I EVEN HAVE A (somewhat relevant) ICON

In Chiang Mai now. Currently on Ma's couch, delving in the wonders of the internet (and cursing the slowish net and what seems to be Thailand blocking most of the Youtube vids and the entire veoh.com webpage).

Was in town yesterday, met up with Migel and Lisa(+friend of hers) and it turned out to be more awesome than I expected. But what was even more than I already expected to be mindblowingly great was .....THE DARK KNIGHT. HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!

What follows is a short and unspoilery depiction of my movie watching experience, using emoticons and exclamation marks:
:O :O :O!!!!!!!! !! O_O O_O;;!! *_*!! O__________________O!!!!!! !! ! ♥! :D :D :D!! T3T! :O :O :O!
...okay, I tire of this gimmick. But seriously, one of the best movies I've seen so far this year. It hit all the high notes of ACTION(....SO MANY SCENES OF AWE)!! PLOT (SUPER TWISTY AND COHERANT WOAH)!! CINEMATOGRAPHY (GOTHAAAAM! HONGKONG SKYLIIIINE!) and CHARACTERS!! It was such a jam-packed cast(Christian Bale! Aaron Eckhart! Gary Oldman! ETC!) and the movie succeeded into making everyone interesting and sympathetic and oh the tiny tiny details in some of the scenes that made me clutch my hands in joy and/or poke Migel and go 'DID YOU SEE THAT?! :O'.

ALSO, HEATH LEDGER. Akjfkmfh the Joker was a joy to watch on screen. So. Damn. Creepy. He seriously got the best lines. And every time I saw him on screen I'd go 'he's dead in RL! Dead! :(((' and bum myself out, but that stopped once I got really sucked in to the movie and then returned with a vengeance once we left the kinosaal. GAAAH. It would be cool if they give him the post-humous Oscar for this, because can we say Holy Hell ICONIC PERFORMANCE BATMAN??

WHO ELSE HAS WATCHED IT? I need someone to spoilery-squee with! GO WATCH IT!

and the world's my oyster, fangirlism, movies, squee, happy happy joy joy, rl
