ThurmanMunster Posted July 28, 2012 Report Share Posted July 28, 2012 [quote name='Jason' timestamp='1343160191' post='1140478'] Honestly I wasn't thrilled. I liked the ending and to me the ending redeemed the movie. But [spoiler]there wasn't nearly enough batman in the movie.[/spoiler] [/quote] there wasnt supposed to be a lot of batman, that was a key part to the story. in the comics when bane breaks his back he is gone and has his own personal battle like Bruce did in this film. it held true to the comics.[quote name='Bengals1181' timestamp='1343160649' post='1140482'] [spoiler]as I mentioned above, IMO I think they flubbed part of the ending. You can't have Alfred give that speech at the grave that emotionally and then have him not even be surprised when he sees Bruce in Paris. IMO you either dial back the grave scene on Alfred so its possible he's faking it or you let him be dead (which I think would have been more fitting for how the movie went)[/spoiler] [/quote] wait for the directors cut. WB started editing shit to keep it under 3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was as good if not better than begins, but dark night was pretty hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passepartout Posted July 29, 2012 Report Share Posted July 29, 2012 My nephews, niece, sister saw the movie. They say it was good. As they have seen all two Batmans with Christian Bale and have both at home. Christopher Nolan is very creative. Bale is a great actor. Fans will be sad when both depart the roles of director and actor respectfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MichaelWeston Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Just got back, SPOILERS COMING Thought it was great. Really tied into the other movies and had me on the edge of my seat at times. I like movies that make me feel anxious and this one did. A few things happen too easily, like Oh I want this to happen....ok it worked out dont worry too much about the detes. I would love for them to make new movies and love the tie in at the end. They explain the Bain illness part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|Montana Bengal| Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 I like it as well, but I kept thinking "where is the Joker?" Obviously this is a tough dance with Ledger being gone, but it created a kind of disconnect for me with the second film. I really want to watch Begins again.

|Montana Bengal| Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Voice was interesting, but a little to clear compared to everything else. I think they probably had to adjust his voice so we could understand him. Edit "clear" probably isn't the right word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] They said from the get gothey weren't going to mention him out of respect. Besides it's eight years later. Any number of things could have happened to him in Arkham. In the book adaptation of the movie they hint hint at what has happened to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actium Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 I thoroughly enjoyed it. Bane is a well-rounded character. I like the fact that he is not only brutal but eloquent. Also got a kick out of the Scarecrow's role as absurd judge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.A.B. Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 The Dark Knight is overrated as fuck based purely off of Heath Ledger's performance. Overall writing and story wise, it was average. Especially compared to Batman Begins, which is easily the best of these movies. Batman Begins > The Dark Knight Rises > The Dark Knight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolan is probably my 2nd or 3rd favorite director out, and that is his only movie that I genuinely dislike. I'm happy that all of my friends that I know all hate that movie too. I understand why people would like it, but..I just absolutely can't stand it. To me, Nolan's movies go in order of: The Prestige > Batman Begins > everything else > Memento Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
