knottslover77 Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 I predict The Dark Knight will gross about 75 million this weekend. It will take the number 1 spot in history for the biggest 2nd weekend ever. --Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knottslover77 Posted July 25, 2008 Share Posted July 25, 2008 Highest grossing movie in 7 days of wide release. 1) The Dark Knight $238,615,211 2)Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest $196,019,502 The Dark Knight crushed the record by over 40 million. Can you say WOW!!! --Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRapidsNerd Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Think Nolan would let us cast? lol I like your thinking, but God help us all. Still, I wouldn't say no to the idea. As for Catwoman, Gretchen Mol (Notorious Bettie Page) would be an interesting choice. They might even be able to put a little Rock-A-Billy spin on the premise. Dita Von Tease would be another unique pin-up choice. Von Tease does have a strong presence and a sultry sophistication/elegance. Mol would do well for facial expressions and body movements (ala Betty) and has a solid presence. Either lady could do quite well. Ahh, but there is a third option. Our very own witty and creative Diablo Cody. She could add just the right amount of humor and 'tude (two of her strong points) to the role. She also has a good presence. Yes folks it's another addition of "Fantasy Movie Casting". Dubious casting couch sold separately. Rising, but nieve starlets not included. Back to topic, for those who haven't, go see The Dark Knight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucket Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I finally got around to seeing "The Dark Knight" and I must say I was very impressed. Heath Ledger was truly an astounding actor. His laugh, his walk, and that creepy tongue flicker... he was so credible as the Joker. Absolutely brilliant, spot-on performance. Christian Bale was also amazing. Finally, a PERFECT Batman. I don't know what it is about him, but he nailed the role as Bruce Wayne. I can't rave enough about how wonderful this movie was... it exceeded my expectations and more. For the second sequel, I've heard that the villain will be both Catwoman and the Penguin. There are talks with Christina Ricci or Kate Beckinsale to play the role of the Catwoman. If the next film is anywhere near as good as the Dark Knight, I'll be waiting in line for the midnight showing when it comes out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knottslover77 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Dark Knight just became only the 29th movie to make over $300 million domestically. Broke the 2nd weekend record with 75.5.. so my prediction was right. --Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpengeist04 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 ^It's well deserved. I think I'll go and see it again next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 I went and saw it again this morning. Loved it even more the second time around. Friday, I took a couple of pictures of a few places you guys might recognize from the film. I'll try and take some more this week on my lunch breaks.

mcjaco Posted July 28, 2008 Author Share Posted July 28, 2008 I'm glad I went back to see it again. And I think I might go one more time. The second time through I got to catch all the plot points, rather than trying to absorb the whole thing at once. I'll try and get some pics later this week. I've got two or three random PTR's I want to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dammie16@vt.edu Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 So here is some food for thought. Rolan wanted the third movie to be a compilation of all the major villains of the movies plus some. Scarecrow - Alive Joker - Alive Two-Face - Plausibly alive (Put into a secret cell to keep the public unaware maybe) and Ras al Gul. Now that sounds weird but according to the comics he goes into a Hole of meditation or something like that, and this hole makes him immortal. Well I thought nothing of it b/c they were based on a realism BUT I just watched Begins again and I noticed something I missed the last few times. Right before the monorail derails, he shuts his eyes and seems to be calming himself as if meditating. It could be nothing and of course with Ledger R'ing I.P. the super league of villains might be a caput idea but maybe not. 4 returning villains plus 2 new villains. Could be interesting!

I sure hope they don't do that. Spiderman 3 anybody? All you need is one strong villain, and you're set! How many villains did spiderman 2 have? Batman? Fantastic Four...wait, bad example.

Bucket Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 3 villains just seems too much and reminds be of Batman & Robin (Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, and Bane). I totally agree. They should stick to a villain and develop his character very well instead of having 3 villains who are there solely for the sake of having more action. However, if Christopher Nolan does return as director for the second Batman sequel (he'd be crazy not to!) and if the script is as solid as the Dark Knight and Batman: Begins, I have faith that he'll make another great movie, even if he does decide to cast three or more villains.

mcjaco Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 CNN has an article on Bale yesterday. He said he's in for a third if Nolan is. I guess that's good news. Although it's still too early. My parents saw the movie yesterday and loved it. My Mom was excited because someone she works with someone that was an extra, and was actually in the movie. With a speaking part!

socalMAN123 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 ^ Long Halloween really did give some good plot points and explained some good parts of Dark Knight. I really enjoy reading it, one of the best graphic novels I've read. ---Brent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
