two down one to go.

Watched The Dark Knight yesterday. And it was good.

Two things ... Wait. Three things.

1. Why didn't Katie play the role again? I feel like maybe I heard a reason way back when but didn't pay attention because well, didn't care.

2. I really like how Dent/Two-Face still had the most perfect teeth even after the hideous accident.

3. The worst part / the scariest part was when they (his family) were told that Gordon was dead and then he comes strolling in at the end. I would kill him.


Okay, in a few hours I shall be seeing The Dark Knight Rises.

MG was great. But her higher skill level exposed how woefully underwritten Rachel was as a character. :/

I loved John Blake! Then I've had this crush on JGL since his Third Rock From the Sun days ... :) Wonderful character, though, and so happy at how they used him. And it's been bugging me for two weeks, but that's exactly who Tom Hardy sounded like when using the Bane voice! When I read your comment, I was like, "that's it! That's who it sounded like!" Some of his line delivery, now that I have a reference, reminds me of him dropping dialogue Bond films.

She was! I could see MG did good with what she had to work with but she was just really underwritten (maybe that's why I don't like the first as much?)

I LOVED what they did with Blake (and ditto on JGL, I loved him in 3rd Rock, Brick and Inception) I think he executed the material so good (I was spoiled for that plot point but not the other) and still loved how it played out. I think that's why it was so satisfying this time (for me anyway). And, yes, I leaned over to my sister and told her about Sean Connery from the get go and kept imagining Hardy-Bane as Bond and could not stop laughing on the way home.
