The Dark Knight
 
I can't remember which poster it was. But, anyway he was talking about going to see the movie, Journey to the Center of the earth. Great movie. Go see it.

But, The Dark Knight. Let it be. It is not your average comic book movie. Trust me. Last Weekend, me and my lovely bride, on our date night, went to see it. Great Plot, and acting. But, it is very violent, and twisted, and dark.

Hence the name.................The dark Knight

Was it edifying? Did it promote Jesus Christ?

Trust me Rev. It did not edify God, By a long shot.

You know what one of the Brothers in the church here brought up that Heath Ledger ( actor who played Joker) died right after the movie.

What are your thoughts on that?

I want to see it...... "Dark" is not always bad if it was well written, well acted, artistically directed, and action packed!

People don't go into this film expecting to see a high budget version of Pilgrims Progress.

Reports at the time of his death from an overdose of prescription medicene was that he had said the role of the joker really affected him. That he had trouble shaking it after the film finished shooting.

Of course he also was a strange duck and I think pretty much regularly abused medication both prescribed and otherwise (he was a pothead).

Very sad situation. He was a talented young actor who I greatly enjoyed in "The Patriot" where he played Mel Gibson's son.

Apparently, as an actor, he wanted to capture the Jokers personality fully and it REALLY bothered him, even when the camera's were not rolling. Stories like this are fairly common. Ron Perlman (who currently stars in the Hell Boy movies) played the Predator in the first movie of the same name. He is said to have had major problems playing such an evil alien entity since his normal personality tends to fall in the "gentle" category.
