I saw it tonight, too, and am still in a state of happy shock. Isn't Bale bee-yoo-tiful??
I just posted a drooly squee over at TWoP, saying that I *now* totally get Clark-Lex-Bruce slash, where I really didn't before.
But mostly, it's a wonderful revival of the Batman franchise, after all those terrible things Schumacher did to it. I just loved how intelligent it was, how the character development made sense, how respectful the writers and producers were of each and every character. I even liked the Katie Holmes character, even though I saw no chemistry to speak of between her and Bruce Wayne.
Plus, visually, it was so amazing and lush. I saw it in an IMAX theater, and really think I need to see it again on a regular screen, because on IMAX the visuals are, well, overwhelming.
Oh, you've got to see mkitty_03's Something vid--it's Brex, and it's brilliant!
I agree with everything you say about the movie, it was everything I hoped it would be--Batman was chilling, he really was the Dark Knight in this film. All the crap has been swept away, and we're ready for more, yes?
Bale is amazing as Batman, and amazing as Bruce. I'm in love!
