Sam and Natalia watch the most famous and acclaimed Christopher Nolan film, THE DARK KNIGHT.

THE DARK KNIGHT (2008) is the superhero-action sequel to BATMAN BEGINS. The film follows Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale), Commissioner Gordon (Gary Oldman), and Harvey 'Two-Face' Dent (Aaron Eckhart) as they attempt to dismantle organised crime in Gotham, until their plans are derailed by Batman's most notorious villain, the Joker (Heath Ledger).

You know what THE DARK KNIGHT is. We know what THE DARK KNIGHT is. Is it overrated? Or merely 'rated'?

Topics of conversation include whether THE DARK KNIGHT is overrated, BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN, Jared Leto being a better Joker than Heath Ledger, not liking THE DARK KNIGHT to be cool, popcorn flicks, meaty plots, subtitling the Batman voice, "Thiscityjustproveditselfreadytobelieveingood", Maggie Gyllenhaal versus Katie Holmes, "Like a leper!", and 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU.
