  There will be no other superhero movie like this, ever. As much as i love the marvel universe, Christopher Nolan created a masterpiece.

  Son of a gun, you did it.<br><br>You examined one of the most overanalysed and critically scrutinized film of our time and presented a nuanced, novel perspective on it.

  Heath Ledger&apos;s Joker is arguably the greatest incarnation of the character. Even Mark Hamill was impressed by Ledger&apos;s performance.

  Oooh this is going to be awesome! I actually did a whole college essay about how the U.S used superhero movies as a cinematic coping mechanism after 9/11. It’s really interesting actually. Thank you for the new perspective.

  The weird painful tone of this movie is all I really ever remember after watching it. Anyone can be corrupted, but you have to keep living... but that doesn’t make it better. It’s like the movie is in conversation with itself.

  Because it&apos;s not a superhero movie. it&apos;s a crime thriller with a vigilante.

  The trillionth Dark Knight analysis. This film has to be the greatest film of all time. No other film has been dissected so much in the past century, not even Citizen Kane

  The Dark Knight is the greatest superhero movie ever made, hands down, no comparisons.
