Me too, with the mrs. and a couple of good mates who are also well into their comic books. It's gonna be awesome.

I probably won't be able to see it until next Sunday 
Where abouts are you going to see it?
I'm probably going to see it at Croydon Grants, because fuck the Bromley cinema.

It'll be at least another week before I can see DKR. Just have a lot on my plate at the moment, plus I'm not really in the form for a three hour movie.
A great but slightly flawed movie?
A heavily flawed movie that was inferior to Batman Begins in every way except main villain.
You are way too harsh on a lot of films. It was more memorable for me than Batman Begins, my problem with TDK was it was a bit long and they should have left out Two Face for the next one instead of doing his full arc from beginning to end.
I'm honest. If I was harsh, I'd be exaggerating. The flaws in TDK leap out at me.
For your tastes sure. I just think 'we all know how that turned out' isn't a fair statement as loads of people love it.
I do agree with this. Inception especially was really boring the second time, a bit better the third. Too much talking about the premise and the directing of the gun fights in the snow was awful.
Stop taking anything typed in UK-GAF seriously! (unless it's about abortions) Chinner once took things seriously and we all know how that turned out.

what? BB is ok, but TDK is ICONIC. It's better for that reason alone.
I saw TDKR last night, it was aces. As a lifelong Batman fan I found it to be spot on with characterisation all across the board and it was a satisfying conclusion to the series. It was stressful.
Xun, how long have you been playing the guitar and why hasn't it gotten you laid yet?
I don't know what you mean unless you mean TDK got more mainstream exposure which is true I guess.
Have you ever been to Croydon Grants? It's pretty decent, aside from the fact it's in Croydon.

I mean there is nothing that captured the imagination so much as Joker's pencil trick, or walking out of the hospital in a nurse's outfit and blowing it up. BB was ok, but even as a huge Batman fan I found it pretty by the numbers and a little silly. TDK was far more engrossing plot-wise, villain-wise and performance-wise all round.
TDK has mobile phones acting as 3D mapping devices. Every mobile phone. And it gets transmitted into his cowl in real time.
And his car blows up and then turns into a bike.
TDK was waaaay more James Bond and silly than Begins.
Also, Batman Begins Batman:
"I am only human. I will scare the shit out of them to make them easy prey, then pick them off one by one."
The Dark Knight Batman:
"RRAWRAWRAWRAWRAWRAWR COME ON YOUR JEREMIES LET'S HAVE IT!!!! ... oh no my suit is slowing me down!"
It was better than 50 shades of grey

Yeah but I didn't find it cringy. Bout time he got laid.
Eh? He scored, and he summarised the touchey-feely bits in one paragraph at the end.
Could have done without the leg wrapping description, though.
I think if I was ill and lonely, I wouldn't be happy in a 5-star either
Travelling alone and getting friendzoned left and right is probably disheartening to some degree.
But if you don't like his writing style, you don't like his writing style. Simple as.
Also it hurts to type now on my left hand.
Is it you?
Oh! Wait! You secretly know one of the girls he hit on?! PLEASE SAY YES
I'm just gonna wait for the book.

Reason being?
Oh and just got back from Batman. Was great. I also was thinking of this place when the S3 ad came on...haha

Musha's right that it's about time he got some action. I was going to make a poll for people to vote on which day they thought it'd finally happen - and I went for day 22, so I was pessimistic!
EDIT: The story's no longer there? Did he realise what a Jeremy he sounded like? I'm annoyed I don't get to read about it

Oh, it turns out it is all still there, my mistake. I've given my take on it in picture form.

Also, speaking of creepy as fuck, the "show us your girlfriend / wife" thread. A bunch of people posting photos of their partners online seeking validation, I just don't get it. Meadows, I apologise in advance as I think I may have seen a post from you there a while back (I like to check it every now and again out of morbid curiosity), did you not think it was weird? It might just be me!
Gossiping old ladies.. Glad to know I can turn to this thread for the latest events on NeoGAf.
Oh and for the record my awesome phone got commented on twice at the
the house party.. Had to take my phone of charge later on and hide it in my pocket when I caught word of a ex convict being on the way to the party. It sucks ass that all the weekend fun and games are over. It really does suck major ass that it's over. Why does the good times have to end. Fuck god. He has this shit way to even out the good and bad times. We're not clothing god stop ironing us out. Meh I need another beer. Also god is a make believe fellow. I won't go to deep into that In case I get a week or two ban

This. I'm not having strangers jerking there Richards to my girlfriend. I'm a pretty open guy but fuck that shit.
Well that's what happened, yeah? I wasn't feeling sorry for myself. I kept having anxiety attacks on the train from Granada to Madrid while I tried to watch some Breaking Bad, like I mentioned. Had to keep pausing it to do breathing exercises. Can't control that, just a result of being isolated and sick for several days and not really having any human contact. I have clinical depression and anxiety, and I'm providing an honest account of the events, so that's why I mention it. It provided for an interesting contrast between the first half of the day and the second half, though, after I forced myself through it and went out and made things happen.
Staying in a nice hotel doesn't make you immune to negativity or immune to life. I only mention that it's a five star because I ended up taking a girl back to my hotel, and I had a different end point of the story in a previous revision but I felt like ending it at the cab. Bringing her back to my swank hotel sort of completed the night, confirmed all the things I had said about myself, and made her think I was James Bond or something ;b. I don't really give a fuck either way where I stay, as you'll notice since I've stayed in a bunch of hostels. Nice hotels are for your woman, not for you. I just so happened to stay at a nice hotel and have a woman that day, a pleasant coincidence.
