TDKR Teaser and Poster Coming! - Part 8

[Kynergy]

Glad to see some people like the chanting. When the teaser first leaked, the boards were full of people complaining about how that "annoying chant" was reused in the teaser.

It seemed out of place, like there was really no point to it. They just stuck it in there, and we still have no idea what it's suppose to be for or what is being said. It helps build up hype, but other than that, it's unnecessary, considering how it was used.

[stringsbatman88]

:funny: ... I can't top that one, unfortunately. I feel like I really wasn't that involed with the viral/marketing campaign, and I regret it. Kinda want to redeem myself with TDKR, but it looks like it won't happen, though...:csad:
hold hope lol. Though idk if they could top the joker virals if they wanted to.

[The Joker]

Gordon's line of "We were in this together and then you were gone", it sounds like he's referring to only him and Batman knowing the truth about the whole Two Face business.

[Shadowdance]

Well Rachel's dead. Alfred and Lucius make sense though.

Yeah, I just realized that, haha. I'm guessing Selina will probably end up knowing (or at least deducing) that ruce Wayneis Batman...again. Why even bother calling it a "secret identity"?

[Alexei Belyakov]

wow...just wow! Even with the cam quality I still got the chills. Love the music they used.

The bootleg quality actually makes it even more ominous. Same thing with the leaked redband trailer for Fincher's Girl with The Dragon Tattoo. The redband was just so much grimier and chilling than the official trailer.

[Liam_H]

I don't know if this has been discussed or not already....too many pages to go through... but isn't Gordon just saying "he must" two times in a row. Its just that second time he was laboring and out of breath.

[Ness]

So...I'm guessing that's Bane's deltoid and bicep we're seeing come into focus?

[Hide the Rum]

The depth of analysis on this shoddy bootleg teaser has been remarkable. I thought I was excited :funny:

I hope the HD version reveals one or two things we can't see with this one.

[Shadowdance]

hold hope lol. Though idk if they could top the joker virals if they wanted to.

True, true. The TDK viral campaign was a masterstroke!, a once in a lifetime thing that probably won't be duplicated ever again.

[Ness]

Gordon's line of "We were in this together and then you were gone", it sounds like he's referring to only him and Batman knowing the truth about the whole Two Face business.
Really? I think he meant protecting the city. Remember the "You're just one man" "Now we're two" business in Begins?

[Bats]

Gordon's line of "We were in this together and then you were gone", it sounds like he's referring to only him and Batman knowing the truth about the whole Two Face business.

Eh, I disagree. It's really about them cleaning up Gotham from the start in BB. Seems like Batman took a vacation where then the city starts going to hell. That leaving Gordon on his own and overwhelmed.

As for the voice, it's not Bruce's voice, nor is it Batman's "I'm not wearing hockey pads!" voice. It's a disguised voice that he uses like the scene in BB ("Now we're two").

[Shadowdance]

I don't know if this has been discussed or not already....too many pages to go through... but isn't Gordon just saying "he must" two times in a row. Its just that second time he was laboring and out of breath.

Yes. "He must....he must". Or "He will...he must", though it's definitely the former.

[Sharkboy]

Well until we get the Blu-Ray copy of The Dark Knight Rises with the subtitles, Its safe to say that they are saying "this is arkham"

1) that makes no sense what so ever, do you see arkham? when has there been a PEEP of arkham asylum anywhere in the production of this film, let alone the fact they wouldn't keep Bane in Arkham since he's not insane (but Im sure someone will correct me on that one)

2) by your logic, it's also safe to say that they are chanting "we are badgers" or "peas are smelly"

[jazzmatik]

I used to be quite a fan, have read just about all of the books.. after the third movie I became disinterested though.. just as it seemed to be hyping up more for everyone else.
Seeing some commentary on the HP premiere on tv the other day though, my interest has been reignited enough to want to stay and experience the final film - it seems fitting. Initially I wasn't sure if i'd just go to watch the teaser for TDKR and leave, or if i'd stay.
It should make for a good night.

