The Greatest Comic Book Film EVER... got your attention, Haters?

Rating: 10/10 (3 September 2008)

Here's the thing, I like to read what is on IMDb and gauge what other people think about films, it'd be healthy debate if it weren't for the anonymity and venom. The one thing that kills me about IMDb is the haters and you know who you are.
If you wrote "WORST MOVIE EVER" in the summary or any part of the text, if you talk about how "everyone" in the theatre "looked" disgruntled, if you use terms like "character development", "Cliche" or other terms that you really don't have the right to use unless you work as a reviewer for a reputable newspaper (no websites DO NOT count, unless they pay per word) and finally you are a HATER if you vote low because you don't agree with the ranking "I would normally give this film 6/10 but because of the ridiculous voting on IMDb, i'm giving it 1/10". You are purposefully sabotaging a film because you have something against it, believe it's over hyped or whatever. That is wrong.
Holding up 'The Godfather' and 'Pulp Fiction' doesn't change the fact that people legitimately like this film. They don't vote 10 because they are idiots, or lack motor functions or any other insult you deem "necessary". They are fans of a particular film, it doesn't matter which one, but they are fans. Get over yourselves, stop ruining people's ability to enjoy a film, regardless of what problems you have with it.
As for the film, I thought it was great, I've seen it twice. I might even see it a third time just to try and find all those plot holes the haters have so unkindly pointed out.
Heath was great, forget Nicholson's campy portrayal and forget Caesar Romero. I don't say that because I am a fan of Heath Ledger or because he is dead, 75% of his films I cannot watch, in fact it might be more. Two Hands is the only film of his, off the top of my head, that I actually like.
I have two small problems with the film: 1. The new batsuit made Batman seem less imposing and the symbol was too small. 2. The way in which Harvey Dent died, i don't have a problem with the end, through the whole film Alfred kept saying that Batman could be hated and he sacrificed Batman's status as a hero to keep Harvey Dent's image as the "white knight" intact.
I gave the film 10/10, not to bump it up and not because i'm an idiot as some haters like to suggest. I liked the film and think that 10/10 is what it's worth. Haters, you might be a majority on IMDb, but you're a minority in the world, maybe that's why 'The Dark Knight' is marching toward $925 million world wide.
