four sweatervests  
So I finally saw The Dark Knight last night. It was the shit, as the kids say. I'm not really sure if there's anything that I can say that hasn't already been said by every movie reviewer/reporter/fangirl, but...I will say them anyway. Heath Ledger was awesome, seriously, just amazing, I hate Christian Bale's Batman voice, I love Gary Oldman and for real, guys, The Joker!!! Everything from his "magic trick" to the nurse's outfit, I just loved all of it.

And please tell me that I'm not the only loser who was tickled that Nestor Carbonell, aka Eyeliner Dude from Lost aka BATMANUEL FROM THE TICK was the mayor in a Batman movie. Yes.

I'm also aboard the Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along-Blog train and by that I mean I am completely obsessed and have listened to the music on my ipod far too many times and I want more and sequels and Broadway adaptations. I was just reading its Television Without Pity message board and it seemed like a lot of people didn't like the third part, but that one was my favorite. All the songs were great, I love "So They Say" and the finale just breaks my heart. I think everyone just expected some grand, happy ending but it's Joss Whedon! I haven't even seen all of his stuff and I knew that there was no way it was ending happily. It's in one of the songs! "There's no happy endings, so they say." Now I want to rewatch it but I'm at work. Damn.

And it made me even more excited for How I Met Your Mother to come back becuase NPH is the best part of that show (Jason Segel is a very, very close second). I miss my Fall TV shows so much. At least now I have Psych.

Speaking of HIMYM, I just got an email that my Slap-Bet Commissioner shirt has been shipped. WIN.

Oh my God, Christian Bale's Batman voice made me laugh so hard. I don't understand it at allllll. Like, he even talked that way when he was talking to people who knew he was Batman, so it's not even to disguise his Bruce Wayne voice. ALSO YES LOLOL MAYOR EYELINER DUDE.

HAHA, you're so right, he doesn't need to use that stupid voice when he's talking to Rachel, but he still does. Maybe he thinks it's sexy.

Okay, so as bad as the Nurse scene is.. my friend and I thought the Joker's little walk out the hospital was one of the funniest scenes lol

A lot of people in my theater giggled, including me. Drag is always funny ALWAYS, it's a law of comedy.
Julie[info]_withoutme on July 27th, 2008 05:07 pm (UTC)
I was cracking up laughing with my friend.. I think a few people around me were upset. Oh Drag - and that is why I love the gay pride parade in Ptown every summer

I can't tell if he's actually wearing eyeliner or just has really thick dark lashes. I hope it's the first one.

Does Nestor Carbonell have natural thick black eyeliner or something?
Michelle[info]binary on July 23rd, 2008 07:57 pm (UTC)
Maybe it's tattooed on like Michael Jackson.

Is there anywhere I can download the songs for Dr. Horrible???????? I've been looking and no such luck.

I seriously don't know what I was expecting when this is a JOSS WHEDON PROJECT. Honestly? I thought Captain Hammer would die, and yeah, I was a bit miffed, but in the end, Joss still rules a huge part of my soul. *sigh*

LOVE THAT SHIRT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Michelle: Tele ; HIMYM - Woo![info]binary on July 23rd, 2008 07:58 pm (UTC)
Aww, yeah Joss is evil. I found the soundtrack in one of the iheart communities.

I can't wait to wear it!
