My favorite review of The Dark Knight. I laugh as soon as I hear Koreyâs opening praise.
Though Heath Ledger is credited with a well-deserved reinvention of the Joker, he once noted in an interview that he already had this âcharacterâ crafted for whatever role next deserved it. Just serendipity that he gave it to Nolan for the Joker, though Iâm sure he refined it under Nolanâs expert character direction.
Because sometimes the truth isnât good enough. Sometimes people deserve more. Sometimes people deserve to have their faith rewarded.

Damn, they really sent kids off to war back then, didnât they.
I guess Iâm the only one watching. Damn, this movie is even better than I remembered. The attention to nautical detail in every shot and scrap of dialogue. Just criminal that they didnât make a half dozen Master and Commander movies.

Watching late. Remember watching this back in the day, and liking it, but forgot pretty much everything.
The only real thing that I remembered were the big ship battle scenes in the rain. Which are fucking legit. But what is the glue is all the small scenes in between. The kid is a bad ass. Going on galapagos was cool. All that tying together for the ultimate plan.
Never realized there were something like 5 more stories worth out there for them to film. Is a shame it didnât happen.
As far as his Bat-adjacent appearances go, Leahy had his most significant few seconds of screentime during The Dark Knight. The Joker (Heath Ledger) crashes Bruce Wayneâs fundraiser for Harvey Dent, and Leahy is the man who confronts him, yelling âWeâre not intimidated by thugs.â The Joker responds by putting his blade against Leahyâs cheek and hissing about his daddy issues. "[Ledger] scared the heck out of me with the knife,â Leahy later said. âI didnât have to act.â
My only complaint is that Master and Commander had one or two subplots that could have been cut out for time. Otherwise, that movie owns. Esp the part where the doctor gets to geek out on Galapagos Island for a day, how can you not love that.
Itâs my favorite movie, probably seen it six times. Best line is
Blakeny: Tie your neck bands on your right upper arm to tell friend from foe. Davies, this arm, starboard arm!
Davies: Is that the one you got or the one you donât got?
Blakeny: All right, thatâs enough cheek DaviesâŚ
Dunno if youâre still up for watching Trial of the Chicago 7 tonight. I probably will either way.
But if you need some time away from this place or from TV or whatever, thatâs obviously cool with me. Just do whatever you think is best and best of luck with real life stuff.
Gonna start Trial of the Chicago 7 soon if anyone wants to watch along.
Mom told me she wanted to go to Chicago, but her dad practically threatened to disown her.
In 1982, the Executive Committee of the United States District Court ordered that Hoffman not be assigned any new cases because of his age and complaints that he was acting erratically and abusively from the bench. However, he continued to preside over his ongoing cases until his death from natural causes the next year, a week before his 88th birthday.[6]
Gotta love these lifetime judicial appointments
