LOL!
Yes, there actually *is* a patient sitting in the bed there. Wonder if he thinks he's just half-delirious and reacting to the latest pills, and that's why the nurse looks so strange, has such powerful arms *swoon* and strangely seems to be toting such a badass gun....
Mikaela:
Sorry to be taking over the thread - won't anybody else post? :-\ Guess everyone's out partying and whatever else it is you do on 4th of July.
Anyway, I found a new review of TDK that I hadn't seen before. it's the second review I've seen that calls for an Oscar nom for the film, not just the Joker.
And as for the Joker, here's what the reviewer has to say:
--- Quote ---You can believe the hype, KNIGHT could have quite simply been renamed to THE JOKER. Ignoring the fact that we lost Ledger earlier this year, he truly does deserve credit for bringing one of the most diverse, unique and well-developed characters to the big screen since Daniel Day Lewis in THERE WILL BE BLOOD. Some will say it's over-the-top, while everyone else will see the true genius in his work. When Christopher and Jonathan Nolan reveal The Joker's motive early in the film, it's tough to take in, and tough to take serious (why so serious?), but by the final frame of the film, the viewer should be sold without question. The deconstruction of The Joker is something of wonder; watching Ledger descend deeper into psychosis was more interesting that watching Lewis do it in BLOOD. To say he will give the viewer goosebumps is an understatement.

Mikaela, you post post post, because I love love love it! :-*
Mikaela:
Thank you very very much! :)
Well, one final post from me then, and I'll be off.....
I don't know much about the Batman/TDK fandom at all, but it suddenly struck me that if it is like other fandoms (say; Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, etc.) that means many fans will dress up as their favourite characters for the premiere or for the first public screening.
I wonder if the initial audience crowds will be filled with Jokers?

I am going to try to be there during the London premiere this month, 21 July in Leicester square....
