1) Holy $hit we’re old.
2) It’s still the best “comic book” movie of all time.

Man.. the opening sequence was amazing
The 18 wheeler flip was like a canon experience for me
My eyes almost popped out of my skull at that moment

That’s fricking crazy
I remember feeling absolutely exhausted in the best way after leaving the theater. Incredible movie.

It’s the ultimate representation of what I always imagined Gotham City and its inhabitants to be like. Almost every character feels like everyone is trying to nail the source the best they can and they do.

Much more a crime thriller than superhero movie. Nolan at his best.

That midnight showing was electric. Still top 3 or so movie theater experience

It’s such a basic concept and they still struggle to make good films. Matt Reeves gets it regards to his Batman

I went to the late show in the Opry cinema in Nashville. I think the niche started at 1am. It was so late when I got out but we weren't tired. That was a hyped up movie.

Everyone at the Mall of LA started running towards the imax theater to get seats once the doors opened. The line was wrapped around the building a couple hours before midnight

McG could have done the same film with half the budget.

I watched it on a bootleg in Baghdad the week after release.
It was still pretty good.

I still go back and watch the teaser trailer sometimes with Ledger’s iconic joker laugh at the end. I remember seeing it for the first time thinking this is gonna be amazing.
My cousins and I went opening night at midnight to the Rave theater on oneal and it’s the only time I’ve ever seen that massive parking lot completely full. They had about 14 different auditoriums all showing it and when you bought a ticket you just had to pick one. It was an absolute mad house. We showed up late and got fricked with one of those miserable front row seats right up on the screen. Ruined the experience.

Yep, friends and I did the midnight showing too. It was a very memorable experience. Right up there with Return of the King.

Great movie saw it on theater twice. I actually slightly prefer Batman begins on the trilogy.
Currently my second favorite big theater Nolan movie. I don't think anything will top Interstellar in IMAX

I was working at AMC when it came out
Longest run I've ever seen for a movie in my 4-5 years of working there
The night time showings were still nearly selling out two months after the release

The midnight release is still one of my favorite theater experiences. That was such a fun movie.

I guess it was much bigger domestically than internationally bc I can’t figure out how it only barely topped a billion bc it just played on forever.

And he got reelected 14 yrs. ago. Are we talking about the same thing?

Mind boggling
I’ll watch it once in a while with my surround sound VERY loud.

Came out a month before I started college. It remains to this day the best experience I’ve had in a theater.
You just knew you were seeing something special.
