Well, i know a few ppl that don't like TDK, mainly because it long an they don't like comics! But yeah, it is rare, on here anyway! Man, i loved the TDK, its not as good as WATCHMEN but the TDK is a AWESOME movie! Infact most of what WARNER BROTHERS do now thats comic book is! Damn, i do go on don't i? Heh heh. ; )

FIGHT CLUB, CLASSIC!

Oh yeah nice promos!!!

Dont get me wrong, i think TDK might be a tad over rated, but its still a brilliant movie, theres no denying that.

Fight Club is class, and like theAnswer, i cant hear that song without thinking of those buildings coming down!

Watchmen better than TDK? Serious?

I thought watchmen was pony, nice to look at but bored me. Only person not to like TDK that I know is my missus....then again she doesnt like any comic book movie so thats standard.

I agree with LEEE, I enjoyed Watchmen more so than Dark Knight, both were great, but Watchmen gave me more what I was looking for. TDK however did seem to drag on, especially the boat scene with the bomb, honestly I didn't care much for that part.

Oh and I hated the Rachel replacement.
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 8:25 AM
After Holmes, they could have easily went with Kate Bosworth for Rachel... but no, they had to go with someone i'd choose Rose McGowan over, to go to bed. Can i even vomit more than this?!?!?!? I'm gonna need massive surgery to reinstate my vital organs!!!

I get what you're saying and i agree Kratos, we wouldn't have minded the blue penis if it was on a chick.

I know people who don't read comics that thought TDK was brilliant and thats because it was. I have not seen Watchmen so I am not going to make a comparison but I skill enjoying watching TDK. I finally got an ipod and I was finally able to retrieve the digital copy and put it on there. I can now enjoy it at work when it is slow.

It was a giant blue CG penis.

It made me feel inadequate.
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 9:46 AM
"Inadequate" is the term you use to describe the tingly feeling you had in your pants???

Hey Ror, he probably just wants to be "different" and that's why he "doesn't" like The Dark Knight.

I only want a penis on a chick if it's mine.
DarkAvengers

Perfect track for these promos.
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 9:58 AM
Uatu... you'd donate your wrench??? Way to take one for the team dude :P

I started reading this thread thinking about the Pixies and "Where is My Mind"... Now the only song I hear in my head is "Detachable Penis".
Thanks guys, thanks a lot!

@ Shaman: It never moved. I swear.

Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 10:31 AM
You gotta admit adamant, it has a good "beat" to it LMFAO!!! :P

Jester- Riiiiiiiiiiight. I'll just pretend that you enjoyed the movie for Malin's tits... like i pretend i did as well... :P
TheJester
TheJester - 6/9/2009, 10:44 AM
was it, or was it not circumcised....

It seemed it was rather ambiguous....

This is important.

Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 10:52 AM
I honestly think it was a CGI made circumcised penis by men who obviously weren't circumcised or else they would have figured out that the damn knob is SUPPOSED TO BE A DARKER SHADE OF BLUUUUUEEE!!!!! *pant, pant, pant* Sorry... *pant, pant*
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 6/9/2009, 11:02 AM
@kratos6...I have to say, i find it hilarious that a dude could be so emotionally immature that the sight of a penis..a [frick]ing cgi penis at that freaks him out in any way. Is a cock! We all have one in case you didnt notice! What, are you afraid Dr M was going to jump out of the movie and violate you with his massive dong!
SpiderBat209
SpiderBat209 - 6/9/2009, 11:07 AM
I LOVE TDK and WATCHMEN equally! BOTH are excellent, and ground-breaking! IMO :)

I LOVE Watchmen mainly cause of how unconfortable it made people in the theater! LOL I could hear women gasp and giggle, everytime Dr. M's Blue Schlong appeared on screen. The dudes all were like "WTF?" LMAO!

I ESPECIALLY liked how uncomfortable it made the audience when NIGHT OWL was plowing away on SILK SPECTRE! That "Love Scene" went on for like 5-10 minutes! LOL

I heard a woman tell her Dude:"No wonder you wanted to see this so Bad!" LMAO :D

I wish I could quote what I said at the time that made the people in the row behind me burst into laughter, but I know there's a limit to the "potty-talk" on here.

Best Movie-going experience in long time, though! :)
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 11:17 AM
Rorschach01- Yeah, that did pop my bubble. Brought my 3D glasses for nothin!!! *throws glasses, breaks a vase*

Who the [frick] lasts for 5-10 minutes anyway.. honestly!!!
adamant877
adamant877 - 6/9/2009, 11:21 AM
SpiderMan209: Totally agree, they were both EQUALLY as good, but for different reasons. Dark Knight was compelling, dark, cerebral, and visceral... Watchmen was compelling, dark, cere... wait a minute!? jk

All kidding aside, they were both equally bad-ass. I loved both films. I have a particular fondness for Snyder, though. I hope that man does PLENTY more comic-to-film properties in his career! Watchment was visually one of the most stunning films EVER!
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 11:44 AM
So was 300, that man has a knack for quality. Of course Noob would argue LOL :P Been a long time since i've seen ol'squidish :)

Yeah, whatever. Notice that the 13th is actually Saturday, not Friday.
Shaman
Shaman - 6/9/2009, 12:44 PM
Oh god!!!! I can't believe there's actually someone with a Uma "ugly as fart" Thurman avatar on here!!! Here goes the massive surgery again to reinstate my vital organs after i projectile vomit them on the wall!!!
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 6/9/2009, 12:55 PM
Oooh surely you jest sir! She hasnt got the prettiest face in the world but she has a KILLER body. I would destroy her i must say.
ThunderCougarFalconBird
ThunderCougarFalconBird - 6/9/2009, 12:57 PM
Shaman - PoisonIvy5 has every right to have Uma as her avatar. But yes, her face does look like a foot.
MarkCassidy
MarkCassidy - 6/9/2009, 12:59 PM
Just for you Shaman!

Stumblin
Stumblin - 6/9/2009, 1:08 PM
Yeah, it cracks me up how people like Kratos6 hated the movie on the shear fact it was "boring" which that is just an opinion, I was entertained the entire time. If you read the book, you must have been bored out of your mind with all those words.

Also, the fact that a blue CGI penis made you want to leave the theater. Maybe it's because I went to an art school and had to draw naked dudes and chicks for four months that the nude human body doesn't effect me, unless it's a hot ass chick of course. (I'm not stone you know) Honestly, it's a mature movie for a mature audience.

I look forward to any of Snyder's movies, he has yet to disappoint me.
