*POLL* Anyone NOT buying TDK? - Blu-ray Forum

Blu-Ron · 11-19-2008, 03:31 PM

Everyone seems to think this was the best movie since Gawd knows what. I was curious to see the number of people who only see this movie as a pass or possible rental.

Have fun with it.

mikejet · 11-19-2008, 03:32 PM

I am not not buying it. Double negative FTW!

Mr. HiDef · 11-19-2008, 03:33 PM

Well I am going to pick this movie up but deff didnt think it was anything special compared to the past batman movies

NovaBomb · 11-19-2008, 03:36 PM

I'll buy it.... but not on day 1

The Dark Knight is the greatest movie ever created. Anybody who does not pick this movie up within the 24 hours it is released has something wrong with them. The Dark Knight redefined cinema, with its deep storytelling and characters. Nobody has ever seen anything like this before and it is an absolute must purchase. Heath Ledger gave a better performance as the Joker than any other actor could have possibly done EVAR!!! In fact his character is considered by many to be the greatest movie character ever created, due to his complex nature. Christopher Nolan will surely cast Johnny Depp as The Riddler and Phillip Seymore Hoffman as Penguin in the much anticiapted sequel.

I know I am in the minority, but I will not rush to buy this. I will probably buy it at some point, but I'm not as excited about this as I was for Batman Begins.

mikejet · 11-19-2008, 03:41 PM

I would get this day one but I don't live in Canada so I have to wait.

ascian · 11-19-2008, 03:45 PM

If you don't know how to spell, don't dish out long diatribes like that. Consider it a favor both to us, and yourself. While TDK was an amazing film, it was far from "THE BEST FILM EVAR". Still, I didn't realize that not buying this movie was even an option.

AikonEnt · 11-19-2008, 03:47 PM

Definite day 1 for me. Plus I've not actually seen it yet (just waited for the Blu) so my expectation are fairly high after what the majority of people have said about it.

I voted the lame poll option simply because there was not a "Defintely buying it,but not on day one" option.
Seems the poll left out all the people who, while think the movie is a keeper,aren't gonna rush out on day 1 to get it.
I think it's one of the best movies I've seen,but I don't buy anything on day one.

Teabaggins · 11-19-2008, 03:52 PM

I was not planning on it but if I don't get it on release day through netflix then I MIGHT buy it....because if you miss it on the first day with netflix then plan on waiting for a while

MacDaddyOJack · 11-19-2008, 03:57 PM

I am not buying it but I have made sure that my GF knows the exact day that it comes out so she can get it for me for Christmas!

Since someone else is buying it for me, I had to choose the last option on the poll
