I think Two Face would have played better if we had seen the deformed half of his face only at night.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you that CGI wasn't needed here either and I think directors are still learning when andRobert A Vollrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724748212110046882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223381214429555801.post-40999619511630151372008-07-23T09:25:00.000-07:002008-07-23T09:25:00.000-07:00Steve: I guess my thought is that the graphic nove...Steve: I guess my thought is that the graphic novels don't have such pandering moments attempting to get laughs. They make the world dark and take you through it.<BR/><BR/>That's not to say there weren't well-earned laughs, mostly with the Joker. <BR/><BR/>On a similar note, No Country For Old Men was very dark but also hilarious with very few moments that didn't feel natural to the story.<BR/>Jonathan Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116936634679088265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223381214429555801.post-1235191973720602782008-07-23T09:12:00.000-07:002008-07-23T09:12:00.000-07:00I like this movie but I could have done without th...I like this movie but I could have done without the Batmobile saying goodbye before it blew up.<BR/><BR/>This movie isn't my favorite movie but it is my favorite super hero movie. With that said a thing I hated about both Batman Begins and The Dark Knight was killing the realism with cheesy CGI. In The Dark Knight we get cell phone sonar that gives Batman a poor man's Daredevil vision.<BR/><BR/>Robert A Vollrathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03724748212110046882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223381214429555801.post-3697812418853090622008-07-23T08:23:00.000-07:002008-07-23T08:23:00.000-07:00All right, you knew I was going to have some thoug...All right, you knew I was going to have some thoughts on the movie I'd awaited for three years. Agree with your points about the plot semi-hole (no way could they have tallied up the votes that quickly) and the behavior on the ferries being a bit contrived. That might've made more sense from a dramatic standpoint if you'd read "The Killing Joke," by Alan Moore (creator of Watchmen), which Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-223381214429555801.post-1657027791262319482008-07-22T08:33:00.000-07:002008-07-22T08:33:00.000-07:00That's a good point.