Right on. I'm actually in the middle of the 4th book! I jumped on the HP wagon rather late. My sister and dad have always been insisting me on reading them, so I have been. I've seen the first 3 movies, since I read those, but I refuse to watch them without reading the books first. I'm much more into LOTR though and can't wait for The Hobbit to come out!

[Nevincer]

Gordon's line of "We were in this together and then you were gone", it sounds like he's referring to only him and Batman knowing the truth about the whole Two Face business.

Sounds more like a reference to their partnership that started in Begins to me. And if the speculation that it was Bruce jumping out of a window with a ski mask from that set shot is to be believed, it would be a direct parallel to that scene. Still cool though. I'm still eagerly waiting to see how elements from tdk impact on tdkr, I just don't think that is one of them.

[TheBatman072]

I still like the idea of Bane, Bane Matalo, Matalo. It even works on the second part Bane Matalo, Bane Matalo Bane Matalo, Matalo.

Bane, Bane Kill it Kill it! in spanish.

[Carnotaur3]

Eh, I disagree. It's really about them cleaning up Gotham from the start in BB. Seems like Batman took a vacation where then the city starts going to hell. That leaving Gordon on his own and overwhelmed.

It's Bruce's voice. He didn't disguise anything. I'm not talking Playboy Bruce, I'm talking personal Bruce.

[stringsbatman88]

True, true. The TDK viral campaign was a masterstroke!, a once in a lifetime thing that probably won't be duplicated ever again.
I can't even begin to fathom what a bane viral would look like. Well if it's going to happen it'll happen. It will be a really long year without virals though.

[B.A. Baracus]

Some of the descriptions say that its either Bruce or Batman Gordon is talking to, but theres clearly a hand on his bed of a man in his suit (so most likely Bruce)

Looks like gordon will find out Bruce is Batman.

I'm sure this has been mentioned though.

[Ness]

Question. If Bruce is supposedly retired like this trailer is making it seem...or rather he's "gone", then do you think the new Wayne Manor is going to have another fully functional Batcave? What would be the point if Bruce isn't donning the mask anymore? Or hasn't for quite some time?

I'm also wondering how long the events between this film and the The Dark Knight are going to be.

[Billy the Poet]

Although, just like many others here, I was quite disappointed after watching the leaked teaser for the first time, I am willingful to admit that it did grow on me after several more times of re-watching. HD is needed as hell, though.

It's a teaser as it is and it perfectly connects TDKR with BB and TDK by not only having brief monatges of scenes from the previous movies, but also conveying messages and hints in the scenes of a new film. Aside from Bane crawling out of the well (which also take splace in the backstory of the character, as I believe) opposed to young Wayne being rescued by his father from the cave, as well as some posters' notions that Bane, similar to Bruce, was Ras's desciple, I'd also add the dialogue exchanged between Gordon and Bruce. Gordon clearly starts it with "We were in together", which successfully addresses to Bruce's line in BB (the scene of Bruce in mask meeting Gordon for the first time after his return to Gotham) when he referred to them as a team, saying something along the lines "now it's both of us". Thus, the film will stress the further cooperation between Gordon and Bruce, as well as Gordon's faith in Batman and how Batman will live up to believers' expectations, or, better say, hopes, since, as someone else has already implied on the boards, the whole franchise does discuss some of the themes from the Bible.

I just wish we would have a little bit more footage in the teaser and less time waste on long title and black screen shots. Yet, I do take into account the fact that the shooting has started only a few months ago and a lot of stuff wasn't ready for the promotion's beginning.

The last final shot was the best and it did give the tone of the movie, as Bane now seems like an ultimate antagonist for Batman, both mentally and physically. If Ras's plan in BB was to gain power over the city and change its nature and Joker's primary purpose was continuous chaos (which, as he could predict from the whole beginning, Batman would prevent all the time till the last days) and eternal war with Batman, Bane's only goals are to actually kill Batman (thus, finishing his career and vanishing his significance to Gotham) and destroying the city completely.

