Just saw The Dark Knight...
... and was totally blown away. I'm planning an A+ review... Saw it on IMAX too. It was sold out and we had to wait in a long line to get into the theatre. (We'd bought our tickets a week ago online.) It was like waiting in line for an amusement park ride. In my review I plan to focus on the theme in the film of Batman being representative of authoritarianism and the Joker being anarchy.

David - I *wish we had an IMAX theater close by. That's what I get for living in the sticks of Michigan. :-)
I did feel like The Joker represented the anarchy of our times. Last week, I interviewed Chin Han, who plays Lau in the movie, and he said essentially the same thing, that this was a Joker for the current state of the world.
