Comments on: 10 Lame Excuses For Missing THE DARK KNIGHT This Weekend http://blog.spout.com/2008/07/18/top-10-lamest-excuses-for-not-seeing-the-dark-knight-this-weekend/ Daily coverage of what is truly interesting in the film world Sat, 28 Nov 2009 02:20:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Sleepy Puppy http://blog.spout.com/2008/07/18/top-10-lamest-excuses-for-not-seeing-the-dark-knight-this-weekend/#comment-109412 Sleepy Puppy Mon, 04 Aug 2008 14:49:19 +0000 http://blog.spout.com/?p=3398#comment-109412 The Dark Knight was a great movie.....to sleep through.....Once again the hype never lives up to the real thing. All of these people saying it was so good. It really wasn't. Very uneven throughout. The transitions were choppy and the special effects looked like....well special effects. They should pull you into the movie and make you think they are real. They didn't. It was like watch this... Heath Ledger was okay, but certainly not worthy of an Oscar nomination. This movie was a big disappointment. It was way too predictable. If you need a good nap, then this is the movie for you, because it certainly did not have much to keep you awake. Scale of 1-10 this movie gets a weak 5 The Dark Knight was a great movie…..to sleep through…..Once again the hype never lives up to the real thing. All of these people saying it was so good.

The only vital part that I guess would be missing is anger and the propensity to do evil. Val Kilmer would never do wrong. Ever.

I was quite shocked, but obviously I couldn't show it for fear of seeming like a total asshole.

I used to love sold-out movies and sometimes I still do (like if they're at Alamo Drafthouse), but for most movies these days, I'd rather just wait a week or two until the audience is smaller and potentially less disruptive. And then we don't have to get there so early and sit through all the dumb loud commercials, either. Damn, I'm turning into such an old fart. How about, “We hate big noisy opening-weekend crowds”?
