Gotham needs you | The Dark Knight [4k, HDR, IMAX] 

It kept getting sold out there, but I held out until I got to see it there. Boy, was it worth it!

I saw DKR in theatres but sadly not this.

L7ckyDuck what kinda parents do you have?

Saw interstellar in IMAX too 😁

I got to see it at the movies again in IMAX in 2018 for the 10 year anniversary re-release. It's unbelievable in IMAX lol

😂😂

mrbrockpeters Ik it’s a joke

Bale in the MCU lol

its a bummer that he passed and i am deeply saddened by it but the ending could not have been better

I always thought if Heath was still alive if anything he would’ve played the part that scarecrow did in the third movie, The judge or whatever. But I also think the joker is too big of a character for him to play such a small role. Honestly better that’s hes not in it and we wonder where he’s at

@@darrinidontcare9526 he probably would have killed bane himself near the end and steered the plan in his own direction. Joker is the main antagonist, always.

People replying to your comment seem confused about how TDK is a masterpiece and one of the best films ever made, whereas the other 2 films in the trilogy are just good films.

@@darrinidontcare9526 wasn’t that confirmed somewhere? I’ve head about the Joker playing the judge before too

Raph 22 Also a call back to the fact that the only injury batman withstood in the film that was explicitly shown was the one dealt by the hounds in the beginning, ensuing the whole suit changes. The Joker makes a couple of allusions to dogs in his lines. I remember I thought that that was so subtle and so brilliant at the time.

yeah, at 0.36. always wondered why dogs stick their head out and seem to be enjoying the wind blowing in their faces. ? is it that they get multiple odours and want to trace the source OR like joker, enjoy the wind blowing through their hair and cooling them down, feeling happy that he outwitted batman and gordon ? joker does say to dent in gotham general, i am like a dog who chases a car not knowing what he will do when he eventually catches it.

But accually he isnt all about chaos. He focuses on specific people, that want to make the city a better place by eliminating the chaos, but by doing that they are accually the source of the chaos. It is like in the metaphor from Alfred. They are trying to catch a thief, that in their mind only wants the world ro burn. And how ate they chasing him? By burning down the whole forest. If the thiefs goal was to be the source of chaos, he just could have done the same. Just like Alfred, the Batman and the police are trying to solve the citys problem of chaos, but by doing that they are making it worse, because the mob is now forced ro expand and expand. While Batman only makes the mob stronger, the joker accually eliminates all the mafias by burning all their money and killing their leaders.

Don't trust him.

@@kamiyobeats7365 greatest

The second act feels like a dark ending to the film, you thought it's ending on a bitter note with Rachel dead and Harvey lying peacefully in hospital. But no, it carries on and gets even darker and better. *HAHAHAHAHAHAHA*

Yep putting out false hope to keep Gotham from finding out about dent’s killings was dirty and ultimately went out the window when bane revealed the truth.

Well done tragedy.

Ohh. I think i’m the Only person here who wanted Joker to win or escape then ...

Technically due to the original plans of the trilogy, the joker did technically escape. It’s mindblowing to me how mind boggling the joker is, because he truly makes you wonder how powerless Gotham is to him, and how much he outsmarts everything.

*One of the greatest movies ever made.

Jack Simmons The first movie not as good the last two where awesome

Jack Simmons Literally literally? Literally literally

@@ryans413 Third movie was utter trash. I think you were probably too young to watch the first movie in theatres.

InvictuZ No im 29 I just didn’t like the first one we spend more then half the movie with Liam Neeson with monks and it did not feel like a Batman movie at all. I get it’s the Bruce Wane becoming Batman but the only parts I found interesting when they showed his parents dying and Bruce finding the bat cave other then that the whole Scarecrow thing felt like it was just thrown in there to have some action I didn’t like it.

@@ryans413 That's fair, I really only feel strongly about the last one, it felt flat and dragged on for so long. I see what you're saying about the first one, I guess I give it points for being the origin story. But the last one was just disappointing, sorry if I was rude.

Plot twist: it was Alfred that wanted to watch the whole world burn.

