Actually, because I hardly watch non-premium movie channels, I haven't seen a single ad yet.

Just a few days ago I was going to post about how I couldn't understand why TDKR was advertising so much -- it wasn't like anyone didn't know it was coming out.

And then I see the post from CLW ....

the only reason I knew anything about it was forum boards. I never saw an ad on tv, ever.

Well I'm probably not exactly in the target demographic for Hollywood. ("My" t.v. watching is almost exclusively business news; politics and sports) I usually DVR most programs (with the exception of :Duke: basketball) so by default its "hard" to get me to pay attention to commercials. My wife watches allot of "train wreck t.v." as I like to call it. We RARELY see movies in theatres. Prior to The Hunger Games I think the last movie we saw in the theatres was either the last Indiana Jones movie or The Blind Side (whichever came last).

So it was a pretty epic movie....

Spoiler: show

I like how TDKR basically brought everything full circle eight years later from TDK. The original plan of the League of Shadows trying to destroy Gotham was still in full motion in a very large scale. It was great seeing the aerial shots of the city after everything was blown up. Seeing Gotham with a new "government" in charge was really well done. It was hilarious that Dr. Crane was the judge.

The iconic scene when Bane breaks Batman's back was there and looked really damn cool.

Anne Hathaway was great in her role as Selina Kyle. Never called Catwoman (which explained IMDB). And god damn she's hot.

As soon as Blake tossed his badge into the river at the end, I knew he was going to become the next Batman after Bruce. That whole ending scene with Gordon discovering a new Bat Signal, Alfred on vacation and finally sees his dream of seeing Bruce and they don't talk, and Bruce leading Blake to the Batcave via GPS. Was just a perfect damn ending to the trilogy.

Also, I was surprised that sitting through three movies in one setting at the theatre wasn't as annoying and uncomfortable as I thought it would be.

Though it could have been obvious and people will claim they saw it coming (easy to say after the fact)...I did honestly think that Bruce died in the Batwing with the bomb. Looking back on it, you can see it coming as Bruce mentions he's the only one other than Fox that can fix the autopilot on it.

Ah. I guess maybe it shows it for me since I wrote it. Wasn't sure how that worked.

After re-watching it in the marathon last night for the first time in a couple years. Regardless of death, Ledger's performance of the Joker was still legendary.

Also after re-watching The Dark Knight:

Spoiler: show

I really did think that it opened the door for the return of Harvey Dent. I still thought that leading into the opening of The Dark Knight Rises.
