I loved the Dark Knight. It was fun, but it was also dark and difficult to watch. The film was experimental (for a comic book movie) that was a contrast to the big loud and also terrific Iron Man a couple of months ago.

And as for Heath Ledger’s Joker, I present my Twitter comments from soon after seeing the film:
Seriously, he’s one scary mofo. I don’t want to be Batman anymore.
I’m a republican at heart, but some things just shouldn’t be tampered with. This morning when thinking about the issue of whether Australia should be looking to rule itself, and cut ties with the British monarchy, only one thing played on my mind as a possibly unintentional consequence of such a move.

This issue should not be taken lightly. Whilst it is a slim possibility, even a remote chance should be enough to halt all talks of such a change until this issue can be sorted out.
Would the Brits still send us new episodes of Dr. Who?

This was my first ever request for comment about any product, so I dutifully starred it in Gmail and promised myself I’d look at it when I could. Well, the wait is over. I thought I’d set it up today and give it a go. This post is part review, but mostly feedback at the moment as the product is only at version 0.3 and not ready for prime time.

★★★★★ Scott was at the Information desk of the Blackwood branch of the Commonwealth Bank and was most informative and helpful. He remembered me by name when I came back later on in the day to complete my business and had me fixed up very quickly. His obvious knowledge of the ins-and-outs of his business made the whole experience very pleasant. This hReview brought to you by the hReview Creator.
I was thinking the other day that I have a wonderful way of thanking someone for excellent service. I can’t find any reference to this guy on the net today, but in the future this might be one of the places that someone learns about Scott’s interpersonal skills. They say that a lot of employers Google your name before they hire you. There’s also a lot of negative info about people and companies that have screwed people over. I want to start adding a bit of positive info to the net.
Thank you Scott. I’ll be calling your employer to pass on my thanks, but this review is my way of saying “nice work”.
I’ve included this ‘hreview‘ as a test of the format.
