Re: The Dark Knight : whens it on?

I hope that Sky re-show Batman Begins in HD. Somehow missed that first time round.

And /Or show the Tim Burton versions in HD. TBs first 2 films and the two new ones are great comic book adaptations.

Re: The Dark Knight : whens it on?

I was going to say you aren't missing much.

I watched the Bluey. The film was so hard to watch we had to stop half way through and crack open some booze to dull the pain.

Batman Begins was a good film, but The Dark Knight was hard going, it definately needed 30mins shaved off.


The HD pic was good, but not exceptional also.


But it seems you actually liked the film .

I consider TDK as a HD presentation to be reference but yeah I prefer Batman Begins for overall story

Re: The Dark Knight : whens it on?