Bruce will be wearing the black ski mask. There are pictures of a man wearing a mask coming out of a hospital window from when they were filming. Gordon will probably think that it is Batman, he wont know it's Bruce.

Its Bruce in a black mask, he may take it off infront of Gordon, but he definately has a mask.

Sorry. Sounds disguised to me.

Did you not see the Arkham picture in the set photos?
And no body said anything about Bane being in Arkham, however there are rumors of a mass breakout.

There is evidence to prove that the chant may be about arkham but its not confirmed, but it is however my opinion.

so why don't you get all the facts straight before going after me.

[KalMart]

Question. If Bruce is supposedly retired like this trailer is making it seem...or rather he's "gone", then do you think the new Wayne Manor is going to have another fully functional Batcave? What would be the point if Bruce isn't donning the mask anymore? Or hasn't for quite some time?

I'm also wondering how long the events between this film and the The Dark Knight are going to be.

As far as I could tell, the Batcave wasn't destroyed when the manor went down in flames in BB....so everything could still be functional, and it was just more convenient having an alternate headquarters near where he was living in TDK while the manor was being rebuilt.

I've always felt that it should be some time between TDK and TDKR, and that he should be in 'semi-retirement' at the beginning of the story....kinda' like the DKR comic, but not as long, obviously.

I forgot all about that, good call.

[Ness]

I wonder if the League of Shadows is going to come back and try to destroy Gotham again just like in the first film. I wonder how Catwoman plays into all of this.

Also, the final scene really reminded me of Bane in Knightfall when he enters the mansion and discovers Bruce Wayne. Bruce is tired and can barely stand and Bane proceeds to finish him.

[Doc Samson]

It seemed out of place, like there was really no point to it. They just stuck it in there, and we still have no idea what it's suppose to be for or what is being said. It helps build up hype, but other than that, it's unnecessary, considering how it was used.

I'm starting to think the chants, along with the end music playing over the title, are parts of Bane's theme.

[Hide the Rum]

I wonder do they feel a viral would give too much away? For example if Bane and his team (if he has one) are brought in by GPD, it might limit what they could do with a GPD viral.

Either way they're playing this one close to the chest.

[Kynergy]

My guess is 3 years.

I don't think it's that long, that's a pretty big jump. I'd say a few months, a year at the most. Maybe even weeks, but not 3 years.

Hopefully Bruce isn't like 45 or something. Gordon doesn't look that old so I'm guessing the passage of time is in real time.

[KalMart]

I was thinking 5 years or so.

[Kynergy]

I'm starting to think the chants, along with the end music playing over the title, are parts of Bane's theme.

The music playing over the title is actually from TDK. I thought it was new as well, but if you go to about 1:40 in this video, you can tell that it's the same theme. The chanting, I still have no idea what that's about.

Well apparently the Batman is something of the past for the people of Gotham now, which is why I'm estimating a longer interval than that of BB and TDK.

But a year would be enough though.

[CapedCrusader14]

The saddest thing about the trailer is that you really get the feeling this is all coming to an end :(

It was an interesting trailer. Oldman's delivery of that 'evil rises' line was better than it read on paper.

My hype meter has been boosted :)

Since it's confirmed that Bane is breaking out of prison, it's probably Bane's prison inmates cheering him on in a fight to the death.

[Doc Samson]

Hopefully Bruce isn't like 45 or something. Gordon doesn't look that old so I'm guessing the passage of time is in real time.

Speaking of which, I would love to see some of that silver start to infiltrate Gordon's hair as he becomes the commish we all know and love

[dark_b]

where is this image of batman with a ski mask? because to me it looks like next to gordon i see a hand in a normal suit.

Wow! That's a lot.

But the teaser is epic. I loved it.

[JackWhite]

For the hospital scene Bale has to remove the ski mask at some point. I really want to see his facial expressions when Gordon says "The Batman must come back, he must, he must...". I can picture Bruce looking away with that grimace like he did looking out of the plane window during his scene about corruption with Alfred in BB.

