Alright so I've decided to change this blog to fit more of a purpose, instead of just describing my day. This blog will now be a movie review/sports analysis blog. Yeah, yeah, I know, like the millions out there, but as a fat, white, suburban college student who loves beer, I know a little about both.
So with a bang...
The Dark Knight.
Holy shit, was this movie phenomenal. Not even a joke, guys. If you haven't already blown a cinematic load in the hair of the guy sitting in front of you, or keyboard, whichever; go see this fucking movie. You'll hear a shitload about how fucking awesome Heath Ledger was, and how Christian Bale was an awesome Batman, and how his voice was weird, and it was a little long; blah blah blah.
I'm going to give you a reason I've heard from no one else. Two-Face. Even if Heath Ledger never existed, and the Joker was permanently in "Here's Johnny" mode, this movie would've been fantastic just because of Aaron Eckhart.
For those who've seen Thank You For Smoking, Aaron Eckhart can play the not-so-good guy roles. That's exactly what Two-Face is in Dark Knight. Harvey Two-Face is a man who was becomes who he is for understandable, albeit unrealistic, circumstances. In order not to give too much away, go into this movie expecting the unexpected. Leave no stone unturned when taking it all in, and the fanboys will love this movie. Look for the coin.
All-in-all, Dark Knight was a 9.8/10. Ten minutes could've been shaved off the side, and there was little resolution for many characters (you'll see what I mean). But those are very minuscle complaints literally finely-combed from an otherwise extravagant movie going experience. Oscar nomination anyone?
