For those interested, a two-headed 1922 Peace dollar is prominently featured in several scenes.

    LOL, I posted this yesterday, but somehow that thread went poof! That was a cool movie. I took off after after I started the thread, so I don't know if a friday night KAPOW! fight broke out, or the mods just didn't think a peace dollar in a movie was coin related! image

    rg was the movie any good? Gimme a quick review!

    I went last night to see Hancock and the Batman lines were out and around the building! I had to park a couple blocks away!
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.



    The name is LEE!

    I really liked it, it is 2 1/2 hours and I never got bored. Actually, we took the girls (5 and 9 y/o) and they made it through too. The first one was slow in places I thought (Batman Begins), but this one had some cool lines, especially the joker, and lots of action throughout. There was a lot of I didn't see that coming in it too, at least to me! So all in all, without giving away the plot, I would say two thumbs up! Heath Ledger was definitely something to see by himself in this one. image

    Amazing movie! Very fast paced action, but not for kids due to violence. Ledger was amazing!

    REALLY good movie. One of the best movies I've ever seen, in fact.

  • They managed to make a sequel worth watching and leaving you wanting a trilogy...similar to LOTR for those who enjoyed that series.

    Guys, please tell me you did NOT go to the movie wearing a cowl and cape! Our local newspaper ran a front-page picture of one such local Batman fan waiting in line for tickets to the premier last night. My only thought was - man I hope he is not also a board member! image

    We took the grandsons today and they loved the movie...and I agree, Heath Ledger was great!!!! Christian Bale (I think that's his name) as Batman wasn't too shabby either.

    Liked it a lot. I'm a coin geek, not a batman geek. No Batman costume for me- I was looking for a moustache or scar cheek on that coin...

    I would never in a million years wear a cowl and cape to the movie. I wore full Joker makeup!

  • I'm shocked about the guy who took a 5 year old and a 9 year old to see this movie. My kids are the same age and I would NEVER let them see this movie until they are a good bit older. There are some very distrubing scenes and it would be nightmare central at my house.

    I guess everyone has a different take on parenting, but as I said that just struck me as being odd.

    1918 Liberty Head Dollars figured prominently in the Simpsons.

    Grandpa Simpson explains, "I leave as inheritance these: a box of mint-condition 1918 liberty-head silver dollars. You see, back in those days, rich men would ride around in Zeppelins, dropping coins on people, and one day I seen J. D. Rockefeller flying by. So I run of the house with a big washtub and… hey! Where are you going?"

    By the time he got that far in his story the Simpsons were going into the Springfield Mall to spend them.
