Dent is Dead!!!

Yes… its official now!

The script of the movie The Dark Knight has been released, and in the ending scene (pg 163 in the document) the line reads:

Dent lies in the bottom of the hole, his neck broken. DEAD.

I was hoping this would not be the case… but still… there is still hope…
First of all this refers to Dent… a fine point would be that he is now two-face who might not be dead…. (even thoughhe is refered to as Dent all throughout the script)
Secondly it just says so in the script… the ending is still open… they have not confirmed his death.. 
If you are thinking, that a memorial is more than enough as a confirmation of his death, think carefully… What if Dent were not dead? Batman sacrifices his honor to preserve that of Dent… they couldnt have Dent walking about killing people… that would be counterproductive ;-) .. So even if Dent survived… a public memorial, and a private imprisonment would  be the only course…

So here’s the script read for yourself… and tell me what YOU think…

Cher as Catwoman

Although there have been a lot of unsubstantiated rumors about the direction of the third movie of the new Batman series…. This one sounds surprising enough to actually be true…

The 62 year old oscar winning actress seems to be Nolans first choice for catwoman! Well.. I can’t DARE complain… I mean.. when Heath Ledger was revealed as the choice for playing Joker, everyone was like… “whoha! $@# the guy who played the gay coyboy dude?” but we had some hope… but mostly faith after seeing the first film… but now having seen the second one.. I dont think anyonw has a smidgen of doubt that… Ledger was the perfect choice… that Nolan knows what he is doing…

In any case.. best not put too much weight into any such rumors… Only time will tell… But with probabily still 3 years to wait… it seems like tooo much time!

Catwoman and The Dark Knight

According to some sites… Angelina Jolie has signed on as the character of Catwoman!

Although this does not necessarily mean that the catwoman character will appear in The Dark Knight’s sequel…
According to the place where I read it, it is not clear whether it would be as Catwoman in the next film, or in a standalone film like the previous Catwoman movie (which is probably still on IMDB’s bottom 100 page!) …
Either way I believe this may be a good choice… With the huuuge flop of the last catwoman movie, it is quite unlikely that they are making a sequel / prequel / remake… so les see!

Uncomfortably Long Silences.. and Bats

Wow… that was an uncomfortably long online silence…

And for what? For something that transcends boundaries of blogs, and space and time, and movies, and tv, and internet, and like.. whatever…
I had to eat….

As you may well know… food is known to incite Epiphanies… as was my case…

I just realized… The Dark Knight is Fucking Brilliant!!!

I know what you’ll say… “WE KNOW THAT DICKWART!!”
But do you know that NO comic book movie adaptation has had a successful trilogy?
NOW couple that with my previous statement and add “Batman Begins was bloody Awesome!” and throw a big BUT in (I like big BUT’s and I cannot lie… by pain of death) and add what you just found out…

A+B-C*D @#%#$^#$^’

I’ll just spell it out for those of you who cant take a decent challenge…

“Batman Begins was bloody Awesome, The Dark Knight is Fucking Brilliant BUT NO comic book movie adaptation has had a successful trilogy?”

What does this mean? You leave it all up to me to interpret…

This means basically that with the highly successful first movie, a second movie that beat all the hype (beat it, burnt it, buried it and defecated on its remains), how impossible is the task now to out do the previous two? (hey that rhymes!!)

FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN’T SEEN THE MOVIE… STOP!!! DO NOT CONTINUE READING… INTENSE SPOILERS LIE AHEAD!!!

While I am still to actually review The Dark Knight… (my post about it being just a written thought) I am sure there is no doubt in your mind that the movie is difficult to outdo…
With a villain this successful it is difficult to build up the drama even further in a next film…

It is still unclear whether there even will be a third film… Most opening have been closed… there is no romantic angle as Rachael Dawes is dead… no emotional angle as Harvey Dent is apparently dead (I don’t mean he IS.. just that if there isn’t a third movie he might as well be)… Batman is an outcast… and what not…

Looking by past experience alone lets see…

Superman 1: Good Superman 2: Nice Superman 3: Tie a rope around my neck and drag me 10 miles through a boiling lava lake BAD
Spiderman 1:Lovely Spiderman 2: Awesome Spiderman 3: The closest one to break the curse… was a commercial success but a failure otherwise… it was poorly received by fans
Batman(Original): Good Batman Returns: Equally Good Batman Forever: Tear my eyeballs out PLEEEEASE! (I wont even mention the name of the fourth film titled batman and Robin)
X-Men 1: Amazing X-Men 2: Superb X-Men 3: Why???

