Have to agree with the chucklers. I've seen the movie twice and I still laugh everytime his voice goes 'over the top'. Pulls me right out of the experience.

Like the film a lot, but still enjoyed both Wall-E and Iron Man more. Batman is just a little too bleak and violent for my tastes. TDK would be just 'good' without Heath as the Joker, and deep down we all know that's why it's made so much money. The Joker ROCKS. Too bad we will never know how much it would have made without the death happening... at the midnight show I went to, the theater was packed with girls, which is almost unheard of for a midnight showing of a superhero film... and guess who every single one of them was chattering about? Our society is messed up...
 
Bat's voice didn't bother me one bit and I would never have even given it a second though if I hadn't read it here.:dunno
 
My wife and I mocked the voice as soon as we left the theater. A great film, but the voice did distract a tad. Its just a bit too over the top.
 
Over the top is the premise of this whole film. Augmenting it visually and aurally just adds to the whole theatrical experience.

Ok. Next film I hope they throw in a few showtunes and add to the "whole theatrical experience."

Just curious and completely serious...

what part/(s) did Joker ROCK?!?

I mean his scenes were some of the most violent in the film, or are you refering to Batman's character?

For all the futility and fan-boys out here, I'm just taking the opportunity to research the Venus mind and the rare occasion that many, many Females enjoyed Dark Knight, perhaps as much as Mama Mia!:naughty

Something I've never understood, and makes no sense is when people say stuff like "without Heath's performance it would just be okay."

That's like saying "well if you guys didn't score more points than us we would have won." No ^^^^, but we did.

If Iron Man didn't have Robert Downey Jr.'s performance it would suck. No ^^^^, really.

If The Incredible Hulk was written better it wouldn't have sucked. No ^^^^, really.

If The Mummy 3 were never made it would have been a better movie. No ^^^^, really.
 
I would have loved the film just as much if Heath had lived. And the voice never bothered me. Being a fellow Kurgan, I don't normally go against Shai... but, I don't get the TDK negativity. Yeah, there are a lot of blind love fanboys of the film... and it's justified... I just don't get the hate. Any self respecting LONG time Batman fan would love this film. And that is only if you have long loved the character from the comics, not the films, and it also helps if you like the edge Frank Miller brought to it. TDK is damn near my favorite film of all time, I can comfortably say that. To me it ranks right up there with Raiders, Star Wars, Jaws and Halloween at the very peak of my cinematic love.

It has nothing to do with Heath dying, and a LOT more with the fact that they got Batman right and moreover... that they NAILED The Joker's character. Not to mention that it's the best Gordon we have ever had, the best Two Face, and a super hero film that the hero in question DOESN'T save the girl. It's everything I wanted it to be and more, and it has nothing to do with the hype.

Throw rocks at me, crucify me if you will... I will never back down from that belief.
 
I think all those extra points come from a whole cast of collaboration, not the least of which was Aaron Eckhart. I mean, I knew I would like Christian Bale, Morgan Friedman and Gary Oldman, but Maggie G.(she makes herself seem unattainable even to Bruce. Thats choosey!) and Eric Roberts were suprises. Hell, TDK had ZEUS!!!! WWF reprasent yo!
