Christopher Nolan's *THE DARK KNIGHT (2008)* [MOVIE REACTION] Was Perfect In Every Way!

[@grantheming1975]

To this day stands as one of the greatest comic book films of all time. Really fascinating that when the hospital was supposed to blow up that Heath Ledger improvised his turning around and still trying to blow it up. RIP to the legend!! Hope you enjoy the 3rd movie!

[@bitterzombie]

Im glad you recognized that Harvey had a trick coin, and never intended on harming the joker's lackey. Its actually a really important detail. It shows that Dent always had a dark side that comes out when he feels powerless. He was just so accustomed to hiding and controlling that darkness that he only ever used it as a threat, he never felt the need to go "outside the system" to impose what he thinks is "fair", but when he loses Rachel, he feels that his ideals of justice were somehow wrong or incomplete, which is why he failed. That's what drives him off the deep end. He wants to kill the Joker, but that means crossing the moral line that he set down for himself, and it wouldnt fix anything either. He has survivor's guilt, he is suicidal when he is in the hospital which is why he is refusing treatment. The Joker understands that, so he presents Harvey with a very simplified version of his own perspective so it will resonate with him. He is basically telling Harvey that he can hate himself for failing, or hate the Joker for succeeding, but he should really hate the rest of the world for dumping their responsibilities on him, making him into a martyr to pay for their own weakness. That's why it resonates with Harvey, the Joker actually understands even if he is just using that knowledge to manipulate him. The fact that he gives Harvey the gun & tells him to let chaos & order decide, shows us that he isnt just saying that to be compelling, it is genuinely what he believes & how he views the world. He truly believes himself to be a victim of society who is just getting revenge, enjoying the "fun" that he's been denied. He relates to people who society labels "freaks", which is why he is willing to show this vulnerablity & reveal his motivations only to batman, and to Harvey after his "transformation". He frames this same perspective to Harvey as society denying him real "justice", which in the absence of his ethics & ideals manifests as the "dark" side of the coin that he has always denied or "repressed". Heath Ledger always gets honored for his acting, as he should, but Aaron Eckhart also does a phenomenal job showing both the heights & lows of this (arguably bipolar) character, it is a quick transformation but his great acting really sells it to the audience.

Lucius didn't resign btw. When he typed his name in the machine self destructed. So he's still there

SO MANY little details and stuff in this movie: 1) joker held the hammer cocked the whole time, so Harvey could NEVER had shot him 2) Heath Really took punches from Christain Bale in the face 3) the way joker grabbed rachel by the face was improvised thats why she looked away, sje was looking to the director and crew for help but they kept going 4) the joker news anchor scene was done without most of the crew knowing AND SO MUCH MORE

[@joegotstis2718]

The last 5 min the dark knight is cinematic perfection. Possibly the greatest end to a movie ever

[@kylewestlake982]

What's messed up is that the Joker told Batman the wrong adresses on purpose because he knew he was go for Rachel, not Dent. The Joker knew Batman would because he hurled himself out of a penthouse window to save her and let the Joker get away. And what's also sad is that when Rachel heard Batman saving Dent over the phone, she died believing Bruce had read the letter she left for him, and was so angry he was her for breaking the promise they made, he was choosing to let her die, not really knowing the Joker tricked him.

[@maximillianosaben]

Heath Ledger kept licking the sides of his mouth because the prosthetics for the scars would keep coming loose, so he did that to keep them in place. It became a great character tick. But the happy coincidence of it is that if you've ever had cuts on the edges of your mouth you really can't help but constantly lick at them.

[@glennwelsh9784]

Yes, they actually blew up the hospital IRL. They also flipped a real truck for that chase scene. Christoper Nolan likes to use practical effects as much as possible.

The crazy thing is that you can ACTUALLY SEE the hydraulic pump under the truck that is what actually flips it... If you watch it in slow motion you can literally see this HUGE ASS metal block fly up under the truck before it flies up in the air.

