The Dark Knight Rises 6 Minutes of TDKR footage attached to Mission Impossible 4! - - Part 11

[Van Petrol]

Saw the Prologue in IMAX.

Hathaway looks great and intense.

Hardy looks like a beast with a brain, and looks to be a very worthy replacement to fill the Joker void.

The shot where Batman and Bane are about to collide is full of win. Bale looks super p***ed and intense there.

...things I realize from watching this constantly:

- when the CIA guy shots aside the suspects. first I was like "why he's shooting the gun and then keep them??", I realize he's messing with them since they can't see a thing, so they just hear the shoots and the screaming of this guy, so he can get some info.
- the tranfusion of blood. my question was "why they do it if they can't replace the whole flood?" you know, like they can "replace" pavel...the thing is, the tranfusion works since they'll have blood from the CIA and pavel, and also the "brother" who Bane says to stay, so the CIA will know pavel died, pavel and some terrorist.

man, I love this...

That was my first IMAX experience, I just remember that first opening shot giving me the sensation of floating almost, it was crazy! I was leaning forward in my seat subconsciously or something, but that was probably one of the greatest cinematic experiences of my life so far...

It was mine too, dude. I remember when I was a kid and I went into a film it seemed larger than life... but ever since that kind of feeling i've been desensitized to. When I went to see TDK in IMAX though, that feeling really returned... cinema was larger than life again, and I've never had as awesome an experience since. It really was something special. 70mm IMAX is just incredible if you have access to it.

Totally agree! Nolan is very right when he says the IMAX format is bringing this enormity and intensity back, one of the primary reasons to be blown away by this prologue is it's incredible presentation. Likewise with any film worthy of the format, as i've stated earlier in my praise of IMAX lol.

Why you little...!

Another Soon Blurple? I'm down.

Soon, the fire rises.

*thinks about Bane stating this* *gets chills*

 

[Anita18]

that's because he detonates them.

Right. He very obviously holds up a detonator and pushes the button, then the charges go off. Hard to see in the bootleg though.

 

[Nevincer]

- and than the same shot at the end of the teaser where the buildings are crumbling and the camera moves up towards the white outlined bat symbol

Why the heck would they show that again in the theatrical trailer? I call bollocks

 

[paladinryan]

The mayor dumping Gordon--that is from the comics.

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

I don't buy that description, but it would be cool. I'll wait for Film4Life's description!

 

[MultipleJesuses]

I didn't know you were going!

Yay!

It was beautiful

....

Wow.

Sorry, I know, but still hahahaha.

I should explain t:
Techically I was visiting my sister who lives in London whilst I'm in N. Ireland (about an hours flight) so I didnt go just for the prologue

Shirley, you can't be serious!

Spoiler

airplane

I am serious. And don't call me Shirley.

 

[venus_ice]

- shot of Joseph Gordon-Levitt quickly walking through a hallway through a door

Seen it.

Still waiting though.

 

[Nevincer]

Name-That-Movie is also planning on getting a description tonight, so if what he sees matches film4life's we can verify everything.

 

[Nevincer]

Ah, that makes sense dude. Lol.

 

[kvz5]

Hmmm... That is one detailed description. I don't know. I don't hate it but I don't love it.

-Selina in regular clothes walking inside the football stadium

I don't think Anne was present at the Heinz shoot. I think she was in LA (or NY) at that time promoting One Day so...

 

[venus_ice]

Name-That-Movie is also planning on getting a description tonight, so if what he sees matches film4life's we can verify everything.

SHH ninjas know how to get **** done. Awesome.

 

[Nevincer]

Why the heck would they show the same animation from the teaser? What a waste of time if it's true.

 

[kvz5]

Name-That-Movie is also planning on getting a description tonight, so if what he sees matches film4life's we can verify everything.

Tonight? I thought tomorrow?

 

[MultipleJesuses]

Ah, that makes sense dude. Lol.

I'm not that much of a crazed Batman fan ...t:............ right?
Is name-that-movie possibly getting a trailer description tonight?
I hope not cos I really need sleep

P.S. Please don't get banned again

 

[Nevincer]

Tonight? I thought tomorrow?

So did I. Don't ask me...

 

[Nevincer]

You know... if this really is what the theatrical trailer is, it would line up with the doubts that syncopy had about some of us liking it. For instance, it maintains the title cards from the teaser that many people complained about etc. etc. But if it is, it's a shame, because it could have been something better!

 

[paladinryan]

The title cards make sense in terms of how WB is selling the film. The prologue was for the diehards--this is for casual moviegoers.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Just back from seeing the prologue at the Glasgow iMAX. The thing has probably leaked online by now (I don't know how, though, if security is anything like it was in Glasgow - I've been through more lax checks in airports! I got the full metal detector/body search treatment from WB folk before heading in), but I'll still respect those not wanting spoiled by being a bit cryptic about what I saw.

The scene opens with a shot that isn't quite as "WOW!" as the zoom in from the Gotham skyline in TDK, but still looks pretty impressive. I got a little shock when a familiar face - someone who fans of quality TV will recognise, I'm sure - popped up in the prologue, someone I hadn't heard was even in the movie. From there, we segue into an action setpiece that's as ambitious and impressive as the biggest moments from The Dark Knight - and this is just the first 5 minutes!

Of course, the focus of all this is Bane. Physically, Tom Hardy owns the role. I doubt a single person in that cinema was thinking about his height while watching this. If there's a more pressing concern, it's the voice. As others have said, they really need to work on the audio mixing, as half his lines are utterly inaudible. One that I did hear, that was really cool:

CIA GUY: If I take the mask off, will it kill you?
BANE: No... but it will be very painful.
CIA GUY: You're a big boy, you can handle it.
BANE: Painful for you.

As for the voice itself, it was unusual, not what you'd expect Bane to sound like. That voice sample we heard from the stadium shoot is pretty much bang-on. It wasn't just Tom Hardy putting on a funny voice: that's how Bane sounds. It's very upper-crust English, with a hint of Eastern-European. To me, it sounded like Gary Oldman's George Smiley from Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy, wearing a Darth Vader mask.

After the prologue, we got quick glimpses of various moments from the rest of the film. We didn't see much, but from what we got, it definitely seems like this film is going to be - sorry, Travesty - EPIC!

And yes, Catwoman has a domino mask and cat ears.
