Now that we all agree that the film was spectacular, let's delve deep into this thing.

Do you think Thomas Wayne was the Joker's dad? I think he was. I think Batman's dad was an asshole. Batman doesn't know this because he was a dumb 10 year old. We all loved our parents at that age. That man was a monster!

Also, do you believe the story that the Joker told? The man is fucked up! I think he was lying throughout the film and the film confirms it.

-Joker said the other guy gave him a gun. Joker's boss said he bought the gun from a friend.
-Joker said some kids beat him and stole the sign. His boss said he stole the sign.
-Joker said he told his social worker he wanted to be a comedian. His social worker said he never told her that.

There's TONS of examples throughout the film and it makes me want to watch it again to see what was real and what was in his head. Or what he just ignored (Like killing his mom because she lied and then seeing the picture that MAY have proved his mom really did have a relationship with him).

Amazing film. People just need to pay attention.

I'd kind of like to discuss this stuff, but I am wondering is it ok to do it in this thread?  This is the type of movie I'd really not want to spoil for anyone. 

I do agree though that I need to see it again.  When I got to the end of the film I found myself questioning what parts were real.  I definitely need at least one rewatch if not more.  I'll probably just buy the film when it gets a blu-ray release.  It does seem like the type of film to just own and rewatch.