[B.A. Baracus]

What about the pictures of Bruce with gray hair in the pictures thread

[terry78]

Paving the way for Batman Inc. :awesome:

:oldrazz:

[TheBatman072]

His hand wouldn't also have a ski mask.

[Ness]

Is anyone of the opinion that Gordon is simply sick and didn't get hurt and he's just watching the chaos unfold in Gotham? He could be old or whatever but like I said earlier due to other characters like Lucius and Alfred being in the film, I doubt this is the case.

Also, I'd be surprised if Bruce just stood by while Gordon and others got hurt. So I'm guessing that Bane and company are going to be really subtle about their intentions and Bruce doesn't find out until later. Perhaps Bruce isn't even in Gotham. Maybe he's traveling the world.

[The Joker]

Really? I think he meant protecting the city. Remember the "You're just one man" "Now we're two" business in Begins?

Yeah really, because when he says it in the trailer it cuts to the scene from TDK where Gordon smashes the batsignal.

[Doc Samson]

The music playing over the title is actually from TDK. I thought it was new as well, but if you go to about 1:40 in this video, you can tell that it's the same theme. The chanting, I still have no idea what that's about.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFZZmjJnNoQ

Well I'll be damned, wonder why they never fully utilized that part before. It definitely has an ominous feel to it

Since Batman ended TDK as a wanted man, in the teaser we saw them smash the Batsignal, surely that would be immediately after, idk though :awesome:

[B.A. Baracus]

I've never really been as much into LOTR but do appreciate the story and the films, i'm sure The Hobbit will be great.

[Alexei Belyakov]

Whaaaaaat???????

I guess the jump is going to be long.

[Kynergy]

Since it's confirmed that Bane is breaking out of prison, it's probably Bane's prison inmates cheering him on in a fight to the death.

Has that been confirmed yet? The prison break out report from the other day could be unrelated. Not trying to be a d**k, but has it really been confirmed? But if it has, then ya, that's a good possibility.

[Sharkboy]

Thing is about the chanting, let's assume for a second that it's Bane's theme. Compare itto the simmering , jarring, moody "nails on a chalkboard" guitar heavy Joker theme. It fit perfectly with the joker, his dog like mannerisms, his more subtle and underlying approaches, his disturbing chaotic nature, in turn you could tell more about the film in how the joker's character was. He was all about warfare on an emotional and mental level, the film's subtext included the lives and reactions of gotham inhabitants, a heavy social theme if you will.

Bane on the other hand, loud brash operatic, chanting, he's big, physically superior, he won't devise a plan to prove a point, or cause mass panic and chaos. He's all about breaking the body and soul through sheer superiority and willpower, maybe this film will have less of the social aspect, and be a more personal, emotional film for bruce. Less about gotham, more about bruce...I hope so.

[Boom]

Dark_b,

It's not Batman wearing a ski mask. It's Bruce, in a suit, wearing a ski mask. Look through the Photos Thread.

[craigdbfan]

Since it's confirmed that Bane is breaking out of prison, it's probably Bane's prison inmates cheering him on in a fight to the death.

I even believe its "Bane, Bane, Matalo, Matalo" even more now. :)

Everything is pointing that the chant is in fact that phrase.

That's what I was saying....I'm thinking something like 5-7 years, with the emotional trauma of TDK taking its toll on Wayne.

LOL Batman looks like he's about to get his ass kicked.

Anyways, is the venom aspect of Bane going to be played up in this movie? Not sure if they're going to take a realistic stab at the logical of a serum actually making Bane huge and musclebound.

The pictures of Bale with gray tints are somewhere on the hype, i'm just have trouble finding them again.

[fixxxer1022]

[Doc Samson]

Man, you guys are making it really hard for me to wait until it's officially available online. :D I really don't want to see a lousy bootlegged version....but it's so tempting....!

Wait, trust me. Especially if you've waited this long already, much of it is barely visible we're just taking stabs at it.

