I doubt it, unless I see it again and like it more that it will get below number 20. Its between The Bridge On The River Kwai and Rear Window. You guys know how I think about newly released films being called all time great films. Usually I am driven to hate the film and call such suggestions to be silly, however TDK deserves it this time. Forget Children of Men and Brave New world. damn straight, The Dark Knight had me floored, when I said it might be the greatest film of all time before going into the theater I did not expect the film to come within my top 10 of all time, I didnt even think it would be much better than BB, but the film pulled me in faster than any I have ever seen and kept me glued.

 Re: The Dark Knight
Darth Indiana Bond, you and me have similar movie tastes.
Where does TDK rank in your top 100??? and between what???
Bj, I did go into the film theater thinking it will be one of the best blockbusters in a long time and I was not disappointed.
Imo everyone knew how good the film was, so for it to still be so beloved even though it had expectations to be the best film of the year is beyond words.

Harvey killed Maroni's driver, causing a spectacular crash during which Maroni did not wear a seat belt. Harvey put on his seat belt before saying the "your driver" line -- I didn't notice until the third viewing.

It is too hard for me to rank my top films, but yes I noticed we have simular tastes, although I disagree with you on some films. However The Dark Knight keeps slighting further and further up in my head, at first I wasn't even going to give it an "A+" but the more I think about it, the more I really enjoy it, hell loved it.

 Re: The Dark Knight
 That was the lamest attempt to make this the longest Critic thread in the forum, I thought bABA's comment was a joke.

Because clearly, thats all he deserved. what he said I almost did! Especially, when he said 'worst movie I've seen this year'  and 'Incredible Hulk was 10x time better' Me and 3 of my girlfriends (we all loved this movie) were just  stunned We don't know him personally though, he just tries to get close to one of our girls. But after his reaction toward TDK, we all agree; he has no taste! Pity, since he's so hot!

 Re: The Dark Knight
I think it's implied that Maroni did die. No way he could survive that crash without a seatbelt on. He's definitely part of the 5 man body count.
