So, we were invited down to the IMAX Theatre at Universal City Walk yesterday to watch a tastemaker / talent screening of The Dark Knight.. Let’s be honest, it’s a bit surreal to be sitting in an IMAX Theatre with David and Victoria Beckham (and their kids), Cut Chemist, Surge from System, the AFI boys, Mix Master Mike, and a slew of other bands and celbs instead of your random fat heshers and their loud kids.

Expectations were running really high, and although we were so close to the screen you could hardly watch some of the scenes without getting sick, the movie didn’t disappoint. Insanely dark and twisted, with great effects and new bat toys.. one of the best action hero movies to date in our opinion, and definitely the best batman movie yet.

Heath Ledger as The Joker is by far the best Joker EVER, and the standout character in the movie.. such a loss. There are countless scenes where you realize just how talented he was and how sad his recent death was - and just how much playing the insane Joker may have led to his real life final days.

Anyway.. was a good break from the daily grind.. our new intern is working on getting the archives up on the site, so that should be coming soon. Stay tuned.
