The History Channel has been showing two specials about Batman.  I just caught the end of one last night, and it has lots of clips of the comic books, TDK and interviews with the actors and creators.  The next time they're scheduled is Monday:

Monday 9:00 pm EDT:  Batman Tech

Monday 10:00 pm EDT:  Batman Unmasked: The Psychology of the Dark Knight

For more info go to the History Channel and search for "Batman":  http://www.history.com/schedule.do

I bought my ticket today!  It's for 8:30 A.M. on Saturday (!) all the other IMAX screenings were sold-out except for the ones after midnight.  I won't be in costume... ;)

Wow, Paul, you may be the first to see it, other than spiceylife, who saw a preview.  I'm excited for you!  8)

My costume was being the only one over 30!  The Boston Common theatre had scheduled three 12:01 showings, but they ended up opening several  more screens to accomodate all the last-minute folks.  And they were all full.

No spoilers here, I know. 

Just to say, Heath was mesmerizing.  After a few moments, I stopped seeing Heath at all.  It was pure Joker. 

I'll post more on the spoilers thread, just in case. 

I'm exhausted. :P

In one of the many reviews the last days, I read something along this line: mourn him in the first five minutes, but then let him be the Joker. Seems like it comes natural to follow this advice.

Thanks for reporting Paul :)
