Prior to the feature presentation of The Dark Knight, in theaters, was a trailer for a new film coming out in 2009 called "The Watchmen". Originally a graphic novel, DC has decided to make it a live action film and omg... does it look impressive.

The Dark Knight
Just watched The Dark Knight, staring Christian Bail as Batman, Heath Ledger as The Joker and Aaron Eckhart as Harvey Dent. I was completely blown away by the gravity of this film. the outstanding performance by Heath Ledger combined with intense action, drama and plenty of twists and surprises to keep you glued to the screen hoping to nature doesn't call.
This is by far one of the best comic book to movie film I have ever seen. The Joker's character was terrifying thanks to Heath Ledger. He created a genuinely creepy and realistic Joker we have yet to see on screen. Jack Nicholson's rendition of the Joker in Tim Burton's Batman filmed in the 1990's was in no doubt good... but however there is no comparison with the level of performance by Heath Ledger.
I can't say too much about the film since its filled with twists and surprises. You defiantly have to check it out for yourself!
10/10

Dark Knight Vehicles
The Dark Knight is finally out in theaters all over North America. The streets are packed and everyone is crowded the entrances in theaters all over in hopes of good seats. I hope to see the film sometime on opening . Its widely anticipated; but as for myself I really want to see the new rendition of the joker played by Heath Ledger. Just by looking at the trailer, I can tell this is going to be a good film.
I bet a million people are trying to find a torrent for this video. I say... shame on you! I think this is defiantly a theater worthy movie. I've been a fan of the Batman stories since I was quite young. I really enjoyed the Art Deco themed animated series of Batman back in the 1990s. It help keep me involved in story. Tim Burton's renditions of the Batman story to film was really well done. I enjoyed the first two films. The others following were okay but not as good as the first two.
I took some photos on my cell phone of the Dark Knight vehicles when they were in Toronto last week, before they were taken back to California the following day.

Indian Jones - The Crystal Skull
What the fuck....
Watch this film and you'll say what the fuck too.
7/10
This is two movies in one... Indian Jones and some CG-Sci-fi film.

The Happening
This is one of the strangest films I've seen in a while. It was really creepy and odd. Some parts are hard to watch others will make you just laugh. The horrible acting is actually comical and the decent violence in it is pretty out-standing and realistic. This film paid pretty good homage to Hitchhock. The use of music and the feeling of the in escapable danger that you fear you cannot run away from.
This film was quite strange but alright. I think everyone should give it a chance once it hits DVD's for rentals.

The Incredible Hulk
The Incredible Hulk movie was actually pretty good. I really enjoyed it and i thought the Hulk really did look convincing and real. The story was good and it helped those who don't know much about the Hulk, have a further understanding about what he is and why is is the way he is... okay that was confusing but hopefully you know what i mean.
The fight at the end was meh... it actually kind of reminded me of Iron Man's last show down in his film. Are all superhero movies going to end this way now? With CG'ed hero and villain having a show-down completely in CG? Either way, the effects were alright and i didn't mind the acting.

Iron Man
I've never really been a fan of the Iron Man comics, mostly because I never really picked up one as a kid. I was too fixed on stories of the X-Men and Spider-Man to really get into anyone new. I decided to find out what Iron Man was all about by checking out the Iron Man movie played by Robert.
The movie was jam-packed full of hilarious comments by Robert. Was actually one of the key highlights of the film for me more than the action and story. The action was alright and the effects weren't too bad. However i did not like the completely CG-animated scene with Iron Man shooting a tank... that really turned the quality of the film down a notch for me. It felt almost unbelievable and unreal in a bad way.
The end fight was a bit boring but least it helped close the film. There were many hits towards the Avengers film which will be later on produced in a few years, featuring Iron Man, Ant-Man and the Hulk plus a few others such as like Captain America.

Hancock
Hancock staring Will Smith was an awesome film but however some people might be miss led by the type of film it is. Its not your traditional superhero action flick with a superhero that must save the city from this equally or more powerful villain. Its a drama story using superheroic characters. So don't expect some large battle at the end of the movie; though there defiantly is some foes and some fighting.
The effects in this film are incredible and I also really did enjoy the plot of the movie. Its got many twists and bends, though some are predictable, there were still moments where i was shocked and surprised at the turn of events.
This movie is defiantly not for kids... lots of blood, cursing and a man's head shoved up the rear ass of another man's. I say you should all go out and buy a ticket to see Hancock while its still in theaters, its got enough action to keep you interested and the story is pretty touching.
8/10
The beginning of this film was absolutely perfect. However the second have the film had just too many twists to keep up with. The action was great but the drawn out fight scene between the two superheros was actually kind of ridiculous and i partially didn't like that scene at all, though the effects were well done. That scene would have only made scene if there was a villain of the same strength. Other than that i did'nt quite understand the reason behind why they were fighting.
Note: for website I'm making a small button for each film that has an icon of the film and the name of the film and a big "8/10" on it and a button that says Why? that when clicked leads you to the review.
