[timothy007elena]

still can't find it :-(

[Kane52630]

There isn't much on that docu, it's pretty much old extras footage from the previous movies cut with the behind the scenes footage for TDKR which you can find on youtube.

Here's something new.....
http://www.bluray-disc.de/blu-ray-fi...n-blu-ray-disc

Translated:

Theatrical Cut (German & U.S. version identical), Uncut, 5 discs, BD (5x), bonus disc, PiP, extras includes in HD (part), special packaging, image formats from The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises alternates between 2.40: 1 and 1.78:1

It looks like the BD features for all 3 films remains the same. And it also posted a release date of September.

[Anno_Domini]

Uncut!!!?????

Extended versions of all three films or just TDKR?

[JaD]

Yeah, I was wondering what they mean by "Uncut" there...

[craigdbfan]

Could be a translation hiccup.

[Asteroid-Man]

God I hope this is true...

Don't get your hopes up.

[JackWhite]

lol, I just saw that on Nolanfans. It's BS I bet. Call me a pessimist, but I just can't believe Nolan would do a directors cut.

[Excelsior.]

Just this once I wouldn't mind Nolan eschewing his philosophy.

Oh, same here man. I've never been big on directors cuts in general, but TDKR could definitely benefit from it.

Thing is, I really don't see him doing it. I was reading some more of TDK Trilogy book the other day, and I think it was Lee Smith who mentioned Nolan not wanting the film to be significantly longer than the previous two films.

But yeah, keep the hope alive I guess.

[kvz5]

Unfortunately, I doubt that's true.

[Mr. Wooden Alligator]

Aside from Bane's training, what proof do we have of more stuff being filmed and cut?
Sorry for being that guy.

[BatLobsterRises]

Yeah, I think an extended cut would basically just be little moments here and there all the way through.

There's definitely some footage of The Bat that didn't make the final cut though. Both from the final chase (as seen in the Blu-ray ads), and that other part where it's flying through the tunnel. Probably some of the second Batman/Bane fight was cut down too. Foley's full death scene. Etc.

Just the way it is with these movies, sometimes some awesome stuff gets cut. We'll probably never even know the half of it. Remember that AMAZEballs wideshot of Joker and the Chechen in front of the burning cash, from the Dominos trailer? "This town...is MIIIIIINE now." *Chills*

There's definitely a lot of stuff that was left in the editing room. Lee Smith says that they had a lot more footage for Rises than normal.But i dont think that was anything major . Just longer scenes , lots of different setups , probably a lot of action footage . As he said , Nolan didn't want a movie much bigger than the other two. So they probably trimmed the fat of some scenes.

[Anno_Domini]

I agree with BatLobster on this one...besides just extended moments here and there, or a few additional things, I don't think we'd see a whole lot more stuff. If there was a 400-page draft, that's all it was, a draft. Half of that stuff is wiped off in further drafts and they might just be only a few more additional stuff that was meant to be filmed but taken out for the theatrical cut.

And even look at Bane's training...it was only meant to be extended into Talia's speech, so, yah...just extensions and a few additional things I'd say that would ever pop up in an extended cut.

[Team Andino]

While it would be neat to get some of those minor filler scenes as at least deleted footage I'd rather have these "ultimate editions" have commentary by Nolan, his brother, and Goyer. That'll make it more than worthwhile to me to re-buy these for what'll be the 100th time.

[Anno_Domini]

Yah, I would be fine if we don't get some extended cut either unless we have something that focuses on Batman and the attention on his first return in the film, which is the only thing I feel is missing in TDKR anyways. If not, then I'm perfectly fine with the cut of TDKR I have.

[Deserana]

Even though it says uncut right at the bottom it says length 457 minutes and when you add up the IMDB length of the films it comes up to 457 minutes.

[fanboiii]

Yeah, I wouldn't bank on it.
