I went out with Atiqah last night and we watched The Dark Knight. I don't really fancy Batman but I wanted to watch it because of Heath Ledger. I've heard from casts and directors that he was a great Joker, that he was really crazy and is a out of the world Joker, that he was made for that role. I didn't watch for Christian Bale. But yeah I had to agree with Atiqah that he was kinda hot after watching him for 2.5 hours.
It was quite a star studded cast with Maggie Gylenhaal, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman, Aaron Eackhart, and Gary Oldman (AKA Sirius Black). I knew there was something uncannily familliar with Lieutenant Gordon.
Heath Ledger was really scary as Joker. He was wild and so unexpected. I had to sometimes cover my eyes because I was scared that he would do something bad and cruel and just Joker-ish.
"Why so serious? Lets put a smile on that face!"
Everytime he said that, my heart beats for his captive.
Tomorrow Batman Begins will be on Channel 5 and I am looking forward to that. The Dark Knight got me hooked.
