  • Man, I was waiting for someone to come to that same conclusion about the Rachel Dawes character as I felt the exact same way about her. I just couldn't wrap my mind around her reasoning about not being with Bruce when she winds up being with Harvey who's job is just as dangerous " If you're not getting shot at, you're not doing your job right" she says... Bitch, Bruce gets shot at all the time!!!

  • I personally thought, in regards to the hospital scene, that the Joker probably offed anybody who saw him setting the bombs.

    Agreed with the Hong Kong point, though. The movie's still as awesome as it was two years ago. :D

  • well about the hospital, the joker could have easily gotten some thugs to go in there and plant them in the hospital for him dressed as painters or electicians or something but yeah i didnt mean to nitpick haha

  • me too see the movie in Imax,awesome.......and taco bell is awesome too XD

  • i always thought the mayor of gotham in this movie looked like gordan freeman from the half life series.

  • Spoony recommends Taco Bell :D

  • damn, I was kinda hoping you'd tear it a new one...oh well, it seems i'm the only person who disliked it.

  • m8 seriously, finish your meal and then do a review.

  • Here was my thought process. How did he get that many explosives in the hospital in such short notice? Because he's just that damn good.

  • Amazing how nerds are so impressed by the Joker. "Oh noes, he commited a crime! Best. Movie. Evar."

  • Could have finished your kebab first! Now I want a kebab... lol

    Good review. It really is an awesome movie and one of my all time favourites. Its so good that you can forgive how the Joker seems to know how things will pan out precisley (if they wern't so precise his plans wouldn't have worked.)

  • JEW!

  • HELL YEAH GRILLED STUFT BURRITO!!!

  • A very nice review, although that "Joker looked rather fetching in the nurses outfit" comment kinda creeped me out.

  • I liked mark hamil as the joker a little more

  • @joshmonster94 yeah i agree but hes to old to be an actor, but he does the voice really well.

  • wait can he win an oscar if hes dead... no offence

  • STOP eating in your reviews! You're making me hungry....

    P.S. the thing I didn't like about the Dark Knight is that there was no blood, even if someone got shot 15 times! Personally I don't like seeing gore and guts, but c'mon!

  • dude stop eating on tape.

  • @teacherteacher23 if you were getting paid to eat on camera, youd do it too :P

  • the problem i had with "batman begins" was it took like an hour to tell you bruce wayne was going to be batman i mean we know that already just get on with the fucking story. but "dark knight" on the other hand they didn't waste an hour or so telling you alfred was a butler or something Lol

  • damnit now im hungry >> grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr XD

  • all jokers are good but the one in the 80s and this 1 are my favorite

  • Spoony liked TDK. The number of internet critics, that can be trusted is declining by the hour. I liked it too the first time I saw it, so I can't blame him. It does have that faux-epic feeling, that becomes annoying once you watch it again and as the disguise wears off, you begin to see what a contrived, self-important mess The Dark Knight really is. Ledger was enjoyable, the film was not.

  • Don't talk with your mouthful.

    Also "too many hyperboles"?

  • I still prefer the Mark Hamill Joker.

  • Oh Yeah I agree. Mark Hamill Kicks ASS.

  • he liked maggie as the puppet from saw XD

  • im german and yeah look i can speak english

  • I liked nicholson joker cuz he's creepy and funny.

    But admit it guys, Ledger really took the joker to the next level that I couldn't fathom he would turn out to be. I shit my pants everytime he does his spine-tingling monologues.

    especially the hostage scene and the interrogation scene,

    "LOOK AT ME!"

  • dark knight - very good, although no-one seems to notice 60% of it is just people talking. On an intelligent note, though, they did make it much darker and bring it back to its roots, which was good, CGI was good and acting was brilliant, but does anyone notice THE AMOUNT OF TALKING.

  • i agree.

    there was a hell of alot of talking, and some of it was just pointless and self explanitary

  • That Taco Bell looks like it tastes good.

  • One possible reason is that he had his minions rig the bombs. No one man can pull off that kind of strategy without having help. Remember he has mafia-like influence, even more so than the mafia, since even they can't stop him.

    It's like the bank scenario, he had guys carrying out his orders, because he obviously can't rob the bank just by himself.