They were filming this during a comic book convention in Chicago, and during one of the DC panels they told us to be at a certain place in the convention center at a certain time in the morning. We got to the place on the morning and we were given a t shirt, and a note to be at a certain panel later that evening. When we got into that panel, it had Christoper Nolan, Aaron Eckhart, and Gary Oldman, and we were shown the first trailer with footage of Heath as Joker, and Aaron confirmed he was playing Two-Face. Best convention ever. The actor playing the mayor played a character named Batmanuel in the live action Tick series

[@jameswest35]

The 'hospital' was actually blown up. It was an old candy factory here in Chicago that was due for demolition.

[@lordmortarius538]

The Joker tells a different origin story each time because he tailors the story to who he's addressing, so that he can disturb them and also just to see their reaction. In The Killing Joke graphic novel, Joker says that "if I did have an origin story, I prefer it to be multiple choice"

[@johnvonreideriv8222]

My personal opinion about the Joker, and his motivations phenomenal job by Heath Ledger IMO, is that Alfred was closest to the mark in that "... some men just want to watch the world burn.". I knew someone when I was a child/growing up that, outside of a POW camp, had one of the roughest/tragic lives I have ever had the misfortune of knowing about (I learned about the truth of the situation well after the fact). Even more unfortunately the people responsible for his misery somehow managed to conceal it just enough that nothing was ever done. Eventually he got himself ended in a very violent and tragic circumstance. There is a good amount of truth to the saying that "hurt people, hurt people". I like that the movie didn't reveal the Joker's motivations. It's better to leave it up to the imaginations of the audience that way each of us is able to imagine the worst things that fit for us allowing the villian to be just that much worse for everyone. Some stories explain far too much and others far too little, I think this one found the perfect balance regarding the villian. Just my 2 cents worth though, really enjoyed yall's reaction to this masterpiece and am looking forward to the third of the series. Cheers!

[@theveryworstluck1894]

They really flipped that 18-wheeler. Nolan does practical affects whenever possible. Many movies have copied that truck flip scene after this

This is one of my favorite Batman movies aside from Batman (1989). It’s the best Batman movie Christopher Nolan ever directed, and one of the best Batman movies ever made. Truly peak bat-cinema.

[@HiTekCowboy]

100% agree

[@electriccherry3618]

Some fun facts: 1) The actor who plays Rachel never saw Heath in makeup or him acting as Joker on set, so at the charity scene when he crashes the party, she was genuinely in shock and fear. 2) Heath's scar makeup kept on falling off, so his tongue lick was to keep them on but it worked so well they didn't edit them out. 3) The old man who says "we will not be intimidated by thugs" during the charity scene was an active US Senator at the time that asked to be in the film because he was such a fan of Batman. 4) The hospital blow up scene was actually real, they used real explosives on a real building. Because of this, they only had one shot to shoot the scene. When Joker was walking away and the explosions randomly stopped, they really malfunctioned. Joker hitting the remote and confused was real but because that was what the Joker would have done in real life, plus they only had one chance at that scene, they kept it in.

[@slchance8839]

Its my opinion that the Joker custom-designs his origin story to terrify the person he's talking to. 1.)His origin was about a nightmarish father when talking to mobster Gambol, b/c, statistically, Gambol probably came from a fatherless broken home which helped direct him to a life of crime and in his heart of hearts Gambol would have liked to have a father. Moral of Joker's 1st story to the gangster: "fear your dreams., son" 2.)His origin about a woman robbed of her beauty which destroys her marriage was for Rachel, a woman beautiful enough to engage a good and important man. If she loses her beauty will her life be destroyed, too? If so, her beauty is her cage and time is her jailer. Moral of Joker's 2nd story to the engaged woman: "fear your dreams, pretty lady."

