Walkinbird_seeks BatcaveEntry #601842
Enjoying my own cleverness, I've decided to immortalize the handle which I temporarily placed up on the day (today) which I finally saw The Dark Knight. So, having noted more a numb feeling than the generally male Testosterone-enriched exhuburance that most have expressed, I have already speculated that the special features on the future DVD release will please me more. There are just a few details that drew me out of what was a very layered (and maybe too much so) story. I suspect a few details in a deleted scene or two may assist me in eventually admitting admiration alongside enjoyment of a few hours killed in frosty theater-box comfort.

The only feature that stands out in my mind right now is special effects ranging from vertical flip of a big rig and trailer to Two-Face "makeup" which was very likely computer improved, but so magnificent and believable. Aaron Eckhart's Harvey Dent character has the most transforming to go through. Christian Bale's Batman is static with an bump of development toward the end. And Heath Ledger's Joker had to come into it crazy, so his homework was complete long before the cameras rolled.

I also enjoyed the editor's of Director of photography's call on Joker's final scene. While Joker is snared and hanging upside-down monologuing like crazy over Batman's faults, I found it functionally correct to have his topsy-turvy self shown in an upright alignment.
