I guess I'll just wait for them to release a list of theaters that will play the prologue and keep my fingers crossed.

That's all I can do at this point.

I wouldn't go to those two if you paid me. I value my life far too much.

No, I spend most of my time 'twixt the two, so I am about an hour from either.

I doubt that I will bother, though. I have absolutely no interest in the latest Tom Cruise vehicle, and I am nowhere near as excited about TDKR as I was about either of its predecessors.

I heard there was a serial crumpet thief in those parts.

But...why not?

Maybe when we start getting official material that will change.

If that ever happens.

I bet you could imagine my face when I saw the last scene with Batman and an upside down Joker and the filter still being there.

Nolan is not one to alter his films after the fact, to do director's cuts and whatnot. His theatrical cuts are the definitive versions of the films for him, and though he does make the occasional artistic choice that I don't agree with, I have to have some admiration for that.

No changes as far as I can tell

Boom · 10-25-2011, 09:12 PM

Sam exact suit. Though Bale seems to be filling it out better this time around.

camp Blood · 10-25-2011, 09:16 PM

i wish they high lighted the bat more

maybe like this

CJ · 10-25-2011, 10:33 PM

I just had a thought the other day of something I think would be really cool for the last Bane fight in the movie.

What if Bane grabs Bats by the head and tries to crush it. He comes close to doing so. Batman's mask begins to crack. Another character manages to distract Bane. (Probably Catwoman using one of her whips or something) Bats gets back on his feet, the masks crumbles apart. Batman now fights Bane without his mask on.

Seems like you need to make the trek over to Pittsburgh and join the dark side.

That would make Alfred cracking the cowl in Begins seem like huge foreshadowing

Alfred, next to Lucius in the sidelines: "I told him there was a problem with the graphite."

Things as superficial as costumes create a subconscious feeling, and I find the Bane, Catwoman and the same old Batman designs to be quite weak. There is also the fact that we have already had two Batfilms from Nolan, so there is less of a sense of feverish expectation.

I am sure I will be as excited as the rest of you a month away from opening.

bollocks

The one in Birmingham wasn't shut down, it was just changing. It's now an actual independent IMAX cinema, maybe MI4 will be shown.

Yeah I think its called Giant Screen Cinema now. Whether that is IMAX in all but name I'm not too sure though I imagine since its departed from the IMAX contract it won't be showing IMAX films anymore. I'll pop my head round later to the date just to make sure.

Will the prologue be in all countries? I don't want to pay money to see this movie only to find out the prolouge wasn't there.

You know that day when I said everyone would be happy and excited over TDKR?

It's coming...

Dude, I'm already there. I had this same good feeling for TDK way before we ever got the December trailer and prologue. Nolan won't disappoint. It may not end up being quite as good as TDK, but it will still be a great end to the trilogy...and far better than most 'comic book' films made.

Mark my words. It will make TDK look like Iron Man

I don't even know what that's supposed to infer.

I really enjoyed Iron Man 1.

2 not so much.

But the first one was up there in the top tier of comic book movies for me.

My top tier list is

V for Vendetta
Batman Begins
TDK
Iron Man
Defendor (not really a comic book movie but it is in the genre and this film had a lot of heart)

Spiderman 1

Oh How did I know that when I put that down and went to get a bagel I'd return to something like this...

In my opinion Iron Man < TDK

Iron Man = An averagely good film

The Dark Knight = An above average epic film.

So in turn, The Dark Knight Rises' amazingly epic storytelling, visuals and scenarios will make the above average epic The Dark Knight, look like the averagely good Iron Man, in comparison.
