So this is apparently being filmed behind my flat. Pittsburgh is the new gotham. Look out for a hippy in his underpants in the tracking shots.

Don't remind me, my enjoyment of this film will already be reduced by approximately 3% since I will no longer be able to watch for familiar Chicago locations. Traitors.

I'm being silly, but they really established a lot of serious shots of Gotham's skyline with very notable Chicago buildings so I'm wondering how they'll reconcile that in the new one. Lots of CGI?
― jon /via/ chi 2.0, Friday, 29 July 2011 14:15 (thirteen years ago) link
Obviously the action will take place in the other part of Gotham they didn't show, or they'll rely on the audience not knowing architecture worth a shit.

Good points, both. I was just impressed with they way they wove the character of Chicago into the last movie.

Have you seen Source Code, jon? It's obviously less woven and not really fictionalized, but gave me more of a shock due to lack of recontextualizing.
― mh, Friday, 29 July 2011 14:39 (thirteen years ago) link
Not yet, I do want to see that though. I've worked on a couple projects down at IIT that were shown in the trailer, so I'm imagining there are some shots of the city.

The entire plot is the main character repeatedly having to relive eight minutes of time on one of the north Metra lines, although they obviously futz with the geography since things not up there are included. He gets off at a station multiple times, the Glenview one I think.

Gotham looked like a totally different city in Batman Begins, so i don't really see how it matters. It's just like different comics interpretations of the same place

Clearly they could not use Chicago again because Michael Bay destroyed the city with giant robots and ruined it for everyone.

you wonder whether if there had been an amply lit shot of batman at some point before now the whole thing would seem/look ridiculous

The way they've done the Bane mask, maybe just the colors of it, reminds me weirdly of the Mutant gang from Dark Knight Returns - wonder if that's what they're going for.

Maybe they just mean she looks French?
I always figured that if I were a bad guy in Gotham, I would commit most of my crimes during the day, when Batman is sleeping or out and about as Bruce Wayne.

Sombrero, lederhosen, and a kimono - that's my best guess.

Lipstick is too colorful, should also be gray.

No way, I like that lipstick on her. Also note the title of the picture is Selina Kyle, not Catwoman.

seen the trailer a bunch of times and I still haven't totally parsed what's being whispered. Something about Batman being a really big deal.