Simply Nonsense than again , joker did burn trees , if paper is made out of wood , and paper money being green like trees , he did burn the forest down , a forest made of money , while Alfred burned a forest because of money , not that money is bad , only to make a point i guess , not about money , about sending a message

i would guess the message is to people who get so much money that it buys them , you see them when they don’t know what to do with all that money , because the initial intent was to get much money , not get money to do something , some achievement, and when you bring them the most important thing of all times , that requires some of their money , they aren’t moved , because all they want is money , not gold or glory , high art , heavenly everything, they just don’t care , they have money , their ultimate goal , what’s sad though is ‘they don’t work , they let work , and than have to keep diets’ , they don’t eat better than the poor man , by far worse , ‘they drive cars’ so does the poor man ‘they have girls’ , have you noticed , some of the most beautiful girls are to be found at some poor ppl places , the girls i see in the streets i don’t see walking the red carpet , no way , ‘they have big houses where they avoid their few family members all day’ , i was at not rich peoples family diners and hangouts etc , it’s strangely epic fun , until they get money , and even though they have the greatest things , they lose those by that panic ‘money money money’ , than they become poor life rich people (when they get money they get a certain lifestyle , a little arrogance or pride , and expensive things , than for all the people that visited them , it becomes a little difficult to visit them , the still poor people think now they’re better and stand back , and they lose the fun they had with social life , visits hanging out , most importantly satisfying conversations that cannot be performed with the by then rich who tell you they’re better by ignoring your talk , not engaging in conversation , holding themselves high)

One of my favorite exchanges. They had to destroy an entire forest to catch one man. Bruce was never willing to sacrifice Gotham, but the Joker tested that to the absolute limit. If we had gotten him in the third installment that would have been such an epic finale.

This movie nearly pushed Bruce to become a vigilante. He even tells Rachel “I see what I will have to become to stop men like [Joker].” And Maroni tells Bruce no one will tell him anything because he is ultimately a hero. So Bruce has to ask himself “How much damage do I have to do to catch one man?”

He’s like a dog sticking his head out the window to take in that pure chaos flowing through the air. That kinda lines up with his “dog chasing cars” line later in the film.

@@u121386funniest shii i seen by da joker dawg dis nigga so funny bro dis joker right chea da best

Yea it's such a good shot. Credit to Nolan. These movies are so much better than 89', The Joker, or the Pattinson one. I actually kind of liked Batfleck, and enjoyed BVS, but obviously the Snyderverse didn't quite work out. I don't like that in this woke world run amok, when you watch the newest Batman, you can tell who is a good character or not by if they are race changed. Literally watch the movie. Anyone who appears, if they are black, you know they are good. If they are white, you know they are bad. Outside of Batman and Alfred of course - though that's coming. Probably within the decade.

Define woke,now.@@hansolo631

@@lickenhuntsman5338 The Dark Knight trilogy>prime MCU>Joker>the Batman movies like black panther and infinity war were respectable because you could take them seriously unlike the films after endgame

Bats shouldn't have given him back the coin

It didn't get nominated but the Academy knew it should have been. It was for this very reason that the following year,10 movies were nominated for Best Picture instead of the usual 5. The Dark Knight was snubbed but it paved the way for other similar movies - commercial blockbusters of artistic merit to be in the running for Best Picture.

S X exactly it more or less set the frame work or standard for movies to come ,is it any wonder that Nolan’s Unreleased joker scripts he gets offered millions from other big directors ? That speaks volumes

@RainbowDreams30 Have you heard the gospel of Jesus Christ before? God's holy word the Bible teaches us that we have all sinned, we have all done things our God given conscience tells us are wrong, that keep us from experiencing His holiness and goodness in our lives. Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Sins such as using His name in vain, to use the name of the God who created us and gave us life, without respect or reverence, and worse, often with disrespect, jesting or even hatred. Exodus 20:7 “Thou shalt not take the name of the LORD thy God in vain; for the LORD will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.” God is a just, holy and righteous God and in His love and goodness He must punish sin. If we are living sinful lives, breaking the ten commandments, and not acknowledging God in our hearts, God must punish us for our wickedness. God must send us to hell, a place of torment, weeping and gnashing of teeth, where all unrepentant sinners will go. Since we all have sinned, and fallen short, how can we be saved from this eternal place? Romans 5:8 “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” The good news, the gospel, is that God was born of a virgin, lived a perfect, sinless and holy life, as Jesus of Nazareth, and sacrificed Himself for our sins. He shed His blood and died on the cross and took upon Himself the wrath of the Father so that we might go free. After being crucified, he was buried in a tomb, and then as prophesied, resurrected by the power of God and defeated sin, death and hell. Whosoever believes in Him and follows Him will have eternal life! Forgiven of all sin, saved from death and hell and given a new heart to truly know Him. That is the mercy and love that Christ showed on the cross. He was perfect, yet died for imperfect people like us. Please take the time, you are not promised tomorrow, to read these next verses humbly and honestly and pray for God to forgive you of your sin and grant you His Holy Spirit and forgiveness in Jesus Christ. God bless you in Jesus' mighty name! Amen. Romans 10:9 “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 14:6 “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” John 11:25-26 "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?"

