Gambol

The Joker did not kill Gambol in the Dark Knight. You can see Gambol later in the movie handcuffed and being put into a police cruiser. Confirmed by a quick glimpse of a scar to his face (mouth). Vicestrike (talk) 22:32, 16 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On the note of deaths, Dent did not kill both corrupt cops. He spared Ramirez. That's actually extremely important and central to Dent's character, so it should be corrected. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.30.148.108 (talk) 22:38, 19 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cat

Can someone add Categorry:American crime drama films? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.27.177.35 (talk) 00:08, 19 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Maroni

Maroni dying is unknown, and given that Two-Face wasn't deterred much by the crash (and was very unlikely to have gotten medical aid), its likely that Maroni survived with a medium level of injury. 120.146.78.183 (talk) 09:06, 5 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit Request

{{Edit semi-protected}} Can somebody change the sentence "By comparison, Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 top reviews from mainstream critics, calculated an average score of 82, based on 39 reviews." to "By comparison, Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating in the 0-100 range based on reviews from top mainstream critics, calculated an average score of 82, based on 39 reviews." Rough Melody (talk) 21:05, 14 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, thanks. I'm assuming the change in emphasis is because Metacritic scores actually do fill the 0-100 range as described at Metacritic. Adrian J. Hunter(talkcontribs) 03:22, 15 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Is it possible for me to add receptions from Japanese movie critics and award sites? I got some with me. Ominae (talk) 05:09, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The Dark Knight (film)The Dark Knight — Most people who search for "The Dark Knight" at Wikipedia are looking for the very popular recent movie. I'm positive traffic statistics would bear this out. It seems silly to have a disambiguation page with the movie, a nickname for the main character in that movie, some theme park rides, a comic, etc. CWenger (talk) 05:13, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
