Think I saw him but I was pretty distracted counting the basketball passes.

Am I the only one who sees Batman looking at his crotch, waiting for his "Dark Knight" to rise?

Tuomas hopes batman is inside him.

I feel weird agreeing with Tuomas, but Batman is just a slight arm movement from this:

Serious Batman font sucks and is boring, otm

really if there's one thing that can make or break a movie for me, it's the font used on the poster

Forget the font -- what it's missing is a gallery of dastardly villains.

Oh no, someone used Photoshop to create a movie poster! What a disgrace for the artform!

Tuomas, Wednesday, 23 May 2012 07:57 (eleven years ago) link

pretty awesome that they were able to show how to recreate it in so few frames, though

mh, Wednesday, 23 May 2012 14:50 (eleven years ago) link

So like the last movie, there's a kiddie book tie-in. Spoilers of sorts:

StanM, Sunday, 3 June 2012 07:11 (eleven years ago) link

and that's just the trailer

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

circa1916, Sunday, 3 June 2012 08:48 (eleven years ago) link

10 mins for extra brooding.

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

god this thing better not have like 17 endings

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

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

StanM, Sunday, 3 June 2012 15:05 (eleven years ago) link

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.

Josh in Chicago, Sunday, 3 June 2012 18:27 (eleven years ago) link

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 (eleven years ago) link

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

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

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 (eleven years ago) link

Looks like there's one more trailer...

starting to get really amped about this.

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

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 (eleven years ago) link

yeah. i'll wait and see i guess

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

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.

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

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

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 (eleven years ago) link

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

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

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

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

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

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 (eleven years ago) link

any movie like THIS, meant to say
