Just shows how much "piracy" hurts these scumbags eh?

I never even bothered to burn this load of samey old garbage to a disk.. watched once, thought "so what, a superhero load of tripe" and deleted it. propaganda films suck.

This movie deserves it. I like how they were able to 'ground' Batman and the Joker in a realistic setting. Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker is phenominal.

Also, the Imax shots, mostly of city scapes are breath-takingly beautiful.

I bought the movie on Blu-ray and the quality is excellent!

There is absolutely no need to compare this with food for the poor because entertainment is not a crime.
