…which is why I was lead to believe that the detonators for each boat actually detonated it’s own boat… or both boats… or none.

I had no clue what would happen actually. Makes for good suspense.

As far as I could tell, the Joker lied to him intentionally to get him to save the wrong person. It all makes sense in Joker’s twisted world. He wanted Rachel to die and to tear down Dent (the “best” of them). His goal was to prove that even the best can become “freaks.”

Batman saves Dent. . . but why? Didn’t he tell Gordon he was going after Rachel? I thought he did, and they never explanied this at all. I assume a Joker plot, but it was never explained, and I was a bit confused for a bit. . .which happens more than I’d like to admit.

My legs have seen sunlight for the first time in 14 years! the whiteness of them is reflecting a soft glow around my body as I walk down the streets. As a result, Ukrainian women are giving me a wide passage.

All right boys, no fighting.
I really enjoyed the movie, but I did find myself checking the time and wondering why the Joker was still blowing things up. I felt that the acting was great (and yes the bat voice is not my favorite). My ideal ending would have been right after the Joker killed Rachel/created Two Face. I felt like that moment had so much emotional weight and it was the peak of the action. So here’s my ending…Batman saves Dent, Rachel dies, Joker escapes, Batman catches Joker, Bruce visits Dent in hospital which leads into Two Face for the next film. Throw in some dramatic voiceover at the end and the movie is now about 45 minutes shorter. However, I did find the blowing up the hospital scene with Heath dressed in drag hilarious.

That is my initial reaction…but I’m going to see it again for a second look.

Just worry about getting sun on your legs. That big shiny thing in the sky is the sun, I know it’s crazy but vitamin D is good

There is a difference between Art Deco and Gothic architecture? I had no idea.

There is a difference between Deco and Gothic. I agree I would have liked to have seen that style we saw in Begins but in an interview with Nolan he talks about wanting a modern Gotham we can relate to. Begins was a typical comic book movie with the alternative reality and Dark Knight grounds you in ours.

Yeah, I believe Batman Begins had the fanciful Deco styled Metro lines running into Wane Tower. I enjoyed the slightly skewed reality they presented in that film and would have enjoyed seeing more of that in this film as well.
