The line is massive already. I got here 2 hours early and I'm roughly 100 people from the front, and that's just my line. There are four other sold out midnight showings in this theatre.

I'm flatter and all, but you don't need to skip work and school. I can deal the pain to everyone online as normal, LOL.

Four lines for Batman....four lines of victims, I mean nerds, I mean fanboys, LOL.

I hope the movie was good. I have to admit I'm a bit bewilder why so many are so hot on this movie. I understood Star Wars movies 1, 2, and 3. And I went opening day on 1 (I wasn't planning on it, one of my friends got enough tickets to give me the oppportunity), and the previous Batman series movies with Micheal Keaton and Danny Devito.

Nonetheless, I hope you had a good time. Let us know your impressions without give spoilers.

I can understand it!

First off, Batman Begins succeeded in the greatest recreation of a comic superhero EVER.

Secondly, The preview of The Dark Knight alone is enough to make me feel like I've seen an Emmy Award winning movie.


I can't wait!!! I'm seeing it at 8:30 tonight!

Two words: Heath Ledger

His portrayal of the Joker has been talked about as Oscar-worthy. I''m going to see it either Monday or Tuesday(I hate crowds), and I can barely wait.

So, Ep, was it good or great?

How old are your kids, Mad Bryan? This movie is dark. I mean really dark. I wouldn't want to bring my 10 year old to see it. (Not that I have a ten year-old, but my imaginary kid). There's very little humor and it pulls no punches. I'd see it myself first and then make the call.

Consider this an R-rated film.

I'm still blown-away by the movie.

I'm taking off work early so I can watch Batman Begins before dinner, and then The Dark Knight after!

I'm a little too excited...

Epyon, would you mind elaborating on this? I've heard that it's very dark with violence obviously, but not much language, sexuality, etc. My son is what I would call a very mature 10 year old, and he's extremely excited about this movie. He's seen Batman Begins, and we were thinking about catching it at the Imax.

I'd appreciate any input; thanks!
