Went to see the Dark Knight this weekend- it was about 99% as good as I had hoped. Ledger's joker was... how do I even describe it? I could see how the character got into his head. He wasn't twisted in the "crook with a clown motif", but twisted in the "you'd be scared to talk to him even if he were strapped to a table with no possible way of touching you." Just the little twitches, licking of lips, change in tempo of his voice (from sing-song to vicious, to sing-song again), the way he sows chaos with the glee of a child who's out of school. Liked the way the movie set-up Batman's reason for being hunted by the cops so much. Bale got a bit growly at the end in the Batman persona, and a particular use of character I disagreed with, but all in all, completely worth the full price ticket.

Toilet's in. Sink's in. Both work. Now it's what I dub 'non-essentials'... decorations, TP stand, etc. Well, there's the light fixture, but we have that. Just need to install it. Then, mirror, towel ring, picture, and... huh. Just the floorboard and caulking, and we're set!
