Viewing Notes

The Dark Knight is still epic, but on my third viewing I’m unsatisfied how The Joker’s plot was wrapped up. I wish Harvey Dent was less involved and The Joker had a more fitting conclusion.

In my gut, I feel like Nolan had a conclusion thought up for the third film involving The Joker, but Ledger’s untimely death changed that.

We’ll see how I feel after watching The Dark Knight Rises…
