Get Fucked Up

The thing that affected me the most about The Dark Knight was its overwhelming sense of dread.  That things were, no matter where you were in the film, only going to get worse.  Ledger’s Joker is such a force in the movie, you as the viewer have absolutely no idea how Batman’s going to win, because you yourself cannot figure out how to beat a Joker like that.  

And that, friends, is awesome.  That a movie affects me at all, these days, is rare.  That a Batman movie can do it, spectacular.
