OMG, just got back from the midnight showing of BATMAN :: THE DARK KNIGHT!!!

I'm not going to spoil anything in it because I think all of you need to get your butts out to the theatre to see this shizz on the big screen ASAP. They did just about everything right and everything you hear about Heath Ledger being a show stealer is completely true and then some. Granted, I've always been a big Joker fan (his take on reality is something I actually find both compelling and familiar), but seriously, it's like blahblahJOKERblahblahJOKER. Really, Ledger's performance here truly defines not only what we lost in an actor as an individual but also what we've lost in actors on the whole. The only thing that would have made it better would have been if I had the Bat Underpants Hawk and I have been rabidly discussing for the past week XDD My other thought on the movie experience? Well, I wish I knew how to explain how I made friends with this one guy, but now that I'm trying to type it, I can't. But there was booze and a coffee cup. I think ¬_¬

Though as just an OMG aside, probably more exciting than the actual *movie* was the fact that we finally got a trailer for THE WATCHMEN. For the past I don't even know how long, poor <lj user="klingonpoo"> has put up with me squeeing and speculating over the fact they're making a film of one of my fave comics ever, but finally seeing it all being put in motion... I hardly knew what to do with myself. So much of it looks exactly like it does in the comic, and the trailer is sleek and sexy and dark. I can't even maybe wait. I'll just go back to rewatching the trailer a hundred times...

[watch the trailer omg do it do it click now bitches O__O]

Anyway, for once, I'm actually kind of tired, so I'm hitting the sack, but keep an eye out for something shiny. I mean, I have to thank the people who've so graciously landed me almost 2,500 hits on dA in the past three months somehow, right? Ohhh, why so serious? *maniacal giggles*
