  6. I can never tell, she's a little kooky, even by MY standards

    I like how it's set in today's society, where people are increasingly individualistic and consumerism is rampant, and people don't believe in anything.

    And so you see what happens when the few good men like Batman, Harvey Dent and Commissioner Gordon, have to fight crime when they can't trust no one, not even their own police officers.

    Because the citizens of Gotham 'are only as good as their circumstances allow them to be' and no one is willing to stand up to do the right thing, which results in catastrophic consequences like how Rachel and Harvey are abducted by Gordon's cops and delivered to the Joker. Which begs the question is it worth Batman's effort to save people such as these?

    Ain't that the truth

  10. Actually, she's one of the preppy "popular" kids, so maybe she's normal and I'm really really crazy
    Oooh, now they're deciding which ship to blow up, some great scenes coming up

  11. And the answer is:
    Only time will tell


  12. Yeah, people who watch the Dark Knight all too often don't realise that it's criticising modern society, (much like AB, Zoorop and Pop did).

    I love how all the cops & citizens love Batman, until the Joker starts killing cops. Then they become all too willing to give into the demands of a terrorist, and sacrifice a hero, so that they can save their own skins.

    The movie is truly epic in scope. I love the ending, have you watched it before Katherine?
