YOU DID NOT

Could live with Eckhart having some further involvement; don't get why TwoFace was meant to be any more dead than Batman was after they both fell off the same thing

whether you think it made sense or not, the movie was pretty unambiguous about Dent being dead at the end

I think they should kill off Batman and replace him with a robot Batman and an alien Batman and Batman Jr and the first black Batman.

What were the plot holes in The Prestige? I know both of the twists were kinda silly from a realistic point of view, but it's not a realistic movie, and its internal logic seemed to work fine.

Tuomas, Tuesday, 9 February 2010 19:06 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah i don't recall any huge plot holes, despite the ludicrous conceits.

by another name (amateurist), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 19:09 (fourteen years ago) link

some stuff was probably treated too elliptically.

by another name (amateurist), Tuesday, 9 February 2010 19:10 (fourteen years ago) link

I've been reading the wiki entries on some of these potential villains & the impression I'm left with is that they really, really need to up the level of security at Arkham Asylum.

one month passes...

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/herocomplex/2010/03/christopher-nolan-takes-flight-with-superman-we-have-a-fantastic-story-1.html

His villain choices to date have steered clear of strongly supernatural or super-science characters (no Man-Bat, Mr. Freeze or Poison Ivy, for instance) but he shook his head when asked if that was a trajectory he would continue. He did however concede one tidbit: “It won’t be," he said, "Mr. Freeze.”

Simon H., Wednesday, 10 March 2010 20:23 (fourteen years ago) link

He's writing and producing a new Superman movie too? Oh dear, I hope he isn't gonna do an "edgy" and "psychological" version of Supes too, that would be like the wrongest thing ever! I'd rather see something like an adaptation of All-Star Superman, but I can't see Nolan writing anything like that.

Tuomas, Wednesday, 10 March 2010 20:44 (fourteen years ago) link

I think the strength of Nolan's Batman franchise is that he's created a bigger Gotham, and one that exists in a larger world in that Bruce Wayne can travel and Batman can go to Hong Kong. It makes sense that you'd see more than one criminal, gang, or villain, although the plots so far have done pretty well with keeping things balanced. I think the weakness of the Batman franchise, especially the earlier film series, was that there had to be some drawn out "Villian A meets Villian B" scene in the film, or that they had to tie together or have the origin story every time.

Maybe that's the win: no (complex) villain origins.
