I just watched The Dark Knight at Warren Theatre this afternoon. I don't have much to say than to repeat what other reviews have been saying all weekend: This movie is AWESOME. A++++. It belongs to the list of best movies of ALL TIME, joining up the big boys such as Godfather, Pulp Fiction, The Shawshank Redemption and other classics that are timeless. And considering that this is a comic movie, it says a lot.
I know that Ledger's death magnified people's interest to this movie by multiple fold. If he were still alive today, I'm sure the movie would have not been as successful as it is now. It certainly will be a solid blockbuster, but it won't be as close as of today. I felt that Warner Bros capitalizes his death to hype the movie whether it is intentional or not.