The best thing I've ever done in my movie going life was get off of here 3 months before TDK opened. Much of what leaked was a surprise for me in the theater, and it was the first time I had that experience in awhile. Nothing beats it.

[RedSkull]

I like the idea of a withered and aged Batman. Besides I always thought Bale looked a bit young as wayne when he started out but it all works now

[Sharkboy]

There is evidence to prove that the chant may be about arkham but its not confirmed, but it is however my opinion.

so why don't you get all the facts straight before going after me.

Ok listen, im not going after you :doh: I'm just trying to inform you and hopefully get a bit of information if I myself am mis-informed.

I saw that "set-pic" of Arkham, and it's to my knowledge that was debunked as being part of BB, not TDKR, that's not to say Arkham won't be in the film, but it's pretty inconclusive.

Prison breakout? sure. Arkham breakout? I doubt it, that was done in BB.

I haven't seen any evidence that the chant is Arkham, doesn't even sound like it to my ears. Wouldn't you think it being a song in a trailer, Arkham would be featured just a little bit in the trailers.

I get that you want it to be Arkham? but don't confuse what you want with something that is proven with facts and evidence, actually come to terms with the idea that it's a strong possibility that it's not what you want.

[Shadowdance]

My thing is why in the heck is he in a business suit while wearing a ski mask? Not exactly subtle...and it just doens't make much sense (the attire, I mean).

Bale, Gray hair
Well they are really pushing the notion that this is the "conclusion". Personally I don't like Batman as an old guy. I can already see the Viagra jokes with Catwoman in the fray too.

[Pagan]

Since it's confirmed that Bane is breaking out of prison, it's probably Bane's prison inmates cheering him on in a fight to the death.

all we got on that was that there was a prison break to be filmed in Pittsburgh. no mention of it being Bane breaking out of prison. For all we know he breaks in and releases all the inmates like in Knightfall. Or maybe Bruce is locked up and he breaks out? nothing confirmed on Bane escaping prison that I remember.

[TheBatman072]

We will see......:oldrazz:

I guess you haven't seen Batman Begins or The Dark Knight?

[redfirebird2008]

That's sound advice. :up:


I definitely think you should wait too if you've lasted this long. The final shot of the trailer is promising, but none of us have seen a good quality version of it. It's barely visible in the bootleg because it's a night time shot.

[KalMart]

Wait, you haven't watched it? After talking about it as much as you have, I figured you had seen it.

Nah...I really don't want a crappy-looking versions to be my first look. I'm just feeding off of all the speculation for discussion's sake. :O I kind of skim past the specific descriptions by those who have.

Also, the sound on the bootleg must be pretty crappy too, no?

[QueenChaos]

When we get the HD version, I demand that someone make a GIF of the last shot.

And maybe, just maybe, we could throw a "hello im ben" subtitle in there :awesome:.

Yes please.

I third this suggestion :awesome:

Theres confirmation that they are filming a prison outbreak, so its asumed it'll be for Bane.

Unless Bruce is stealing his own stuff again.

[Master Prophet]

I don't think Bale has grey hair there. More or less, it's just the lighting in that picture.

[RedSkull]

I think Bale looks like he's aging cause of all the weight he loses and then puts on for movies like Machinist and The Fighter

[fixxxer1022]

im not much into the batman mythos so please excuse me... a buddy of mine at work says he thinks at the end of this flick bane will break batman's back and put him out of commission. he thinks since this is the last nolan bats flick this could set up the next batman movie series with a replacement batman, did that happen in the comics and if so is that a possibility?

[Alonsovich]

I still like the idea of Bane, Bane Matalo, Matalo. It even works on the second part Bane Matalo, Bane Matalo Bane Matalo, Matalo.

Bane, Bane Kill it Kill it! in spanish.

Actually we use 'Mátalo' for 'Kill HIM' and not 'it'. And yes, that's what they're chanting and there's a point as to why they use it as background when Bane is closing on Batman. The chanting is not pointless at all, despite what some people are claiming.

