Seems crazy but that's like 10 minutes longer than The Dark Knight.

10 mins for extra brooding.

Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Sunday, 3 June 2012 14:37 (fourteen years ago)

god this thing better not have like 17 endings

Simon H., Sunday, 3 June 2012 14:49 (fourteen years ago)

The last hour is all the characters sailing off across the sea towards the grey havens, IIRC from the book.

They resolve it by explaining this whole series has all been taking place in Joseph Gordon-Levitt's dreamstate mind. It ends with 20 minutes of talking. Then a machine gun fight on skis.

Bale, Oldman and Gordon-Levitt were on the MTV Movie awards last night showing a little clip. JGL has the most bizarre, contrived-sounding speaking voice when he's 'himself' on TV and not in a movie role, noticed it when he hosted SNL too.

i chalk it up to him being a child actor.

phantompenguin, Monday, 4 June 2012 16:23 (fourteen years ago)

so glad they didn't go with Sweaty Bigface as the Riddler, *yikes*

Roger Barfing (Shakey Mo Collier), Monday, 4 June 2012 23:39 (fourteen years ago)

Advance tickets for sale now and this fucker is selling out like crazy, can't get anything I want on Fandango.

Ned Raggett, Monday, 11 June 2012 17:39 (fourteen years ago)

Looks like there's one more trailer...

starting to get really amped about this.

Bee OK, Thursday, 21 June 2012 03:07 (thirteen years ago)

i really dug the five minutes of footage before MI4 (note: was lifted), but i gotta be honest, the trailers for this have been pretty lame. ya ok, the football field collapses. and a couple bridges fall down. and a bunch of crowd scenes, which are always terrible.

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 05:13 (thirteen years ago)

yeah. i'll wait and see i guess

Black_vegeta (Hungry4Ass), Thursday, 21 June 2012 05:31 (thirteen years ago)

the daylight brawl footage could use some BOF!s and POW!s

this is kind of a silly criticism imo. it's a musical montage-driven trailer for a movie that they're trying to withhold plot details about, of course it's going to lean heavily on glimpses of big action setpieces and not give you much of an idea what actually watching the movie from scene to scene will be like.

here's my lumber, so jack me maybe (some dude), Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:12 (thirteen years ago)

i think s1oc was saying that the big spectacle stuff looks lame

Black_vegeta (Hungry4Ass), Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:17 (thirteen years ago)

I hear that Bane also wrecks Bruce Wayne financially, through the business dealings of his firm, Bane Capital.

mh, Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:18 (thirteen years ago)

It's mostly a legal drama about the case of Bane v Wayne.

ooooiiiioooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaoooooh un - bi - leevable! (LocalGarda), Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:19 (thirteen years ago)

The opening sequence looks (and by all accounts is) pretty cool

Number None, Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:23 (thirteen years ago)

Nolan does good set pieces! The one opening that last film could be a film in itself.

mh, Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:24 (thirteen years ago)

I hear Bill Clinton has a lot of respect for the good work Bane has done.

yeah but i dunno "crowd scenes suck!" is a weird thing to say imo. as if a) any movie like isn't going to be to some extent about a SUPER VILLAIN TERRORIZING THE CITY OF GOTHAM, CUE SCREAMING CROWD and b) c'mon that'll be what 4 minutes of screentime in this thing?

here's my lumber, so jack me maybe (some dude), Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:43 (thirteen years ago)

any movie like THIS, meant to say

here's my lumber, so jack me maybe (some dude), Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:43 (thirteen years ago)

"A sensitive, crafty Dark Knight faces a heartless goliath named BAIN" vs. "A resourceful millionaire defends the American way from an aggrieved lunatic obsessed with the redistribution of wealth"

da croupier, Thursday, 21 June 2012 14:44 (thirteen years ago)

scenes where groups of people run at each other yelling are so rarely good

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:00 (thirteen years ago)

anyway, that's just one thing, i'm just not feeling ~dun dun dun~ *BRIDGE EXPLODES*

but then again, the airplane scene was pretty awesome. so who knows

blazing saddles

goole, Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:35 (thirteen years ago)

Gangs of New York, ymmv

Julie Derpy (Phil D.), Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:44 (thirteen years ago)

the worst

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:44 (thirteen years ago)

barry lyndon
the red and the white

Ward Fowler, Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:50 (thirteen years ago)

<3 barry lyndon but I always feel like it's a comedy and giggle the whole time

mh, Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:51 (thirteen years ago)

nuts spats (Austerity Ponies), Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:54 (thirteen years ago)

the point is, that stuff doesn't really look exciting to me in the trailer, it just looks like a bunch of extras running and yelling

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 15:59 (thirteen years ago)

i don't disagree. just seems like an inevitable (and inevitably small, in this case) piece of any city-under-siege superhero movie.

here's my lumber, so jack me maybe (some dude), Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:06 (thirteen years ago)

actually from what i understand half the movie is people screaming in the streets in daylight and then bane kills batman and the second half is JGL crying

da croupier, Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:11 (thirteen years ago)

no spoilers

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:12 (thirteen years ago)

wooops

da croupier, Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:12 (thirteen years ago)

no no, s1ocki means he's crying because someone stole his car's spoilers

StanM, Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:15 (thirteen years ago)

right?

StanM, Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:16 (thirteen years ago)

first of all, i didnt admit that i was crying

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:16 (thirteen years ago)

i mean, i didnt SAY that i was crying

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:17 (thirteen years ago)

but you are crying, right

Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:22 (thirteen years ago)

I'm crying because I meant da croupier and not s1ocki ;_;

StanM, Thursday, 21 June 2012 16:24 (thirteen years ago)

s1ocki, if it makes you feel better, I'm not feeling the trailers, either

I don't have a theory tho

nuts spats (Austerity Ponies), Thursday, 21 June 2012 18:37 (thirteen years ago)

really can't tell much from trailers so wth

funny-skrillex-bee_132455836669.gif (s1ocki), Thursday, 21 June 2012 18:37 (thirteen years ago)

Braveheart. Worst movie ever.

old people are made of poop (Eric H.), Thursday, 21 June 2012 18:46 (thirteen years ago)

trailers don't have me ecstatic but it still looks better than Batman Forever

da croupier, Thursday, 21 June 2012 19:09 (thirteen years ago)

did not dig the trailer shown before prometheus at all. movie looks boring, bane looks/seems superboring
