Yeah another spoiler:

If there's another Batman movie coming, it'll be about TwoFace... Anyone remember the old movies with him in it? I think the first one with Robin is the one with TwoFace.

i've heard that Christian Bale will ditch Batman if they try to introduce Robin

Wait... Dent's not dead?! He fell off the thing! Looked pretty dead.

And Batman could still blame Joker. HE'S A NUTPATH, for Christ's sake, killing some more people is hardly going to ruin his image.

RW: Miller's Crossing. Awesome. Better than TDK.

They foreshadowed how you can survive that kind of fall when batman throws the gangster off the fire escape and the gangster survives with only two broken legs to show after the fall.

I honestly think that you are over thinking this. Was it foreshadowing? Or was it Batman just being cool?

There are two different occasions of someone being thrown off of a two story level in the same movie when the two criminals could've been done away with in two entirely different ways. Yet the director/writer chose to do the exact same scene twice. As an ex-literature major, I say it is foreshadowing.

I still think you are over thinking it. It's Batman for christsake, not shakespeare.

It's Christopher Nolan for christsake, not Micheal Bay.

@Noodles: The Wrestler looks awesome as does The Road with Viggo Mortenson. I wish I wasn't lazy; I'd look up who directed The Wrestler. I think it is someone of importance.

I guess you got me there.

yeah seeing as how Christopher Nolan has written a movie where the scenes go backwards i don't think it's wrong to really look into what he writes

it was Darren Aronofsky, who did Requiem for a Dream/The Fountain. The Road looks amazing too although it seems like it will be delayed quite a bit.

Clearing this whole shebang up: The actor, Eckhart, and Nolan have gone on record saying Dent was dead.

oh

calling it a dumb summer action movie is still daft though

i watched two new episodes of The Office last night and it made me sad how soap opera-y it is now. i mean they milked the Jim and Pam crush for the first two seasons and it was hilarious, now they've got this whole twisted web of relationships and they've almost stopped making jokes. i mean sure it's cute that Michael found someone with the same sense of humour as him, but now his character is like autopilot and doesn't say funny stuff anymore :(

As Good as it Gets - really cheesy, but witty and energetic enough to make it tasty cheese. also Helen Hunt has hawt boobs. Jack Nicholson's character reminded me of Johnny Depp's from The Libertine except more cute and cuddly

You didn't know he was dead for sure either.

Oh yeah, Darren Aronofsky. Should be interesting to see him make a temporally normal movie with nothing that ridiculous going on like in Requiem, Pi or Fountain.

yeah he didn't write it so i'd imagine that it'll be a lot simpler than his other movies. it's got a 39-0 score on rottentomatoes :O

And Bruce Springsteen has made a song for the soundtrack. Awesome.

The comicbook fanboy in me is now eagerly awaiting next summer. I just watched the trailers for:

XMEN Origins: Wolverine (That looks fantastic) and Terminator Salvation.
