Ace of Jokers - its always on me

Ever since the movie trailors and promo’s started on the tele and you kept getting pieces of information at some instance or another, the Dark Knight seemed to catch the minds of people in a new way, in a different way. You read rave reviews on the actor who played joker (the aura of his acting further pushed into the annals of history as the best ever with his untimely death due to an overdose). It did catch even my imagination and I was very enthusiastic on watching the movie myself with the feeling of becoming a kid again following the caped crusader jumping over roof tops in my dreams as a child. The movie in itself was good, it took every turn it had to take and ran through the motions that it was expected to have, every serious batman follower will tell you that. It was here that I noticed a few chinks not only in the cartoon hero but within myself. Here I was going through the motions but holding back because of a number of reasons. Its really surprising to me that I hold back my enthusiasm because of my surroundings, its really surprising that I can allow myself to be taken in by society and what they say so easily, its really surprising that I could not allow the subject of my discussion here its just position but in turn went in to an immediate comparison chart to finally build and bill it as a classic, a good movie, worth a watch or a waste of money.

If i understand right, u having to hold back our enthu (how?) is the primary issue here. I thought you enjoyed yourself, didn't u?

yep, i enjoyed myself :)

the idea is to ride the batmobile with the crusader, the imagination is to fly from one building to another without (realistically impossible) breaking a bone or making a noise, the want is to feel the fear that is enacted within the movie or cartoon. is that possible? It is but only in one's imagination and so in reality, you have to control your enthusiasm for these, isnt it? Thus i wrote... :)
