The Dark Knight (possible spoilers)

One thing I've been mulling over is the issue of Oscars. If you look at how ratings and number of viewers have fallen over the years, you've gotta agree with the prediction that Heath will at the very least, get nominated. With so many people feeling so passionate about his performance and the movie as a whole, you'd get a whole lot of people watching the Oscars who otherwise wouldn't really care.

Okay my first post but I have read around these forums for a while and dont take it easy I have got hard skin.

I would like to say that this is my own view and would like people to repect it as I will try () to repect your views and your comments.

I would like to get some people to try and open my eyes or maybe I can open yours.

How do The Godfather and Shawshank rate so high ???

I found that both movie had been often too predictable for me .



Two shared some big plot holes.

Now I know I can here some screams but hear me out I am not trying to put this films down as I really enjoyed both of them as there is great cast,great writing and great music .I rate them very highly and dont want to seem disrepectful toward there fans but I would only rate them on par with a modern film today such as Gone baby gone.(maybe not a great director but for everything else A1)

When I read imdb I find myself thinking that some people really hate to see TDK doing really well I on the other hand love to see Christopher Nolan on top.When a couple of decades go by he will be talk in the breath as Scorsese,Hitchcock,Coppola,Polanski and ford are just some of the top 50 I could name .

I must say that some of the insults that I have read are doing it's website no favours .I read one comment that said if you enjoyed this you would never enjoy a real movie such as NCFOM or there will be blood .I watch hunreds of movies a year and I really enjoy anything by the Ceon brother's (NCFOM BRILLANT)and really loved There will be blood (Daniel Day Lewis second ever finest role to My left foot).

I know I 'am babbling but I would finally want to make a point I really dont enjoy comic movies (I didnt even like Batman Begins)but I loved this masterpiece and may all of the success it is getting be reflected on that imdb.

I really just want you all angry and confused the whole time.

I think The Dark Knight probably does have some conservative messages to it, sure, but it's a good deal more nuanced than the straight-up allegory you seem to be suggesting. Also, I should point out that, even if Batman is meant to invoke Bush on some level, he's an admittedly flawed hero, so even if we accept these comparisons, I don't know that that would make it a pro-conservative movie. Maybe conservative-curious.

Came past these life-life Joker figurines, I think pretty impressive.
There selling them here, along with other Dark Knight models.