  • ur right and he was smart enough to tell them to kill each other so there would just be himself and the guy bringing his transportation which he was going to kill so he was the only person to get some money.

  • yes it did bruce wayne and the other chars r the seriousness, the joker was the comedy because of his wity jokes that seem to be said at just the right moment.

  • i thought the same the girl of Batman was a bad choise yep!

  • i was impressed batman beginns was also good only bad thing was Batmans voice whats like a bad cold. Heath ledger was damn fine made another way to act the Joker even i liked Jack Nicholson in his version. Why did they all chased the Batman in the End dont get it this was a minus point too.

  • You forgot to complain about Batman's voice- overdone and annoying! Other than that, not bad. Needed better score and Heath was no comparison to Jack Nicholson no matter what anyone says! Ha.

  • Wonder if he is still has Taco Bell as his sponcer. lol.

  • Lol hes always fucking eating or drinking when he makes videos lol,love it :D

  • dark knight was good on first viewing but now im seeing it as extremely overrated...I wish it got better on repeated viewings but in my opinion the movie is extremely flawed & to be honest I know most of you wont agree but I didn't think the Joker (heath ledger) accurately presented a true comic book portrayal as nicholsen did with his Joker.

  • LOL , the only movie that works with cosplay is 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show'.

    But then again , Rocky Horror fucking invented cosplay XD

  • Comment removed

  • Extremely overrated movie.

  • i did not like it, i couldnt follow it, the joker died in one of the batman films before the dark knight, it makes no sence

  • The last two Batman movies are reboots of the story. That's why the Joker is in it. Not going from the previouse movies.

  • the darkknight is still shit anyway

  • Plus, they kill off Harvey Dent. It's like getting rid of the people he fights.

  • Unfortunately this is not a comic book so they won't be doing stupid things like having the dead come back to life or walk out of the asylum as soon as they are put back in.

  • Yeah, that's true.

    Sucks in a way, because you waited all movie for Two/Face and he was Two/Face for like maybe ten minutes of the movie. Then gets killed off.

  • But remember that is 10 minutes of high quality twoface who leaves everything to chance instead of that two minds about everything garbage.

  • I know, this version is the best. That is why I am sota dissapointed that he wasn't in it longer.

  • I agree that she was a huge improvement, but it's true that Maggie isn't the most beautiful girl, but I think that the character in itself covered for whatever lack of beauty she had. I like her cheeks however lol

  • The Title of this vid should have been "The Dark Knight - Review-Sponsored by Taco Bell" ^_^

  • @AgentCarver Alot of his reviews seem sponsored. xD

  • if u thot the plot was impossible to follow then u r clearley retarded my 9 year old brother followed it well and he understands it people like your are assholes who overcomplicate the simplist shit, no one cares wut u think stfu

  • ALL plots can be dumbed down to something like that

  • i understand, the only off thing in it all was Gordans family, he didnt have a son, nor was his wife alive, and by the time the joker appears his daughter is a teen(AKA Batgirl)

  • taco bell

  • lol puppet from saw

  • The best movie. EVER!

  • Maggie made me miss Katie Holmes so badly....Katie is sweet,she's got class and had chemistry with Bale.Maggie is just a pornstar.

  • People working at the hospital must've been working with the Joker. That's the best reason I can think of on how the explosives got there.

  • or unless he or his so called "workers" planted the explosives there ahead of time maybe at night?

  • there are people in hospitals at night

  • I know but not as many as compared to the day.

  • not really

  • TACO'S RULE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lmao, the puppet from saw.

  • OMG TACO BELL FTW!

  • Dark Knight fucking rocks

  • Maggie was freakin' hot here!

  • Poor Maggie.

  • I thought begins was only a bit better, and it isn't just a bad mash up of action like critics say, dark knight was one of the only movies i liked that and casino royale.

  • Also, The Mayor? The actor who plays him is Persian and they have rather thick eyelashes especially at the base of the eye lashes and creates a look of eyeliner.

  • The Joker probably hid the explosives in medical equipment being shipped to the hospital.

  • ah he eating MacDonald breakfast burrito

  • DONT EVER STOP WHAT YOU DO!!!!

  • Is he eating a burrito

  • Wouldn't doubt it, he is having taco bell lol.

  • I love how he bombed the hospital the second time. I'm not going to ask how the Joker snuck the explosives into that building.

