Dark Knight already looks like a blockbuster based on pre-sales

I doubt it 7th. I'm going to be seeing it at the IMAX - I can't wait!

I doubt it will bomb. It's not often that Time, EW, etc. give an action movie a decent rating, plus all the Oscar talk for Ledger before it's even released. But then again, what do critics know?

I just rewatched Batman Begins the other night and forgot how damn good the storytelling was in that one. Now, let's just cross our fingers that the studio execs don't screw with Nolan's vision going into Part 3 in the same way they did with Spider-Man, or else we're going to have Robin and Batgirl all over again...

I know i intend on seeing it.

Everyone wants to see it...i wonder if it'll be a big disappointment.

I sure hope not, 'cause i'm actually pretty psyched up to see it too.

Same here. A must see. Combine the critics buzz about Heath's phenomenal performance with a morbid fascination people have with the dead and you can't lose. I can't remember the last time a movie was this hot before release.

I remember having to stand in a line for a few hours to see the first X-Men. I'm sure this will be the same way and 20 times better.

I hope they would make only Batman movies and not include Robin or Batgirl. Last time that happen, it was to embarassing to watch.

These numbers seem right, tried buying IMAX tickets for it 3 weeks ago (NYC) and all sold out from Thursday-Monday, all showings except 2 am

The prologue made it even more enticing for me personally. Thank goodness they decided to clean up this series. After the first one, they were just ridiculous.

I'm all for this movie don't get me wrong. But I refuse to wait hours in line like a ride at disneyland and then be crammed in a packed theater for ANY movie. Ill go see it a week after and avoid the mobscene.

looks like a great movie but I think that im going to wait a week or so to see it. I hate big crowds of people

I must say that I was able to go to a prescreening of this film, and I hate to ruin it but Heath Ledger dies in the end.

Thanks for ruining it c1c.

I agree that's Heath Ledger's passing has probably added to the lure of this film.

I won't be fighting crowds to see it though. I'll wait a week.

I will wait to go see it. I hate crowded ppl, last time I watched "Hancock" on the opening night (11 pm), fudging ppl behind me and my buddies just keep on talking jack, did not stop through out the movie, making fun of Jet Li how he said Fearless was his last movie and he is making The Mummy, i was so about to turn around and yell at them and said "Jet li said that he is making his last movie for himself! He is just going to be Co working with other star u fudging jack arse!, get ur source straight!" but i didnt, but they were making fun of the movie thorugh out, and this is one reason why i would not go on a opening night, because no one knows how to appreciate to be quiet at the movie theatre.

If you don't want to fight big crowds, go to a theater that has assigned seating, then you can walk in at the last minute and get a good seat ;)

I will wait for the Bluray and watch on my 1080p projector.

No big noisy crowds.

This will sell huge numbers on bluray and so will Iron Man.

The BluRay of dark Knight will have the IMax sequences.

Saw it yesterday, It did not disappoint. Not in the least. The commercials used everything out of context and made a thrilling bit of TV, but the clips had an entirely different meaning within the film. Most movies do this I guess.