For more info read my source material at …. Do we Need a Christopher Nolan Trilogy?

That is why I think there should be a third movie!!

NOW I fucking confused you didn’t I!!! Admit it!!

The reason is simple… They (The Nolan brothers) are the only ones capable of pulling it off!!
Now although he isn’t signed on for the 3rd movie… Who in their right mind would change it to someone else?
Unlike last time there is no direct pointer in this one as to who the villain may be for the next film…
which means that either it is very obvious… or not yet decided… or is going to be a surprise…

with various hints about the riddler… so far as there being a rumor of a deleted scene showing Reese’s hand picking up a photo of Bruce Wayne and putting a question mark on it…

There is also a hint about cats in the movie in a conversation between Fox and Wayne… But frankly I believe that the best villain would be our very own two-face… declared undead… I mean ‘not dead’!

So what do YOU think…

The Dark Knight – Movie Review – by marathi

and here we go….

Do you sometimes feel that the whole story spun to make way for the next one is just a build up??? well that is the case many times or rather most times with trilogies and quadrologies and pentologies (if there are such things) so on and so forth… but have you ever felt like all the story built up all the buzz created is like just a blip on the entire world map?

Wait no longer. I am sure you will feel like this when you go to watch this movie in the theater (that is if you have not seen it already (more than once)).

The producers pull all stops at this film and show us that perfection is not just in the hands of the gods, but also in their hands. Never has a movie with a super hero with cape and tights been this convincing. Every aspect of the movie, be it the script, the cinematography, the action, the performances by the actors is just perfect. Not a second in the movie makes you wince, forget wince, even blink. Trust us you don’t want to miss anything on screen once the movie starts.

Be it the robbery scene with which the movie begins, or the chase with which it ends.

Batman’s nemesis the joker is shown to be a super duper demented madman who has simple tastes like dynamite, gasoline etc., and yes this joker is like the one who can give you a nightmare. Also very convincing performances from the rest of the cast. Bale brings out the sophistication and style out of Bruce Wayne with ease. Maggie Gyllenhal is also a good replacement for Katie Holmes.

Basically, if you miss this one in the theater, you regret for the rest of your every waking moment.

The Dark Knight

This is not just a movie…..

Movies just…. move….

This is a Frockie….. cause this Fucking Rocks….

This is the first…. lets just call it ‘movie’ for old times sake…

This is the first movie I had the pleasure of seeing on the first day… second show though… and i’d catch the night show too if I could… if I had saved some damn money!!!

If you can, see it in IMAX… I will if possible…

The MOOOOOOOST disappointing thing I found about this movie was…. well… THE THEATER WASN’T FUCKING FULL… (and the moron next to me had come calls to take… I mean seriously could you book the hooker after the movie is done?)

I actually went an hour in advance to watch the movie, and I still wasn’t sure i’d get a ticket… I missed the first 2 minutes of movie… but that had come out as a preview a looong time back…

The Joker was brilliant… seriously one of the best performances in the history of cinema!… if he doesn’t win an Oscar for this, then the awards are a fucking joke… and a bad one at that…

Two-Face was gruesome… Just goes to show how far they are willing to go for realism… If he is indeed the villain in the next film to come… they’d better give the puke bags free with every popcorn and coke! ;-)

A Batman more human than ever, a Joker that would make Hitler pee his pants, and have osama crying like a little girl in his shelter (he probably already is), a 2face soo gruesome they actually lower the pH of you stomach acids (good for digestion), and a plot as solid as a titanium kevlar bi-weave… So what can we expect from the sequel…
Only Better…

Even God HAS to be astounded by how something so random he created has somehow managed to coalesce itself into something so remarkably brilliant!

If you don’t give it a 10 on IMDB, i’d recommend you go through at least 3 years of psychotherapy… and a plastic surgeon for the scars I leave on your face…

So go… stop reading this fucking blog… go book your tickets for the next show, and the one after that… cause I can promise you… you wont want to leave the theater…
