I’m generally not one to go to a flick on opening weekend. I usually let the die hard followers get their seats first. But for The Dark Knight, the latest installment in the Batman series, there was no waiting around.
But I got lucky. The fictional comic book superhero nearly sold out the 9:50pm showing on Sunday night at Regal Short Pump. The line just to get in auditorium 14 started almost an hour before they cleaned it and opened it up.
It was well worth the wait. Christian Bale (when he’s not allegedly hitting his family) plays a great Batman. And Heath Ledger is brilliant as the psychopathic clown, the Joker.
Two and a half hours later, I wanted to watch it again, this time in IMAX. The Dark Knight Director Christopher Nolan shot four major action sequences and quiet dramatic scenes in IMAX format.
I checked the Science Museum of Virginia to see what films were playing at the IMAX Dome. But much to my dismay, the only current box office movie available in the format is about a panda bear doing martial arts.
The closest IMAX showing of The Dark Knight is at the Virginia Air & Space Center in Hampton, VA – quite the letdown.
The Science Museum of Virginia notes that its IMAX schedule is “subject to change.” Anytime they want to add The Dark Knight to the docket, it will be a change for the better!