[PrincessBoss]

Nah...I really don't want a crappy-looking versions to be my first look

Yeah I just looked up Matalo to make sure I spelled it right and I saw it.

But "him" makes much more sense!

[B.A. Baracus]

Yeah the audio aint great, i really wanna see the final clip in high def.

[KalMart]

Bale never had gray in the photo's of him arriving on set, so we could get some clips from the Future?

Ah.

Well, if it is grey for the movie, all the better...since I like the idea of a substantial passage of time.

[Doc Samson]

Well they are really pushing the notion that this is the "conclusion". Personally I don't like Batman as an old guy. I can already see the Viagra jokes with Catwoman in the fray too.

I wouldn't put it out of the realm of possibility. If I'm not mistaken, TDK is the only Nolan film to unfold in a somewhat linear fashion. He's always using some sort of flashback for something. Maybe this time he's going to flash forward?

[Armalarm]

Ok listen, im not going after you :doh: I'm just trying to inform you and hopefully get a bit of information if I myself am mis-informed.

I saw that "set-pic" of Arkham, and it's to my knowledge that was debunked as being part of BB, not TDKR, that's not to say Arkham won't be in the film, but it's pretty inconclusive.

Prison breakout? sure. Arkham breakout? I doubt it, that was done in BB.

I haven't seen any evidence that the chant is Arkham, doesn't even sound like it to my ears. Wouldn't you think it being a song in a trailer, Arkham would be featured just a little bit in the trailers.

I get that you want it to be Arkham? but don't confuse what you want with something that is proven with facts and evidence, actually come to terms with the idea that it's a strong possibility that it's not what you want.

I understand I'm not going to get what I want. I didn't know that Set photo was from BB. I don't spend my life on these boards.
A guy can imagine the outcome of this film, considering we no nothing.
So I'm just enjoying the hype we are getting.

Bane may break Batmans back in this movie, but the next Batman film after this will be a reboot and will have nothing to do with Nolans trilogy.

[B.A. Baracus]

Ah.

Well, if it is grey for the movie, all the better...since I like the idea of a substantial passage of time.

Yeah me too, The dark knight was 6 months after Begins, if Rises is 6 months after dark knight thats one heck of a busy first year for Batman.

And i'm sure, or i hope Nolan will have thought the same.

[KrakenAttack]

My thing is why in the heck is he in a business suit while wearing a ski mask? Not exactly subtle...and it just doens't make much sense (the attire, I mean).

Well I get that nurses would let him in being who he is and all. Who's going to question why the billionaire who's attended charity events with the Commissioner is there. But, all it would take is a nurse in the room to say: "Nice to see you Mr.Wayne, I'll excuse myself" or for a nurse to say "It was nice for Mr.Wayne to stop by and see how you were doing". And if it was so easy to get in the room with the Commissioner, why not just close the curtain and slip off the mask? Unless Bruce forgets to lock the door and a nurse walks in while he's still got the mask on.

True, that we don't know for sure yet, but all signs point to the infamous Knightfall-Batcave-beat-down.

It will be nice when Monday comes so we can make out all the details

[KalMart]

If he's not jumping over turtles and fighting dinosaurs i don't care.:dry::cwink:

One of them's in Africa. So booyah!

[Shadowdance]

Yo, are you serious??? That was clearly BANE!

[EliteF50]

The best part was he was still wearing the TDK suit :awesome:

:cwink:

He won't be after that scene. :awesome:

It'd be extremely uncomfortable wearing that suit in a wheelchair. :oldrazz:

[Diemtay]

Me too, how this got overlooked and the Matrix was such a huge success is beyond me
The Matrix was over-all a more appealing film to the general audience.

And I think the idea that this world is a virtual-dream is a little easier to swallow than the idea that this world is simply a small city on a spaceship floating in space being controlled by aliens with super powers... and its always night time.

