Doesn't take credit cards? Is it not one of the major theatres? (some derivative of AMC, Lowes, Regal, etc.)

oh no.

Super Troopers 2 would most likely make 200 million.

maybe.....the first was great but the fact that the this type of movie doesnt attract as many as something like Iron man, BM, etc

It provides some background, so you should probably watch it first.

That way you'll get the most out of the new one.

It wouldn't ruin the movie. You'd get everything, just none of the character development from the last movie.

You'd be fine.

are you kidding me? the first one is such a cult classic that i'm sure people would go to see it all over the world....

I just saw batman today and I really liked it. It wasn't as cartoony as previous ones. The Batman Begins and this one are more of a modern portrayal of the series. The joker was excellent. There weren't many people in the theatre when I saw it and at the end someone tried to start a round of applause and he failed miserably. He clapped about 3 times and realized nobody else was clapping and he stopped lol.

I saw The Dark Knight: The IMAX Experience on Sunday and it was visually breathtaking. If you live anywhere close to an IMAX theater, see it in IMAX!!

And at the end the audience in our theater cheered and clapped. I actually thought it was quite fitting to one of the best movies of the year.

i am just saying that IMO it wont atract say they families, older ppl for the most part(40s and up), or young teenagers as something like BM will
