If you look at the trailer a man tells Bruce while he's in prison it means rise. To think that the people of Gotham would chant something in a foreign language seems pretty strange to me.

to be fair he did say he thought the chant was "This is Gotham, Gotham"
 
That dialogue is actually inaccurate. It's:

BANE: It would be extremely painful.
CIA GUY: You're a big guy!
BANE: -for you!

Yeah, I was paraphrasing, based on my memory of seeing it the one time at the iMAX. I've not rewatched any bootlegs since. :cwink:

Gotcha. I just wanted to correct it for the guy who couldn't hear, so he had a proper transcript of what was being said. :yay:
 
What's the actors name of the left for dead Bane man?

I can't get him out of my mind. :hrt::awesome:
 
Forgive my ignorance, but were some of the CIA's men part of Bane's group too?

I think the guy that was beating the guy in the bodybag's chest also stayed on board the plane.
 
I saw a bootleg and I only watched the montage. And even though I could only see the top half of the screen, what I saw was glorious. My jaw dropped.

And is it just me or that first shot of batman pulling out that thingy, his eye holes were bigger and you could see the black makeup more? Because it makes him look even more awesome.

I noticed that too. Plus his cowl was a lot shinier for some reason.
 
^ Yeah, I noticed it looks more polished. Maybe there are some slight changes/modifications to the suit, although maybe very subtle.
 
The mask certainly looks to be more defined this time.
 
The prologue made me squeal like a little girl
 
One little thing I forgot to comment on: I like how the motif of the obscured Bat insignia making the film's title is continued in The Dark Knight Rises. The first film, we saw it in a swarm of bats. The second film, in the blue flame. Here, we see glass cracking to form the shape of the bat insignia.

The CIA guys weren't helping and The third guy gets off the plane with The two guys who brought the body on board.
 
Ice cracking forming batman logo..... Nolan's homage to Schumacher :woot:
 
When I woke up today, my back was hurting like mad - it still hurts now. Must be Bane. eh? :csad:
 
I prefer Nolan's action scenes to Bay's for one simple reason: I actually give a damn about the characters involved in them.

That's swell. Though I think I have to step in and start calling a little bs on this high and might approach to criticism on a few levels. I think it's a good measure to start from it's not the be all end all you people make it out to be. film is viseral and just like we can all be moved by a passionate dance number action can work on similar levels. For example. Everyone and their mother is shouting high praise about this new batman prologue; OH MY GOD IT'S THE MOST AMAZING ACTION SEQUENCE I'VE EVER SEEN. And on Imax the technical aspect is so great. And on Imax it's so immersive. THIS PROLOGUE IS AN AMAZING SEQUENCE...in your face non bat fans. Everyone's talking about it blah blah blah...etc. Now ignoring the nolanite hyperbole(or course). I'm not about to deny people actually feel this way. I mean they wouldn't lie or overstate such a thing.:whatever:

But now tell me, who in that entire prologue sequence is this audience "caring about" exactly? Cause I'm at a loss. Surely not the good guys? I mean in order do warrant a positive response to action they're must be a character they "care" about no? My smug tone aside(I assure you it's only reactionary), one must look beyond popular conventions when truly measuring such things.

Bay's sequences are engaging and grabing, bold and even like Cameron said, they just unfold into bigger and bigger forms of themselves. Sometimes they work sometimes not so much. But I'll be damned if I've ever seen an audience(as a whole) react passively to them.

Hey I get what you're saying(I hear it often enough), and you're entitled to feel that way. Nolans films have some of the most tangible stakes out there.

But here's my thing, Bay's "action" has many fans and he supposedly doesn't it "Without characters." How's that for objective appreciation. Notice how no one champions the action in the Resident evil films?

I love Nolans work(post Begins). I think he's lays about very tangible stakes and blindsides us with premise. I do think he falls short on execution a little. I think as a straight director if he was giving the shooting script for the matrix it would have fallen short, and as pure directors if the Wbros were giving the shooting script for Inception things may have gotten a little more interesting. But that's my wild speculation nothing more.
 
dont know if this has been answered..ive been out of the loop. but is the prologue going to be playing before ghost protocol for a while or is it only this week? thanks.
 
i think an action sequence works when a) you care about the characters
( which cant be the case for the prologue, cause you basically dont know them)
or b) the sequence is layered in the plot and the actions that take place
do mean something or have consequences for the involving characters.

and the latter is certainly the case for the prologue.
there is a lot going on within this 6 minutes.

For a while I think.