Is he driving or it's a passenger?

Revolver Ocelot I’m pretty sure Lao is the one who’s driving he’s in the back seat.

@Emir Lau is driving, while joker is in the back seat.

Anyezka looool as if Lao is swerving it up in the road that’s gotta be one of the jokers goons driving Laos prob in the boot or something

@Max Westland good point actually. Never thought of that.

It is also meant to represent him and Rachel

And the way he acts every single time he flips the coin and it lands on black, he's gone so deep in that ke prefers darkness over light after what the joker did

No he’s at first happy to see the coin because he gave it to Rachel and when he sees that it’s clean he thinks she survived

Err no. Its a metaphore of doing what is necessary eventhough theyre breaking the laws. Exactly what Batman does after this when he put the whole gotham under surveillance illegaly.

Yeahh, it has absolutely nothing to do with what the original comment suggested lol

The way a child thinks.

"But you can feel them more deeply."

Its a similar Sound to the Joker. I think the Sound with Harvey symbolizes Harvey turning insane.

I can't believe Bruce's reaction to the truth about Rachel is short in the third movie

​@@yudhazacharias9377is short?

@@nathant.6256 I meant the look on his face before he says "How dare you". It's short

@@yudhazacharias9377Bruce is in denial at that time.

You are absolutely right. Anyone who says this role killed him, doesnt know the true essence of his acting. That it’s “believable” to spark a rumor that this role influenced his passing. He very very very much enjoyed the role as he said himself in the interviews about it. I think he even said it was the most fun he would EVER have in a role. I wish I could thank him myself for providing us with his artwork

0:48 is magnificent too.

Facts

0:52 💯💯💯

Meh, maybe top 200

I know! All that had to happen was for the love of his life to be killed. Daenerys was completely random and Anakin Skywalker was ok I guess.

I agree about Danaerys but Anakin had a huge buildup to his turn to the dark side

@@aurelien5747 yep.. anakin always had thay rage brewing and had experience murdering women in children before he did the younglinga. Daenerys was just hungry and needed a snicker bar.

yeah ikr, it's so sad... Harvey didn't mind being the one perishing instead of Rachel, but he was totally crushed when he saw Batman break down the door (Batman himself was just as shocked that Joker switched the addresses, playing on Batman's weakness when he dived out to save Rachel in an earlier encounter). It didn't help that he fell on a puddle of gasoline which spilled out from an oil drum he accidentally toppled over. As he was taken to hospital, Harvey was still holding on to the hope that Rachel would survive, even when he was still in agonizing pain. The moment he saw one side of his lucky coin scorched and scratched, that gave him the painful answer as to what happened to Rachel. And that's where he lost his sanity, and he was better off dead, now that the love of his life had been tragically taken away from him. A loss that he finds it hard to accept, a loss that compels him to go down a dark path and decide the fates of others with the flip of his coin. The tragedy of Harvey in this film is IMO like a literature masterpiece, similar to Macbeth or Hamlet.

@@aurelien5747 yeah Anakin's torment beginning with the death of his mother and subsequent massacre of the Tusken Raider camp. The next 3 years spent hiding his marital status from the Jedi Order, and wrestling with his inner demons (eg frustrations with the Jedi Code). Until Palpatine revealed his true identity to him and gave him an offer he can't refuse... that's when Anakin made the choice to become Sidious' apprentice and betray the Jedi. And with his turn, he also began to lose his humanity and logic.

@L Acting> Voice acting

Anton Chigurh?

Cap

His psychological pain (his inability to accept Rachel's death) is so much worse than his physical pain (his half-burnt face)

Tanat Pruett This sequence is very moving for me. He couldn’t protect Rachel, his career is effectively over, Joker is using him. A lot of pain and brutality to his birth.

Also with Dent referring to the Joker as “A mad dog” to Maroni later in the movie.

@@ironhide5611 not mad dog he addressed joker as a human dog

No the scene where joker delivers the line "I'm a dog chasing cars" was when Harvey Dent was in the hospital and when he sticks his head out of the police car Dent was in his way towards the hospital with half of his face burned down ....... So the Epic line was delivered later by Ledger and then he blows up the Gotham general hospital

General Joker

"See, madness, as you know, is... like gravity. All it takes is a little push."

Pure chaos energy

Joker struck gold with Rachel. The moment he found out that both Batman and Dent loved her, she was marked for death

Joker at Dinner party: 'You know, I'll settle for his loved ones.'

Doesn't the Joker win in this one, turning Harvey Dent. All he needed was a little push.

Nah, that's his Boston accent. Don't ask me why he uses this accent for the movie, I've no idea.
