I feel like this one shouldv been the second one, and the one with the joker shouldv been the final one.

I was hoping Ras wouldv been resurrected by now, or I was hoping there would be a second villain of some sort, not just pop out Talia at the last 10 minutes.

I guess I was expecting so much because of the second one, I got let down,

Having Bane as the sole villain the whole movie didnt do it for me.

It was like a re-write of the first one,

get beat up, put in solitary, work out, get strong, come back, beat up bad guy.

Second had so much more.

And if Talia and Bane were just going to suicide with the bomb anyway, why the fuck wait 5 months?

and a 4 megaton bomb wouldnt create a shockwave or a tsunami at that distance?

it also felt like cat-woman was just filler in the movie, she felt completely out of place in the movie.

if they were going to pull a 180 and go back to the RAS story-line, they should have revived him.

how about avoiding saying whatever u want if ur not putting in spoilers...??

So anyone who couldn't make it out to a movie that has only been out 4 days and was pretty much sold out is an idiot? Really?

Maybe people want to read the thread to see how others rate the movie in order to determine if they want to watch it themselves?

For me I don't care that he posted without spoilers. Personally I know coming into this thread or anything Batman related anywhere on the web that I would probably see spoilers so I avoided it all together until I watched it. However, to call people an idiot for not seeing it already is dumb.

Nolan's "Goodbye Letter" to the Batman:


http://geektyrant.com/news/2012/7/24...to-batman.html
Quote:
The Dark Knight Rises director Christopher Nolan wrote a wonderful heartfelt and honest foreword for the book, The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy. The book was released in stores on July 20th, and it's basically a goodbye letter to the epic Batman franchise that he created.

I love these Batman films, I loved how Nolan ended it, and I'm excited to see what movies he makes next! Here's what Nolan had to say about his journey through the Batman franchise.

Alfred. Gordon. Lucius. Bruce . . . Wayne. Names that have come to mean so much to me. Today, I’m three weeks from saying a final good-bye to these characters and their world. It’s my son’s ninth birthday. He was born as the Tumbler was being glued together in my garage from random parts of model kits. Much time, many changes. A shift from sets where some gunplay or a helicopter were extraordinary events to working days where crowds of extras, building demolitions, or mayhem thousands of feet in the air have become familiar.

People ask if we’d always planned a trilogy. This is like being asked whether you had planned on growing up, getting married, having kids. The answer is complicated. When David and I first started cracking open Bruce’s story, we flirted with what might come after, then backed away, not wanting to look too deep into the future. I didn’t want to know everything that Bruce couldn’t; I wanted to live it with him. I told David and Jonah to put everything they knew into each film as we made it. The entire cast and crew put all they had into the first film. Nothing held back. Nothing saved for next time. They built an entire city. Then Christian and Michael and Gary and Morgan and Liam and Cillian started living in it. Christian bit off a big chunk of Bruce Wayne’s life and made it utterly compelling. He took us into a pop icon’s mind and never let us notice for an instant the fanciful nature of Bruce’s methods.

I never thought we’d do a second—how many good sequels are there? Why roll those dice? But once I knew where it would take Bruce, and when I started to see glimpses of the antagonist, it became essential. We re-assembled the team and went back to Gotham. It had changed in three years. Bigger. More real. More modern. And a new force of chaos was coming to the fore. The ultimate scary clown, as brought to terrifying life by Heath. We’d held nothing back, but there were things we hadn’t been able to do the first time out—a Batsuit with a flexible neck, shooting on Imax. And things we’d chickened out on—destroying the Batmobile, burning up the villain’s blood money to show a complete disregard for conventional motivation. We took the supposed security of a sequel as license to throw caution to the wind and headed for the darkest corners of Gotham.

I never thought we’d do a third—are there any great second sequels? But I kept wondering about the end of Bruce’s journey, and once David and I discovered it, I had to see it for myself. We had come back to what we had barely dared whisper about in those first days in my garage. We had been making a trilogy. I called everyone back together for another tour of Gotham. Four years later, it was still there. It even seemed a little cleaner, a little more polished. Wayne Manor had been rebuilt. Familiar faces were back—a little older, a little wiser . . . but not all was as it seemed.

Gotham was rotting away at its foundations. A new evil bubbling up from beneath. Bruce had thought Batman was not needed anymore, but Bruce was wrong, just as I had been wrong. The Batman had to come back. I suppose he always will.

Michael, Morgan, Gary, Cillian, Liam, Heath, Christian . . . Bale. Names that have come to mean so much to me. My time in Gotham, looking after one of the greatest and most enduring figures in pop culture, has been the most challenging and rewarding experience a filmmaker could hope for. I will miss the Batman. I like to think that he’ll miss me, but he’s never been particularly sentimental.

Spoiler what you wrote, you're looking like an asshole.
So u havent seen the movie yet, but u decided to enter the Dark Knight Rises thread for what reason? To see what others thought of the movie and would rate it? Dont we have a thread for that....... oh yes here it is http://www.revscene.net/forums/51388...-saw-rate.html

This thread is supposed to be a discussion about the movie. If i havent seen a movie, a UFC, a Canuck Game that i really wanted to watch, id be dam sure not enter a thread about it.

Exactly. There will be casual discussion. Spoilers are for crazy plot twists etc. I mean, it doesn't really make sense when someone would be upset if someone wrote

"Batman fights Bane", and it's like "OMG WTF BBQ SPOILERS". I stayed away from this thread (and pretty much the interwebs) this whole time.

That thread is generally just [Movie Name] - [Rating] with little or no explaination as to why they gave it. Whereas in this thread, people are actually discussing the way things were shot, actors performances, comparison to the two prior to this movie, etc. That's what I came for, I want to know how everyone performed, if the effects were good, and if it was well directed before seeing it.

I enjoyed the movie, 8.5/10.

Bane's voice was ok imo, but it was hard for some people to understand what he was saying.

Anne Hathaway.....damn

Like some people here have said, I would go with TDK, BB, DKR.

They set a huge par with TDK and Ledger did an awesome job with the Joker. I was hard for them to surpass that par that they set.

A true storyteller. Do everything by the rules, yet make it different enough that people are held captive by what is being told.

How about a separate spoilers/discussion thread?

I haven't watched it yet, just wondering if it's worth it to go watch IMAX?
