The Dark Knight Rises - By Christopher Nolan. ->Use spoiler tags<- - General

[QUOTE=shian;36720163]Argh, as much as I love Hans Zimmer, I hate how he recycles music. Most of the pieces were taken from Batman Begins and TDK[/QUOTE] I would have to agree with you, but something tells me the music on this album isn't even all the new material. The movie is over 2 hours long and the others both had soundtracks about as long.

Same design we saw before on their webgame, but now it's on a poster, which is nice. Again, note the bat logo his eye shadow forms.[/QUOTE] oh that's the free poster you get for going to the premiere. neat-o

[QUOTE=Mr._N;36718715]The part in Rise with the choir boy singing also appears in Batman Begins, during the scene where Bruce's parents die. [video=youtube;KLH0MywhPgM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLH0MywhPgM[/video][/QUOTE] Honestly I watch that clip and can't help but think this is the pinnacle of Batman movies. This trilogy will be hard to surpass. It'll be nice to deviate into the more comic-book feel, as I do feel the ulta-realism has prevented a few great characters turning up and getting justice. Something in the same tone as the Arkham games would work. That blends comic and realism nicely. Probably due to the fact it was mostly inspired by both the movies and the animated series. But really well done to Nolan for doing such justice to the Bat. He treated it like a work of art not a blockbuster. Which any other director would (And did).

The Dark Knight was way better than Begins though. Begins suffered from "awkward origin story." As in, shitty villain with a shitty plot. It just felt less well made then TDK. All the "realistic" parts of Begins were the best. When Wayne was in prison, was being trained by Liam Neeson, the part where the house burns down. Thats pretty much it. The rest was Scarecrow being a shitty villain.

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman turns me on.

[QUOTE=shian;36720163]Argh, as much as I love Hans Zimmer, I hate how he recycles music. Most of the pieces were taken from Batman Begins and TDK[/QUOTE] You probably haven't studied music before, so let me offer some insight into why he 'recycles': The 'recycling' is intentional, since over the course of the films, our brains have learned to associate certain actions with certain themes, so naturally, the movie is going to be far more effective if he uses those same themes again. They will not, however, be exactly the same, I'm sure he will develop them slightly differently, either in form or orchestration

[QUOTE=Color;36730470]Anne Hathaway as Catwoman turns me on.[/QUOTE] The idea of her as Catwoman is great, she has the allure but I really think they botched her costume and it just looks plain silly and dumb. Don't know why so many hate the idea of her as Catwoman, she's not a terrible actress by any means.

probably people who think she is a terrible one (me) [editline]13th July 2012[/editline] dont get me wrong, i think the movie will be fantastic despite her. but that doesn't change the fact she is not a good actress

I want to see her do spectacularly just so we can laugh at the people who thought she'd be terrible

There's a difference between Anne and Heath, people moaned and said he was gonna be bad but he was a good if not spectacular actor before TDK and well Anne she's not really got any good movies behind her.

Ehh as long as there is a lot of latex and no bad acting.

She's here [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=l5KRvAXYXWM#t=138s[/url]

All of the reviews claim she did really fucking good, with a performance that exceeded their expectations and Nolan later suggested to someone that she should even get her own Catwoman movie. I think you should stop being an irrational crybaby until you actually see her performance.

I feel bad for you guys that think Hatheway is worse than the Holocaust. If shes good, you'll either be too embarrassed to admit it, or be so deep into your opinion that you will not be able to like her anyway. And if she's bad, oh you get the satisfaction of telling everyone you were right, when really no one gives a shit.

I'll just be fapping throughout the entire movie. No Hathaway, no problem. It's a shame Nolan got rid of the armored nipples and asshots though.

But that doesn't change the fact that everything I've seen of hers in the past was terrible - what else am I supposed to judge her on?

I think he's always had it during those 8 years of absence.

agh snip

Regarding the sexy cane: Slipped on the soap in his shower and busted a muscle in his back. He managed to crawl his naked ass downstairs to ask Alfred for help but had no idea Alfred had thrown a surprise birthday party. They all laughed really fucking hard at Bruce for hours. The Avengers were invited too and they sat in the corner throwing money at him and Bruce writhed on the floor in pain shouting "I'LL GET YOU BACK, YOU FUCKS. YOU FUCKING WAIT. FUCK YOU". Trust me I've seen the film.
