"Madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is just one little push!"

Or maybe not.

I watched "The Dark Knight" for the 2nd time on Wednesday. And this time, it was at GSC's Gold Class.

The Lounge


The best I could do with the extremely dim lighting

What does one get for RM 40 tickets? Other than the super-comfy reclining leather couches - nothing else. But then again, this was "THE DARK KNIGHT"!

The last time I watched a movie, Gold Class was when we watched "Pearl Harbor" at Crown Casino, Melbourne.

The hall was empty except for the both of us watching the movie. Hell, even the lounge area was completely empty.

"The Dark Knight" has broken even more box office records.

Warner Bros. Pictures' The Dark Knight broke another record on Tuesday becoming the fastest ever to cross the $200 million mark in five days! The previous record of eight days was held by three films - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, Spider-Man 2 and Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.

Christopher Nolan's Batman Begins follow-up added $20.87 million on Tuesday to push its massive total to $203.8 million. That puts it at #84 already on the all-time domestic blockbuster list after just five days.

Right now, the only number we have for international markets is $41.3 million but that will start going up significantly as the movie is opening in many countries Thursday and Friday as well as into August.

So let's recap - widest release (4,366 theaters), biggest midnight opening ($18.5M), biggest opening weekend ($158.4M), biggest July opener ($158.4M), biggest PG-13 rated opening ($158.4M), biggest single day ($67.2M), biggest opening day ($67.2M), biggest Friday ($67.2M), biggest Sunday ($43.6M), biggest IMAX opening ($6.3M) and fastest to $200M in five days ($203.8M).

It looks like its well on its way to be the most successful Batman movie to-date. Not surprising when there are maniacs like me watching the movie more than once. There are some people who have already watched it 4 - 5 times.

There must be a reason why people are watching it more than once, isn't there?

I also managed to catch:

"Hellboy 2: The Golden Army" was enjoyable, but its no "The Dark Knight"!

"X-Files: I Want To Believe" actually opens today but it just doesn't have that pull to make me want to go watch it right away. I do have the urge to watch all 9 seasons of the TV series again though. Or was it 10 seasons?

Found the new logo for the next Transformers movie, "Transformers: The Rise Of The Fallen".

Well, its not much of a logo but..... I'll be waiting for that.

Also, something I've been kinda waiting for - "Heroes" Season 3!

Season 3 starts on 22nd September 2008. Can't wait!

The previous versions of the Hot Toys "The Dark Knight" suit Batman figure was inaccurate. The cowl was the wrong shape, and the shoulder pads/armour was a wee bit large.

Prototype Dark Knight suit


Modified suit - shoulder pads and cowl modified (mouth area more movie accurate)

Medicom The Dark Knight 12-inch figure

For now, the Medicom version looks like its the most movie-accurate version. However, Medicom's stuff are more expensive and they have some known quality issues.

I think Hot Toys did a smashing job there..... plus I've already got it pre-ordered.

Now, the Tumbler and the Batpod.....
