The Dark Knight Rises
- Thread starter Incantation
- Start date
Going tomorrow. Big fan of the first two. Cant wait to see Nolan put a finish on it.
This movie has to much real death attached to it. First Ledger dies during dark knight filming and now the shooting. Pretty weird.

sad to say that this third installment of nolans batman was just... well..
drivel for the masses if you ask me.
i expect more from nolan, even if it is a comic book movie.
the fx and cool shit was cool the first and second time... was really hoping for some sort of harder hitting story line here... but nope, same old same old.

I had looked at the cast listing on IMDB before seeing the film, and it ruined some of it, but they have since changed it.
The main thing about these films that I don't like is the score that plays for the entire film. Especially when there is a guy with a mask over his mouth that speaks with a thick accent.
I liked how they never actually called her Catwoman, and she had a suit that wasn't actually a costume, but still looked like a Catwoman suit. The comic fans I know of don't like the ending, because it merges several points in the story and doesn't make sense chronologically (which happens in all these films), but I thought it was a great way to end it.

^ I agree... the score felt manipulative rather than complimentary.... kinda like Lost or walking dead. In those shows it feels like the score makes up for the lacking script and dialogue and fills most of the emotional blanks. Which is ok, but not to this extreme.
Joseph Gordon Levitt was the one redeeming thing in this film. I never thought I would think this, but he might actually make a really good Robin. Which is saying a lot considering how super lame Robin is.

Yes. Nolan said he would never have Robin's story in the films, and I think Christian Bale also refused to do it if Robin was in it. So immediately after he was identified as Robin, he got what he needed to become The Dark Knight. This guy does a good write up of it:

Heath Ledger as the Joker was the all time best fucking character in a movie EVER. Nothing can top that IMO, but this movie was good.. just not fucking awesome like The Dark Knight. I give it 8 out of 10.
