This is the day!!!

So today is the day. I've been waiting almost 5 months for this day to arrive and it's finally here. This is the day!!! I can barely contain my feelings about what happens today. It's so exciting. Can you feel it? There is a kind of excitement in the air...an electricity even. Today is the day that Batman: The Dark Knight hits stores on Blu Ray and DVD. I want to run out to Movie Gallery and pick it up and watch it...over and over and over again.

This is a movie that made nearly 1 billion dollars in the worldwide box office. It is a movie that has had genuine Oscar buzz and saw Heath Ledger give an Oscar caliber performance as Joker. It is dark and it is big and it is worth watching.

It speaks to our culture in it's characters. We have those who desire to do what is good and right and needed. We have those who simply want to watch the world burn as Alfred says. It says that there are times that we must shoulder the blame even when it isn't really ours to shoulder. I think this is in part what made this movie so very successful. Peace and Love y'all.
