Tommy Lee Jones' Two Face just flipped the coin and acted on its results, he didn't keep calling it, which I think made it very annoying.

Ok if you remember..tommy lee jones as two face did rely on heads or tails from the coin...and theres even a part in the movie where he sits and keeps flipping the coin over and over until it lands on what he wanted it on.
And the way he died was batman throws a bag of coins when he flips his coin..he cant figure out which is his and falls into that pit...which i thought that was cheesy...and if you also remember...harvey dent was in batman and was played by billy dee williams...then later played as tommy lee jones..which was also cheesy...

So your just a hater...but money talks..and looks like dark knight has got alot to say

I agree, i don't think we've seen the last of Two-Face.

GreenScar · 07-20-2008, 01:13 AM

Well, they could take it either way. I personally would love to see Two Face again.

tommyboy81 · 07-20-2008, 01:16 AM

He just happen to have a bag full of coins in his Bat suit. What were they for. Toll bridges? lol

Terrence Howard's character becomes War Machine, which is why when he looks at the MKII armor he says "Next time, baby."

WHAT! Didn't look or sound like it to me. I must have been on that stuff like that guy was on that the Scarecrow gave him.

Well I had to go on imdb and I guess I was wrong. SOB!

I saw it this afternoon and it is a fantastic movie. Ironman was good but The Dark Knight is far above it is the best Batman movie to date. You have to love the Pencil Trick.

MistyMorn · 07-20-2008, 01:38 AM

... to describe what an experience The Dark Knight was for me. Totally awesome is as close as I can come for now. 10/10 Saw it at the IMAX and the sound rocked

The scenes shot in IMAX were breathtaking. The entire cast was brilliant, the directing was perfect and unlike some who felt it was too long, I could have watched another two hours. I want to watch it again and it is definitely a must own on Blu.

GreenScar · 07-20-2008, 01:41 AM

One thing I thought lacked were some of the moments where there were no score. When Batman was on the Bat cycle (or what ever it's called) and he was trying to catch up, I snapped out of the moment wondering where the score was. Very minor I know; it's hard to nit pick something this good.

cj-kent · 07-20-2008, 01:43 AM

The best movie I've seen in at least three years.

By the way, score is a tricky thing and I think they handled it wonderfully.

I wish they didn't have the score through the whole Bat-Mobile/Pod chase scene. Made it more intence without it

Kryptron · 07-20-2008, 02:06 AM

I loved the score, Hans Zimmer and James Newton Howard nailed it.
