Just saw it last night and loved it. Wow. It makes those earlier Batman movies just embarrassing by comparison.
But a few questions and comments:
1) What happened to the "Narrows," both in story and visually? This looked much more like Chicago, less like the Gotham of Batman Begins. The separation of criminals/dregs of society and the rich was much less in this movie. I was more surprised by the lack of visual aspects, the contrast of two sides of the city, even with the introduction of mob storyline.
2) So did Batman effectively kill Harvey Dent at the end of the movie? Is this why he will be on the run? Was this the becoming of the Dark Knight aspect?
- Dark Knight = his nickname. Possibly b/c half the citizens hate him. They explained why he ran at the end of the movie.Jaline
- I'm not explaining this very well. Batman has always been a "dark" character. He's a hero, but also an anti-hero.Jaline
- Harvey had to be seen as the hero so that spirits among Gotham were not broken. So Batman took the blame.Jaline
- Since he already had people hating him (as well as many fans) whereas Harvey just had fans.Jaline
- I think. It's more complicated :)Jaline
- actually, batman quit his job as batman at the end.********
- and harvey will return in TDK returns********
- He didn't quit. He just allowed himself to get more haters.Jaline
- no, he quit. thats why all is gone in his HQ.********
- and he will return in The Dark Knight Returns because Joker or/and 2face are fucking up gotham.********
- He's the knight, or hero they need, because he does what is noble. Which was take the fall for everything to keep Harvey much needed reputation intact for the citizens.ETM
- much needed reputation intact for the citizens to hold on to and keep hope. Undo what Joker tried.ETM
- digdre.. did you actually pay attention to the movie? he didn't quit.brains
- did i even watch it. thats the question.********
