Planned on it tonight, but some of the comments are starting to put me off the idea.
DO NOT get me wrong, I have been waiting a long time to watch this and can't wait, but it sounds like there's some remaining continuity issues to be worked out.
@ChainsawAsh: I find it ironic that you reference Dark Knight as a movie that isn't trying to set up for a sequel.
Batman Begins was designed to be exactly that while still being the better of the two films.
Also, you are assuming Dark Knight didn't originally intend to set up a 3rd film. With the demise of Heath Ledger, there is a good chance they made some last minute tweaks so they don't have to recast the Joker in the next movie.
Yes, I'll say it again and then duck: Dark Knight was the worse of the 2 new Batman films and one of the most overhyped-'Emperor Has No Clothes'-movies of all time.
In fact it pretty much blew. I would rather sit through Batman and Robin again than Dark Knight cos I was alternately bored then insulted the whole length of the film.
Mind you if you're going to rip into THOSE films, Batman Begins departed from the Batman mythology just enough to completely steal it's plot from Alec Baldwin's The Shadow (which I really would rather have seen a sequel to.)
Edit: My standalone player is robust enough to handle packet bitstreams, but won't accept mp4modifier's AR patch. Also, I don't know what I have set different from everyone else, but MY MPC plays back at 1:1 AR (when set for default). WMP is the only player it worked on for me (though I didn't try Zoom...)
I'll just set MPC to 16x9 for playback, but I was hoping to watch it on my standalone... I won't be deterred.
