The Sycamore State Street Theatre, located at 420 W. State St., ran a midnight showing of “The Dark Knight” Thursday, complete with police vehicles from the film parked outside.

In spite of other theaters’ selling out tickets weeks in advance, Sycamore’s late show failed to fill the house. But those who did come out were enthusiastic about the film.

Dalton Thompson, 18, of Sycamore.

“‘Iron Man’ had a bit of everything, but for action, ‘Dark Knight’ beats it.”

“Maybe ‘Wall-E’ could compare.”

“It has a lot of hot actors: very good actors.”
