I mean, it's already August, and I'm already starting to consider various New Year's eve plans... Is it just me, or has this year completely flown by?

Great flick, in my opinion. Most of the reviews I’ve read about the new Batman movie describe a good, but not great film, with Heath Ledger as “The Joker” stealing the show.
