THE DARK KNIGHT (2008) - TCS Debut - MOVIE REACTION - First Time Watching

TCS DEBUT: The Coby Show Cut of my first time reaction! The Dark Knight is a 2008 superhero film directed by Christopher Nolan, from a screenplay co-written with his brother Jonathan. Based on the DC Comics superhero Batman, it is the sequel to Batman Begins (2005), and the second installment in The Dark Knight trilogy. The plot follows the vigilante Batman, police lieutenant James Gordon, and district attorney Harvey Dent, who form an alliance to dismantle organized crime in Gotham City. Their efforts are derailed by the Joker, an anarchistic mastermind who seeks to test how far Batman will go to save the city from chaos. The ensemble cast includes Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Morgan Freeman. Hello everyone and welcome to The Coby Show!

How could I refuse any opportunity to watch this film again... R.I.P to the legend that is Mr Heath Ledger. See you there Coby.

Mark Knight

Looking forward to it Coby. Have a great evening.

I am going to repost my comment from full-length. Dark Knight is probably the best movie of the trilogy. This movie was inspired by the Batman: The Long Halloween storyline and the Killing Joke graphic novel. Skyhook ( the code name for the Fulton surface to air recovery system) is a real thing that was used by the U.S. military and intelligence agency to get agents out of hot spots. The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act( RICO) is an extremely important and effective tool that the U.S. used to combat the Mafia. In the comics Jim Gordon’s wife is also named Barbara, which is also the name of his daughter which makes it very confusing. The Major Crimes Unit(MCU)is a squad within the Gotham Police Department that is headed by Gordon. Rachel’s death was extremely unexpected and shockingly tragic because it was a major blow to Bruce. I should tell you that it is similar to the death of the second Robin, Jason Todd. In the infamous “Death in the Family” story, the Joker nearly beats Jason to death with a crowbar. Then DC decided to let the audience vote to decide on if Jason should live or die by calling one of two 900 numbers. The result was 5,343 for death and 5,271 for survival, so he died, however there is more to the story if you are interested. I am mostly going to focus on the new characters. The Joker is one of the most infamous and iconic characters of the Batman franchise. Heath Ledgers performance is amazing because he captures the essence of Joker, he is an agent of chaos and he relishes in it. In most versions, his backstory is left ambiguous, he says it best himself “ If I’m going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice”( Killing Joke). In “The Killing Joke” graphic novel we got a backstory that has became standard. He was a failed comedian who turned to a life of crime due to having to support a pregnant wife, who died. During a job in the Ace Chemical Plant, he was force to be the Red Hood( a persona that used to hided the real head of the gang) and he is confronted by Batman which terrified him so much that he fell in a vat of chemicals which caused him to transform into the Joker we know. He contends that all you need is “one bad day” to make you lose all grip on reality. He has caused so much pain for Batman, Gordon and Gotham; He killed Jason Todd, he shot and crippled Barbara Gordon then stripped her naked and took pictures of her, then he psychologically tortured Jim Gordon with pictures of his daughter, he murdered Gordon’s wife ( in Batman: No Man’s Land storyline), and abused Harley Quinn who loved him , among other things. He is always put in Arkham Asylum for the Criminally Insane, a psychiatric hospital where most of Batman rogue gallery are put after Batman captured them. One thing that is missing from this movie is his trademark Joker Gas, which causes uncontrollable laughter then death with a wide smile on the corpse. Harvey Dent is one of the more tragic characters in the Batman franchise. His transformation is different than what is in the movie. He is always a good man who is trying to make Gotham a better place legally, however he was subject to abuse by his father in his childhood that causing him to develop dissociative identity disorder. During a trial of mobster Carmine Falcone, one of his lieutenants Sal Maroni throws acid on him in open court causing his trademark scars, his second personality to come out and his obsession with duality. He is constantly at war with himself and his MO is that his crimes always center around the number two. He now makes every decision with a coin flip, the coin is a double headed coin: one side is clean( usually a good result), the other side is scarred( usually means death). An interesting portrayal of him in 1989’s “Arkham Asylum: A Serious House on Serious Earth”( which influenced the Batman Arkham Asylum video game), the doctors their decided as a therapy to replace his coin(which has two choices) with a die( which has six) then a tarot card deck( which greatly increased the number of choices), however instead of curing him of his dependence instead leaving him unable to make the simplest decisions like going to the bathroom. In the end of the story, Batman returns the coin and lets him decide if Batman should live or die, he decides to ignore the coin’s outcome. He became a major crime boss in Gotham and is rivals with the Oswald Cobblepot( aka the Penguin). His wife Gilda usually survives and wants him back and hopes that he can be cured and the good man she loved will come back. He often has a friendly relationship with Bruce Wayne. Bruce supports Harvey before his transformation and works to find a cure for his friend. Batman treats Harvey a little differently because he is not a brutal with his takedowns.

DaveV21

Hi, Coby! - TDK is definitely worth a "second reactive trip" from you! I have some film suggestions for you down the road, if you haven't seen them already: 'Forbidden Planet' (1956) starring ... Leslie Nielsen! 'Fail Safe' (1964). 'Sexy Beast' (2000). 'Strangers on a Train' (1951) directed by Alfred Hitchcock. 'Broadway Danny Rose' (1984) written, directed & starring Woody Allen.

Ship CB II

Your greatest reaction thus far! You stated comic book films/media is not your passion. I'm the same. This film is the exception of all the exceptions ever! LOL You hit every single point with genuine surprise and conviction. The whole package was perfect in this one. Nolan's vision, the key cast, then of course Ledger topped them all! Well done Coby. You are the top personality doing this work for me. 😊

Kevin

You really should check out Batman Mask Of The Phantasm. Animated feature that came out in theaters near Christmas in 1993. It's Amazing.

Andy

DaveV21 is correct you should definitely check out 'SEXY BEAST' which is one of my favioute gangster films and don't forget my list which I sent below.

Andy

Do check out Rollerball 1975 and not the awful remake, the original is a film I rather like unlike some.
