    Do you wanna know how I got these scars? My father was a drinker, and a fiend. And one night, he goes off crazier than usual. Mommy gets the kitchen knife to defend herself. He doesn't like that. Not. One. Bit. So, me watching, he takes the knife to her, laughing while he does it. He turns to me, and he says, "Why so serious?" He comes at me with the knife. "Why so SERIOUS?!" He sticks the blade in my mouth-"Let's put a smile on that face!" Aaaand... Why so serious?

    Let’s be real, Heath Ledger as the Joker is what made the dark knight such an incredible movie and his performance as the joker is some of the greatest acting we’ve ever seen on the screen! Ledger is my favorite live action version of the Joker and The Dark Knight is my favorite Batman movie of all time.

    The Dark Knight is probably my favorite film of all time. I love Nolan, and this and Inception are some of my favorite movies of all time. The positives are endless. Everything about this film works. However, no movie is perfect. If I could give one negative, the love triangle could have been more well executed, but still a very good movie. 10/10, go out and buy it and watch it.

      eating sugar no papa No, it’s absolutely spectacular. Maybe it didn’t resonate with you or you just didn’t find yourself enjoying it as much as others, that’s fine. It’s your opinion and you’re entitled to it. But objectively, it is beyond amazing. Like he said, it is a near perfect film with an amazing plot, amazing characters, amazing philosophy and views on morality. Also, the execution is flawless. The practical effects are insane, the score is exhilarating, the makeup is iconic and the minimal CGI (mainly Two-Face’s face) looks great.
      Edit: I forgot to mention the acting. Oldman’s great, Cain’s great, Gyllenhaal’s great, Bale’s great. But Eckhart and Ledger are just absolutely incredible.

      Cecil Abbott Performances on Ledger’s level can’t really be compared to one another. Let’s be honest, his performance was perfect in every way and other roles like that aren’t better or worse. It’s just chalks down to personal preference and things like impact on the industry, the quality of the film itself and improv, character traits, etc. But since the Joker is an amazing character in an amazing film, I’d say Heath Ledger’s Joker is the cream of the crop.

    Not to argue against you or anything but when you talked about Joker’s plan to involve conveniences, that was the point. This Joker was always just winging it. Especially because in a lot of situations in the movie, doesn’t matter what the result is, he still “won”.

    I do agree with most of the negatives but the harvey plotline was exactly what it needed to be for this film to work. they painted him out to be the most well respected DA which is exactly what the city needed. however he was easily corrupted, which played in perfectly to the jokers plan (even though he said hes not a guy with a plan). at the end of the day the joker knew he couldnt win it with a fist fight, he won it by truly breaking batman, he broke harvey, he broke the city. true infinty war style villain wins it in the end. best movie of all time.

    Sean bro u forgot to point out how the beginning staging scenes after the bank heist is just weak & boring with bad sound mixing, also the plot isn't all engaging like most make it out to be, in a way we can say had it not been for the morally complexity narrative & a powerful supervillain, this movie would've become Nolan's weakest batman movie. Also batman getting overshadowed & him being so lean & the fighting techniques not being convincing were just not working for me as somebody who expects this to be like the BATMAN: THE ANIMATED SERIES.
    The sound mixing of this movie with the excessive expositions is just downright bad.

    Harvey dents madness was already foreshadowed when he was torturing the Arkham prisoner after he saw Rachel Dawes tag on him.

    I think the argument that there are too many coincidences that need to happen to fit Joker's plan is fair; however, I think the film does a good job at addressing this in the scene where Joker tells Harvey that he isn't a schemer and simply plays with the hands he is dealt. To me, I think that the Joker didn't need everything to happen a certain way, I think that his actions would adapt to whatever it needed to. If Batman saved Rachel instead of Dent, I think he would have adapted his actions to make that work for him. So I don't think he is planning for all these events to happen, rather he is adapting to whatever does happen.

Was stupid to choose Clooney. Heath ledger as the joker was phenomenal. So sad he left this world so soon. Literally the best villain in movie history was Heath. Nobody can top that performance. Yes I’ll be 29 on the 30th and the dark knight is my favorite movie of all time. Over all the hundreds probably thousands of movies I’ve seen this is by far the one I can watch over and over again and repeat my favorite lines and just enjoy it from beginning to end.

    The Joker came to the fundraiser to find Harvey Dent. He kept asking people whether they knew where he was. Then, later on, The Joker says in the interrogation sequence that when Batman jumped out the window to save Rachel, he actually thought that Batman WAS Harvey Dent. So he had no reason to hold those people hostage, since his motivation for being there was finding Harvey, who he thought, jumped out the window. So I think there was no reason for The Joker to remain at the fundraiser.
    That's what I understood from the movie. Obviously I could be wrong, so if you have a different approach on this, please let me know.

This is what makes the scene in the final fight where the people don't blow each other up so good. The people, the cops, Batman, and the mob were playing Joker's game the whole time and Joker was winning. However, you can see the look of "Oh shoot" on Joker's face when there's no explosion. The people had said "No!", and Joker lost his hold over them.

    5. TDK
    Many of you would now wanna kill me but I can't speak for The Dark Knight as good as may people . I think, that this film is overrated. It has a Joker that is played in a groundbreaking, way and Ledger's Joker is the best character, Nolan ever made, but in my opinion, that's all of the film, which makes it unique. There are some interesting plot lines about anarchy, chaos and manipulation of people, but it wasn't told good enough to make it into a master piece. We never see, how the characters get from the one place to the other place, which is conscious storytelling, but still makes it surfacive. Also, the third act didn't handle the Harvey-Dent-Character very well and didn't really give us a good conclusion to the battle between the Joker and Batman. Therefore, I would probably rank BB better than TDK.

    This movie is a masterpiece. In my opinion one of the greatest movies of all time. The brilliance of Joker’s plots, acting performances, it’s all so seamless. I was never bored for a minute and it just is so intense and exhilarating

    I have to agree when you talk about the film going from full screen to wide screen. That’s always been very distracting to me and it’s very annoying. But the movies is amazing!
