Good review. I didn't mind the length, but I've sat through some boring ass movies in my time, so...

It's not a bad review, but...

I think you should rehearse your future videos a little more.
Your review is fine, but your speech just needs a little work. So, take out some "um"'s, and cut some profanity, and you will be great.

His reviews are not usually like this, I'm not sure why this was put on here actually. Compared to his other videos this one is nowhere near as good.

His real reviews are much higher quality, and he eats far less as well

THE DARK KNIGHT KILLED SPIDERMAN 3's SUCKINESS
written by Rapter57 , August 01, 2008

I've allready seen this review but i completely agree. i find it sortof shitty now that some people still prefer Iron Man over this just because they cant sit thru a film with not only a plausible plot but far more intense action anyway. so it was to "dark" of a film? NO SHIT! ITS THE "DARK" KNIGHT! NOT THE "EMOTIONALLY DISTURBED GUY IN BLACK". That was Spiderman 3.

In a 5 star review i give it a solid 6. if you havent seen it yet, dont. you will not understand its greatness unless you were actually willing to not wait 7 weeks before seeing it and know who the fuck Two Face is.

Oh, and to put the Rachael thing in perspective, i forgot that she had died after the first time i saw it. thats how unnapealing the character is in comparison to Viki Vale. granted shes still a good character, but one of my friends was actually fake crying because "the hot chick died" and Maggie Gyllinhall is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay less attractive than Katie Holmes (at least in terms of the movies)

As for joker blowing up the hospital and "planning in advance", the joker never plans anything in advance but if they bothered to show how he rigged the explosives the movie would have been like 31/2 hours long. the whole point of why that scene is so nonsencical yet kickass is because at the end of the day noone gives a shit how he was able to pull it off, hes the fucking joker, and it was hillarious.

So see this movie or suffer the wrath of Schumacker. your choice *shutters*

I loathe when people say Gyllenhaal isn't attractive. If you watch Stranger Than Fiction and Secretary, she exudes sexiness and beauty in both of them. And she's definetly got more personality and acting ability than Holmes had. Gyllenhaal may be an unconventional leading lady, but I like that.

Plus...

Gyllenhall has more acting talent in her left nipple than Holmes has in her entire body (all twelve pounds of it). Hotness is nice, but having to sit through Batman Begins again to review it, I can tell you I'll take the better actress over the supposed hotter one.

To quote Han Solo: "No reward is worth this!"

And who in Casting thought she was credible? Seriously, if Katie Holmes is an assistant District Attorney, then Denise Richards is Stephen Hawking.

Well, lest we forget, Denise Richards did play a nuclear scientist (!!!!) in The World is not Enough. By that yardstick, Holmes as a D.A. looks sensible by comparison.

Hmmm...
written by The Other Guy , August 01, 2008

We do think alike. Scary. Yes, I am aware of said cinematic infraction. If you wanna see something truly hilarious, ask Doug to do his impression of Denise Richards saying, "Stop! He's an imposter!" from World is Not Enough. It was so dead on funny that it ruined the film for me when I eventually saw it, cause her read of the line just couldn't match up to Doug's hype. I mean, it was bad. But not as gut-splittingly bad as Doug's impersonation. We both are still floored to this very day that anybody thought she could play a nuclear scientist. At LEAST, though, that was a JAMES BOND movie. What's Batman Begins' excuse?

DON'T TALK WITH YOUR MOUTH FULL!

Not bad review. It just would have been nice if he finished eating before he started the review.

Ahuh.
written by Opacic , August 02, 2008

I honestly don't understand why you people complain about how he hasn't rehearsed, or how he's eating, I find that part of Spoony's reviews appealing, it makes it a little more interesting and natural, his ideas are fresh in his head and whatnot.

I'm not sure, it just doesn't seem like such forced humor or entertainment like other video game/movie reviewers on the internet, such as the AVGN (Hey Kids! Swearing a crapload is fun!"

i agree, 2 and a half hours is an annoyingly long time to watch a movie (pssh... Godfather) but with this movie, I didn't think it was enough. Though, I'm the sort of person who could sit through days of film just to see her favourite character a little more, so don't go by me.

The only thing I would have changed about this whole thing... probably more Scarecrow. It was awesome that he even managed to get in the movie in the first place, yeah, but once I caught a glimpse of him, I needed more.

Call me an overzelous fangirl.

Interesting review overall, but the next time, for the love of god,
PLEASE
don't EAT while recording your video.
Maybe you were eager to record your thoughts about the movie but hadn't had time to eat blablabla... No!
It's plain disgusting and ill-mannered. It's like doing a video in your underpants or while taking a dump. It DOESNT make you seem more casual or relaxed or anything positive, really.

Only thing that actually bothered me was you eated same time as talked in this video. It sounds horrible and no wonder mothers' always tell they kids not to talk while they eat. This one thing did this video rather unenjoyable.

Jeez, people are weird - being offended by you eating. How lame, haha.
Anyway - i think the movie was hyped a little more than i would have liked (hyped by friends and people whose opinions i trust), because i did enjoy it - but for some reason found Begins to be deeper and a better movie. I liked the Joker, but i don't see why Heath Ledger made him "great" - as anyone can talk in that voice, and acting insane is the easiest thing to act. It was good writing. I don't mean to rag on Ledger - i didn't know him and his work enough to really care about him - but he wasn't a god in his role just because he died! It's that whole "Hero" issue - "what's a hero?" - "someone who dies!"

Maybe again it was the hype, and i was expecting more than i'd already seen of him in the commercials when i shouldn't have been. I highly enjoyed the movie - that semi-truck flipping scene caught me off guard in such an awesome way, haha - but i couldn't really become as hopelessly infatuated with it like almost everyone else has.

Oh, and the special effects of Two-Face's bad side - amazing ... i tried my hardest to see if i could spot any obvious visual flaws that send me back to "i'm watching a movie with CG" ville, but could find none. It was as if they actually burned that part of his face off just for the scene. That was awesome.

Anyhoo - like anyone cares, haha.

Movie was pretty good 4 a batman movie. Not as good a Spiderman though. Anyone think he was hungry? lolz

I'm very sorry, but the eating thing was so unbearable that I couldn't watch for more than 30 seconds. I'm sure the review is good and all, but this completely ruined it.

Enjoyable, but I think it would be better that you don't eat during your video, I don't think it's disgusting like some other people, but it would be better if you just made this video after you eated something.

It was pretty damn good.
written by LandlordROB , September 14, 2008

But I really have to say this right now, it is just a little overrated. I know it's supposed to be the messiah of movies of our generation, but it's just a really good movie. The hype just got to a lot of people's heads. It may not have any flaws, but that doesn't mean it's perfect. But yeah, this is a really good review, and a very honest one. Honestly, I notice a lot of the flaws in movies the second they happened. =P

I absolutely agree with you, I find it personable. It's like listening to one of the guys.

I do disagree with Spoony about Gyllenhall though. I've always thought she was hot. I'll admit, she does look much more odd than usual in The Dark Knight, but I still think it's a sexy-odd.
