 Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) When all reviews are in, expect something like 90% and 8/10 at RT and around 84 at MC.

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) Ebert's review is great. I loved how he praised the movie. There is another negative review from About.com but there has been like almost 15 postives to offset that one negative so far this morning.

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) Some guy from About.com indie film section reviewed it because they somehow believed this was an indie film? Well, he hated it and made it be known a few times that it isn't an indie film.
Pretty stupid

Pretty stupid I'm all for reviewers sharing their point of view and in general, haven't commented on the negative reviews ... people are entitled to their opinion but thats like blaming Schindler's List for not having enough toilet humor.

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) RT just counted Eric D Snider's joke comment about Dark Knight being worst than B&R as a rotten review  http://www.ericdsnider.com/movies/the-dark-knight/_________________"People always want to tear you down when you're on top, like Napoleon back in the Roman Empire" - Dirk Diggler

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) They must have took that down because it isn't there now. It is at 90% now and I am shocked Rex Reed liked it. I figured the old drunk would give it a rotten review. I have been curious to see Slant magazine since they usually are tough to please.

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) Quote: The generation of consumers who swallow this pessimistic sentiment can’t see past the product to its debased morality. Instead, their excitement about The Dark Knight’s dread (that teenage thrall with subversion) inspires their fealty to product. English MOTHER FUCKER!

These critics complain about how society is so superficial and seeing mindless happy crap and they then complain that the film is a dark pessimistic film and it should be more happy. I am a neutral person but to me some of these critics are hating it because they just don't like Batman or comic book films. If Slant gives a positive review you can assume that the even the snobs like it. _________________The Dark Prince

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) Quote: Though some of the action sequences will drop your jaw, there’s too much gab between chases and too many generic battles to keep the movie from grinding along instead of flying. A tip for the future: The best tragic heroes don’t spend the movie talking about their own tragedy. No, that is what separates a character like HellBoy and Don Vito Corleone... _________________The Dark Prince

Re: The Official Dark Knight Reviews Thread! (88% RT, 8.0) Up to 92% with an 8.3 average...very impressive
no new updates from Metacritic (though it should be in the high 80s after updates)
