeah, the movie was fantastic, the Joker was awesome, and everyone needs to see this long, incredibly entertaining movie as soon as possible!

Well, if it makes you feel better, Mark Hamill, Luke from StarWars, was actually the voice for the Joker in Batman: The Animated series. His performance was so great that he became the definitive Joker for a looong time. So if you think about it, the Joker is Darth Vader's son. <_< >_> No? Ok... Also, this movie demands multiple viewings. To one billion dollars!

The Joker totally stole the show. He was hilariously evil. Definitely one of the best villains.
Two-Face was also quite decent, with the whole coin flipping thing. I was actually quite surprised that Rachel died. Didn't really expect the whole love-of-protagonist thing to actually get killed off.
Pity the Joker probably won't be in any future movies. Under the same actor, of course.

I forbid the Nolan brothers from using the Joker character in the third movie. It just isn't right for someone else to play the role, and we've got to look ahead. I know we all love the Joker, but there are plenty more villains to be explored.
And they pulled off TwoFace better than I would have expected them to. His transformation was more than just some guy flipping a coin to decide someone's fate. It was tragic to see that he resorted to a toss of a coin when for his whole life he had "made his own luck".

Yea, no one will be able to pull off that character. Trying to have someone else play the role of Joker would just make the movie lame. The acting by him was truly legendary. A villian that we love to hate.

Yeah, they definitely should not use a new actor. Someone suggested on Starmen.net that they should show a scene or so with Harley Quinn to show that the Joker is still active without him being in the movie, sorta like the return of the Scarecrow. I think it might be neat. But I'm sure Mr. Nolan can turn any of the Batman villains into a great success.

...True... but if the Harley Quinn implies Joker is there, then there should be total chaos, because... he's chaotic :/ And that may not work...
Oh well. Let's see.

I saw it on the premiere, and it was awesome. I loved the movie. Especially the part with the two boats, it literally had me on the edge of my seat.

I was kinda surprised about the criminal dude, though. I'm happy that he had a good heart enough to let the people live

That part was one of the best. And I never thought about a brief cameo with Harley Quinn acting for the Joker while he's away. I'm really liking that. Getting back to the boat part, thought it was a great idea, I dont think it was executed very well. I'd really expect criminals to just start a riot. There are so many of them afterall, and they're criminals for goodness' sakes! A little bit of better acting/directing could have made that scene a whole lot better, not that it wasn't sweet!