[@odiumgeneris729]

It doesn't matter how many times I watch it. The Dark Knight elevated both the genre of action movies and comic book movies. *Batman is the best character in comics.* Always was. His origin story, his silhouette (from an artist's perspective), his gallery of Rogues, his supporting characters to include the Gotham City Police department, the bat family, all of it. I am more of a Marvel guy, *but I have said for many years that the best of the (non-cosmic) Marvel universe is essentially riffs on the Batman formula.* This is controversial, but Batman is the Justice League's only _actual_ character. The rest of DC's Pantheon of heroes, is lovable as they are, are archetypes. Not characters. DC's villains tend to be characters that mess with the archetypal heroes. That's why we all love DC's villains. Since Marvel characters are actually characters, you don't even need villains in marvel. A lot of the times, one Marvel hero is another Marvel hero's villain!

This version of the Joker, is so relatable, if you’ve been through pain in your life. Just as with every hero and villain story, they’re usually two sides of the same coin…they just chose two different paths to deal with the pain. Joker wanted destruction and Batman wanted goodness. Most of us, end up choosing a path closer to the Joker than to Batman; It’s why he’s the hero…someone who we’ll never actually be, but wish we were. The Boat Scene Notice that the civilians actually voted to blow up the criminals’ boat… The only difference between convicted criminals and civilians is… Civilians are just criminals who haven’t been caught yet.

[@animatorFan74]

With Joker, he explained his motivation to Harvey in the hospital - he sees all the "good" people (or people we consider as good) succeeding in Gotham, but even they have their own agendas and those "good" people aren't really all that good - So his motivation is to show Gotham and all the powerful people that just because you've got an agenda, it doesn't make you good... agendas and plans don't make you a good person. Take away the plan and the agenda and let's see how "good" you really are! I suspect in his past that some authority figure or father figure DID mess him up and DID do some nasty things to him and this is him "sticking it to the man" to show them how corrupt they are. Also with that scene where Joker blows up the hospital - where he seems to be having issues with the detonator and he has to hit it a few times - that was 100% for real. On the day of shooting the scene, that detonator malfunctioned and it delayed the explosion which is why he looked confused. The explosion malfunctioned and went off late and it worked so well so they left it in the movie.

No, this time it's not a lie. He genuinely wanted those people to kill each other, to go down to his level. Whoever come out of that "social experiment" alive, would've been people who have murder another to save themselves. He fought for Gotham's soul, not just killing people.

[@notmee2388]

@@SatrioWibisono-o3m Maybe, but he also said he was an agent of chaos, which could imply a situation where you agonize over choices which in the end don’t make a difference and any control you think you have is an illusion, which is a way of sullying Gotham’s soul, because there can be no moral choices in such a framework. (Kind of like voting, but that’s another argument) But even if you were right, because he is known to be unreliable, you couldn’t trust him, which also makes the choice meaningless, which is still chaos. For all they knew, it could be a 💣 on a timer, and the “trigger” was an off switch. And even that, like we saw at the hospital when his trigger initially malfunctioned, could be unreliable and not work, meaning the Joker wouldn’t even be guaranteed to know if it worked. True chaos, since even he couldn’t know that his own control/controller would work.

[@CollideFan1]

Heath Ledger was a method actor, he really got into the character even when off set. To prep himself for the role he secluded himself in a motel room for several weeks and went deep into the psychology of the Joker character. His lip smacking was because the prosthetics for his face or the face paint, don't remember which, irritated his skin. But he kept at it because it was a trademark feature to his Joker. This Joker really is an agent to chaos, he just wanted to see the world burn. Heath was perfect for this role, I thought no one could top Jack Nicholson's version, but Heath did it.

It's more than just wanting to preserve the symbol. The reason Batman took the fall for Harvey Dent is because if they knew Harvey Dent was going around committing murders they would've freed all of the criminals that were arrested and prosecuted as a result of Harvey Dent and they would all have to be retried in the courts in a corrupt city. Also I watched CyberChase all the time as a kid on PBS. I always hated math but I loved that show. 🙂

First time I saw this, when it came out, I thought it was brilliant. As time went by and ppl were talking more and more about it I thought it sounded a bit overrated and over hyped. Then I watched it again some years later and..no..it is still brilliant and worth all the hype!
