Dark Knight Take 2

Published by jl at 7:24 pm under Main Page

Here I am, adding to all the hype of the record setting Dark Knight.  When it first came out, I settled for watching it in a normal theater.  After waiting for weeks, we finally scored tickets for the lone IMAX theater in Manhattan. (On a side note, I can’t imagine the wonders IMAX has done for Fandango’s bottomline)  By golly Batman, it was worth it! My comparison between the two versions is like watching standard definition versus high def, once tasting the good stuff, you can’t ever go back. Being the time troll that I am, I’d never justify watching the same flick twice for the sheer pleasure of eye candy. Nevertheless, I won’t get into how amazing were all the aspects of the movie, since so many people have done so already, and much more eloquently. What I will say though, is that don’t wait to catch this movie on the plane or on DVD. Treat yourself to the local IMAX theater and enjoy the best superhero / supervillain movie of the year.
