Apparently, as many readers have pointed out to me, I was horrendously wrong about Hancock. A homeless superhero somehow did not entertain. Maybe the smell of crusted-cheesy-hobo emanated from the movie screen, but I believe that if I grant The Dark Knight a rating lower than 4, it will cause even more anxiety. One noteworthy aspect of this movie is how they swapped a questionably “hot” girl (Katie Holmes) for another questionably “hot” girl (Maggie Gyllenhaal). I know the new series of Batman movies are suppose to be all deep and “complex” but is it necessary to force people to reevaluate their hot meters? Seriously man, it’s going to make me start dishing out 9’s to Kristen Dunst and 5’s to Sandra Oh and then oh no, look what happens, humans have stopped selectively mating and then civilization ends cause we’re all now a bunch of stupid ugly gimps…
5, the Joker (Heath Ledger, R.I.P. gee thanks MARY KATE) is super scary and this is also to make up for Hancock.

I can’t wait to see this film, the thing The Joker says in the preview: “lets put a smile on that face” and then the creepy laugh. Love that.
Comment by kaboose84 July 14, 2008 @ 1:24 ami still wish Katie Holmes had stayed on board as Rachel Dawes for the Dark Knight; it was like the time spent getting familiar with her character in Batman Begins was wasted…