  • damnit now i want taco bell

  • I agree.. Rachel Dawes is an annoying frigging character.

    I swear.. even if Bruce Wayne had said "No, I'm really done with Batman and I'm really ready to move on, and I really really really don't need him in anymore..." and then burned the outfit in front of her... She'd have written another letter saying:

    "I need you to need Batman in your life. If Batman is no longer part of your life, then neither can I. But I will always be your friend..."

    Typical woman; always changing their story.

  • I asked my 10-year-old cousin if she saw this movie, and she said yes, and she liked it. I remember her saying "Finally, I see a movie with good action." She was also creeped out by the Joker, about his scars and stuff.

    I thought "The Dark Knight" was alright. Ledger did great at his character.

  • Haha Maggie as the doll from Saw lol that was a really low dis man! Awesome reviews!!!

  • I dont know why, but I left the cinema disappointed as hell. Sure, the movies that came after the two first Batman movies were really fucking bad although I did like Batman Begins.

    I guess that the hype got me turned off as well before even seeing this movie and thats probably why I felt like I did after seeing Dark Knight, but if people LOVE this movie then I'm fine with that and I can understand that.

    Good review as always!

  • I have to admit that The Dark Knight was one heck of a movie. It did have it's flaws, especially the car chase, but when you are intrigued with the characters and the story, yeah those things can be overlooked. :) As for me, I liked the actress who played Rachel Dawes in The Dark Knight than Batman Begins. Other than that, it was a great movie!!!

  • The pencil bit was hilarious XD The joker is awesome!

  • ...why does dent reconise joker in the hospital until he takes the mask off

    the white face and black eyes not enough

  • I think I agree with you on the whole cosplay thing. I don't think it makes the people that dress up any more fans than the people who have waited just as long to see it. If I don't want to dress up, that's a personal choice, but it doesn't make me less of a fan.

  • IMAX. Lucky bastard.

  • I wasnt supposed to say that,was I?

  • You dont need tons of explosives to destroy a hospital as long as you place them on the key structual spots.

  • oh, and about the little "plot hole" or whatever, about the hospital, it's simple, Joker has OTHER PEOPLE that will do stuff for him, he's got his little clowns that tried to help him capture Harvey Dent, rob the bank, etc. He's has somewhat "henchmen", trust it's possible, i mean it's the joker, plus he also had people hidden in the police force too, so it's quite possible he got people in the hospital as well.

  • ha. nail on the head. She was fucking fugly in this movie.

  • Someone is on LSD.

  • Imagine how dark they could make the fucking penguin. O_O

  • i love how u tear movies apart lol haha eg. hospital explosives thingy

  • This movie was great, I can't deny. I agree with Spoony on Academy Awards; they sometimes don't pick good people.

    I must, however, somewhat disagree with him on Maggie Gyllenhaal. While she did not look as good as she usually does, I didn't think that she was ugly. (I think it was because of the bags under her eyes, looking as if she were an insomniac.)

  • Another flaw, movie was great though I have it, I bet so many people know about this one, I kind of got mad about how Harvey turned into two face, because as everyone knows he was turned into two face by acid, but in this movie it was gasoline. Great that the girl died but come on that goes away from the comic.

  • The comics have several contradicting origins for Two-face in themselves, so there is no way to not go away from the comics in some way. And you should have guessed from the first one, but they're not trying to follow the comics exactly, hence why Ra's didn't have LAZARUS PITS to make him immortal. Instead it had the more realistic, but following the basic idea, hiding in plain sight behind a fake.

  • I dont get it?

  • I was a little disapointed that the joker thing seemed almost like a sub-plot, and that they used the 'Dent becomes 2 face' thing as the main story. That would have been fine if they hadnt told us 5 months prior to the films release that it was going to happen. For that reason, it was frankly beyond predictable, it was more as though you were just going through the motions by acually watching it.

  • Railed 3 strait time by men? What else would she get railed by, sheep?

  • mabey u dont now wht people whtch these days

  • fire sauce for the win!

  • taco bell......hmmmmm........

  • I agree. Fantastic portrayals, such psycological stuff. It was fantastic!

  • Um...Heath Ledgers dead...There won't be Oscar in it for him..

  • Quite a few people have been petitioning for him to get it post-death. Personally, I think he would have got it if he was alive, but it won't succeed now.

