Honestly this is the best movie and sequel since the Godfather I/II.

SPOiLER SORTA-> The setup for the future is awesome but unfotunately we'll never get anymore Joker/Batman setups. I can't see them ever getting someone else to play this Joker in the future.

Not that Bale wasn't great in this, but he practically deserved third or even fourth billing in this. Ledger and Eckhart just stole the screen throughout the movie, especially towards the end. And I thought Gary Oldman was also a force throughout.

I seriously want to see it again this weekend. Heath Ledger's performance has to go down with Anthony Hopkins in Silence of the Lambs and Javier Bardem in NCFOM.
