Alrighty. Just saw TDK for the first time yesterday. Yes, it was a good movie, but my lord I was expecting the second coming or something from all the hype and responses here. Yes, Ledger was terrific as the Joker, and all of the cast was great (except the woman who played Rachael, barf). I wouldn't call it the best movie ever, or the best action/whatever genre you want to put in there ever. It was a good movie though, worth seeing multiple times :)

As for the next movie, there are plenty, plenty of bad guys they can bring in for the movie, but most of them people would never have heard of (except comic nerds like me). I would love to see Nolan's take on Poison Ivy for example. But The Riddler, The Penguin and Catwoman are obvious choices due to name.

One of the challenges I see for the next movie is how they will tie the next villain into the story while Batman is no longer a beacon of hope, but is now a hated and hunted man. Different stories in a single movie wouldn't do it justice, so I think whoever will write the next script has a tough task ahead.

I'm curious how Nolan will finish off the Joker's character. I expected the Joker to die or be captured within the first scene of the 3rd movie. If he folllows the same formula from Batman Begins, 2 villians, 1 dies, 1 lives. In TDK, one died, and the other lived. I doubt he would have been brought back for the remainder of the movie, even if Heath was alive. Anyone know where to get some cool Batman Posters, like prints, not downloads, we have Rappy for that.

^ aww is that the frosted glass one? I'd love the one of batman made out of cards.

No its him holding a card, I think the only place you are going to find the batman made out of cards is on allposters or somewhere at the back of Empire film magazine if you can get hold of that.

This image is amazing because his face looks so real (although you can see where it ends on his face if you view the full size). I read in some interview or something he wasn't wearing regular makeup it was like some sort of new mask and my god it looks like it's just makeup on him. Awesome.

I'm anxiously awaiting a Blu-Ray release. I'm really hoping there will be a ton of special features on it too, specifically "the making of..." special features and interviews. I really like watching that type of stuff.

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....