[Doctor Who]

If the city itself is being destroyed, I hope it's more thought-out and extensive instead of pure chaos that Joker had in store in TDK.

Oh, not to worry!!! Bane and Joker are different in that retrospective; Bane would know what to do with a car if he caught it. :cwink:

[Alonsovich]

Do we even know if that's what's happening? You assume that. But the quick shot is so blurred and shaky for all we know he could be making a fight pose against Catwoman or something.

Yeah. Nolan reinvented Catwoman into a 7 foot tall Hispanic cousin of The Hulk.

[Nevincer]

I just realized... where is Ra's Al Joke now? It's not the same without him stirring controversy.

[Boom]

Actually, someone needs to make a GIF of the last shot with the phrase "DON'T COME AT ME BRO!" at the bottom.

When the trailer's officially released, that is.

[Kynergy]

Your preconceived notions doesn't constitute as fact. Your word isn't law, nor do I have any obligation to share your beliefs. I agree to disagree and that should be that.

Sure, but that was clearly Bane. There is no denying that. It. Was. Not. Ras. No matter how you look at it, that's Bane.

Ra's got out of the train and hit the gym then?

Tee hee.

:woot:

[Anno_Domini]

Ra's got out of the train and hit the gym then?

I thought we all knew that?

Ra's returns from the dead by his Lazarus Pit which was secretly placed right where the train crashed and put on the pounds to break the bat :woot:

[RedSkull]

I dont think Ras will be in the movie too much. The cast is so huge I hope it doesnt feel over crowded or unfocused

[Octoberist]

Haha right. You keep telling yourself that. I just watched it two more times and it doesn't seem Batman is cowering from anything. He's catching his footing, and he's got his fists up, but he's not cowering.

Sometimes I feel ashamed for being a geek.

Damn my preconceived notions! Spilling out all over the place!

[Nevincer]

:cwink:
That made me a sad batfan :csad: Sorry.

[Gotham Knight]

Teaser is out? WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME?!

[craigdbfan]

BBI is such a rebel.

[RedSkull]

it's against the law

[The Joker]

He won't be after that scene. :awesome:

It'd be extremely uncomfortable wearing that suit in a wheelchair. :oldrazz:

Read the script have you?

Nope, didn't think so :awesome: :cwink:

[Anno_Domini]

BBI is such a rebel.

Without a cause.

[Shadowdance]

So according to BBI, it's not Bane coming at Batman but pissed off and very much alive Ra's al Ghul (trained under Apollo Creed, apparently).

[Nevincer]

Oh the "silhouette" he's referring to is Bane towering over Batman? I thought he was talking about the thing in the background X.X How could you miss that that is Bane?

OR

ben: hello im ben.
bat man: ??? r u from south america or something?

:awesome:

[TheBatman072]

Hey, can you guys feel it?

Can you feel my preconceived notions?

They're all up in your FACE.

[Ness]

ra's got out of the train and hit the gym then?
lol.

[flickchick85]

I'm exaggerating for comedic effect, but yeah.

Lightish hair on Bale's temples means 6-7 year jump in the movie and Batman will retire or die.

[QueenChaos]

Since it seems likely we won't be getting the HD version online until Monday, perhaps I should take some notes in the theatre after I see it with HP if I can better identify and clarify what's going on at certain points..

[craigdbfan]

WB is being so stubborn by not releasing the HD trailer already.

They're headstrong in releasing it on their accord. I don't blame them as this is their movie but I have to say that any other studio by now would have probably released the HD trailer.

Oh well.

[TheBatman072]

http://oi52.tinypic.com/23u6e05.jpg


I know right?

[RedSkull]

the color change in bales hair means batman will die? READING INTO MUCH?

[The Joker]

That made me a sad batfan :csad: Sorry.

Don' be sorry. I'm not. I am delighted it's looking like the TDK suit will be sticking around for most of the movie.

[Armalarm]

I don't understand why people feel the need to want a new suit for every single movie.

Sure, they're are flaws with every suit, but what's the ****in point?
