    I went in thinking the same thing. I had seen a lot of other Ledger movies and while his performances were pretty decent, they weren't anything to write home about. His portrayal of The Joker though was simply amazing.

    Bournemouth as in Bournemouth in Dorset?

    The film's only a 12A. Bloody surprised it got such a low rating though.

    *yawn*

    Saw it yesterday.
    I didn't liek how batman was talking (SPOILER)all deep and stuff. :catsmile:
    Ok, I know he's suppose to do that but it made me giggle every time he said something.

    I loved Heath's performance but Jack Nicholson played the joker as he's seen in the comics.

    I liked the movie, didn't love it though.

    I did love that one scene where (SPOILER)the Joker's sitting next to Harvey in the hospital in a nurse oufit! Lulz! He's so cute!

    Saw it again and I was wrong about two things before1) I thought that, when Two Face fell, his eyes were open, that being a large factor in me believing he was really dead. Re-watching it, his only eye that had an eyelid was not open. OoooOOoooOoo...!

    2) I thought that Harvey had knocked over the oil drum on purpose to try and drink the oil and kill himself so Rachel could be saved. The angle of the shot confused me. I guess he just fell and was smushed to the ground. I didn't like when they turned the camera when Joker was hanging upside down either. Flipping the angles like that makes me dizzy.

    I loved Batman's voice and hated the look of Two-Face; Two-Face wasn't very impressive, anyway. Why is Christian Bale so cool? I can't stop thinking about how cool he is in The Dark Knight. =O

    Yeah, that was the main reason I loved Ledger's performance. The Joker before was just a cartoon character, nothing serious, I used to think Batman was kinda lame because The Joker was his archnemesis. Ledger just completely crushed any preconceived notions of a cartoony Joker and made him into a serious, frightening, twisted character.
    What you have to remember is that the batman comics had A LOT of different artists. The first batman had a very dark and twisted joker (i think?) and also later when Frank Miller drew some.

    As for the movie, only just saw it yesterday but damn!!! Best comic book film ive ever seen! There are so many great comic book films lately though. Sin City, 300, Iron Man, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, spiderman can suck my balls.

    Heath was just amazing. So sad to see him go, and not just for this role.

    For the record, I never liked Nicholson's The Joker, I thought it was pretty awful, and I think im not alone.
    Danny Elfmans tune definitely was better, but wouldnt fit with Nolan's take on Batman.

    According to IMDB, Jake Gyllenhaal was also considered for the role as Harvey Dent......