  • It's called a "posthumous" award. There have already been 2 oscar winners who were nominated after their deaths, plus non-winning nominees, as well as several dozen winners in the academy awards.

  • I was suspicious that everyone liked him only because he was dead, but he really was that good.

  • i know i pretty much stand alone when i say this but i thought that batman begins sucked

  • Nah...you are not alone..i definately agree!!

  • Ive never seen long money

  • "you would have to be dark to bang that shit"

    best dialog in the review

    also like how you eat in almost every rant

    really adds character! XD

  • Yeah, whenever the Joker in batman the animated series (voiced by Mark Hamel) set up all these intricate plots planning very every contingency or funneling the actions of the people trying to stop him, he's either got an IQ of over 9000 or he just knows batman really well. As for the explosives, I don't think it would be too complicated. A few dozen Barrels of fuel with bombs under them.

  • howcome you're eating stuff in many of your movies? i like the casual effect it gives, but this kind of review, is it just something you sit down and ad-lib?

  • he can make a pencil disapear

  • Haha cool review, yeah, why the fuck was the mayor wearing eyeliner? This movie kicked ass!

  • the joker blowing up the hospital part,... he's got thugs

  • Also he is a master at predicting that actions of "normal" people, that he is able to be two steps ahead. That is one of the most creepy things. He is completely insane, and yet he knows more about you then you do.

  • I FUCKING loved that movie it was awesome as Hell

  • this is the internet.

    manners are nonexistant.

  • You win, biggest fag ever. Wanna know how? You go around youtube, talking smack about someone, who i'm quite sure is older, and more mature than you. Actually, scratch that, i'm absolutley sure. He doesen't make the lamest attacks ever. Like "You live with your mom. hahahahaha"

  • Hey finaly someone agrees with me! I wasent sure if it was just my taste about women but dam... I think Bruce/Batman is about 20-30 years old, but he would have crush on MUTCH MORE OLDER WOMAN. I mean realy, when i saw her in conan o'brian show, she was pretty and stuff... Whatta fuck?

  • wow, u think right in every movie 0_0

  • HOLY SHIT! you were absolutely DEAD-ON about maggie gyllenhaal in the Dark Knight. its crazy how utterly sexy she is in the other movies she's been in but how unattractive she is in THIS one. maybe they figured since they were going to kill her off anyway that it wasn't important if she was attractive or not.....cuz in that movie she wasn't even CUTE.

  • I really liked the Joker in Dark Knight. I was laughing at the"Darker" parts. I really like the guy who played the Joker he was AWESOME!!!!

  • You mean, Heath Ledger (R.I.P. poor Heath). Another one of our (Australian) children's gone. :(

  • The Dark Knight is the best superhero movie ever!!!!!!!

  • mmmm taco bell........om gonna go go get three supreme tacos!!!!!

  • i loved this movie

  • I liked the pencil magic scene. That guy got owned =O

  • As one of the haters of Batman Begins, feel I have to say that I fuckin' LOVED The Dark Knight.

    The two most common complaints I've heard? Too long, and too much story going on at once. And you know what? I think both of those complaints are a bunch of shit.

    My complaints: Rachel Dawes (in general), the Tumbler (I hate that fuckin' thing), Christian Bale's Batman voice, and Two-Face's story was kinda weak.

    Other than that, though, it was fuckin' fantastic, especially Heath Ledger's Joker.

  • what the hell do you think Batman should sound like? Do you want him to talk in his normal voice like Michael Keaton? i wouldnt b scared if he just asked me in a whisper where his friends are. he wants to scare people and he needs a deep voice. and fuck u, Batman Begins was fucking incredible.

  • His voice sucked. he sound liked he needed a cough drop.

  • my only complaint with the movie is batmans voice.I couldt understand half the things he was saying.

  • I thought the fight scenes were good. Nothing unclear about them.

  • watching you eat made me hungry >_>

  • Hahaha Butt Fugly

  • your not the only one. im hungry now

  • god i want taco bell so fucking badly now

  • i so agree

  • Funny thing about planning ahead now that I think about it... The Joker clearly must have, yet he professes to dislike plans. His whole point is to be spontaneous and introduce chaos to Gotham.

  • spoony is the best!

  • Hey wanna see a magic trick?
