The Dark Knight Rises 6 Minutes of TDKR footage attached to Mission Impossible 4! - - - Part 12

[Tacit Ronin]

Yes. It is not as enchantingly stand alone piece of mini-movie like the TDK prologue—which had it's own beginning, middle and end. That prologue's money shot, the demonic mug of the Joker himself, is just too hard to top.

This one does feel a bit empty; which I'm sure will be better when seen under the wider context of the rest of the film. Hence why it is not as gloriously stand alone as the TDK prologue.

Yay quote is back! t:

There's really no indicator of that and the dialogue from Bane suggest that the CIA agent wasn't bluffing.

Sure he was bluffing about killing them then but if he shot all three and neither of them talked it wouldn't have done him any good. Its more prudent to believe that once he got his info he would have killed them anyway.

Otherwise it makes Bane's statement and the merc's death totally pointless, and I don't see why anyone would write it so that that merc's death was avoidable.

It's just like Bane himself was doing - he wanted to get the information he wanted, and then the CIA dudes were gonna die. It's not that far-fetched to determine that the CIA guy was gonna keep those guys alive until he got what he wanted. And then throw everybody out of the plane.

I have a question about the prologue:

Why did Bane made that blood transfusion on the plane? Or what the hell was all that about? I did not get that?

 

[Silver Souper]

My two cents, all. I saw it on a 5-story (or so) imax screen at pacific science center in Seattle. Overall, I was underwhelmed. I don't want to take away for anyone thrilled by the prologue, I'm happy for you. Aside from some gorgeous scenery, I found it to be less of a spectacle than TDK's opening, more chaotic and just generally not that thrilling. Bane was fine, love the voice, but yes hard to understand and not terribly frightening (yet). He seemed too small in several shots, and I've never been one to complain about his size yet. It reminded me of Cliffhanger, Air Force One, and of course- the skyhook in TDK which I realize may be a plot point later. At the end, people barely clapped, it was hesitant and delayed like people were thinking "is that all?" And I have to say again, I struggle through the Nolan brother's on the nose, obvious, and two-dimentional dialogue. Our boy Carcetti from The Wire was miscast, IMO.

still looking forward to the trailer, and film of course, but for me I found Mission Impossible 4 actually made far more of an impression (especially that riveting sky scraper sequence).

Read my post 5 above yours and it explains it.

I have to say that there are a lot of plot holes in just the prologue though.
1. there's no way the CIA let's anyone on the plane without I.D.'ing them first and checking with command to tell them they are bringing more prisoners.

2. Just putting a little bit of Pavel's blood in the corpse will not confuse forensics. They will see that there are 2 different dna types there.

3. any investigation of the crash will show that the hull was cut and there are bullet holes in it. not to mention the bolts that were fired into it for

I guess we're not supposed to overthink it.

the cables. they would have to know that something fishy went on. which would make them really investigate the remains of the supposed Pavel corpse.


Dude, totally. It just didn't really work, as a scene.

Assuming the CIA is allowed to even investigate the crash site. If the plane went down in an unfriendly country they probably won't have time to do much more than grab the bodies and run, if that.

[Dark Donnie]

Just saw Mission Impossible and it only had the trailer.

 

[CelticPredator]

^ Digital IMAX then. How big is your screen?

 

[wikum]

hi guys, sorry if this has been answered already, but i was just wondering if someone could clear this up.

in the prologue, when bane breaks out of his handcuffs, what happens to the other two hostages? i think the masked green t shirt guy is the one that bane tells "they'll expect one of us in the wreckage brother"...correct? what happens to the other one? and if they both also escaped their handcuffs, how do they help bane during the whole scene? it all moves so fast i couldn't really tell.

 

[CelticPredator]

Probably the same thing that happend to the blood on the Bank Mananger, and the Green in the Joker's hair in TDK's Prolouge.

Magic.

 

[StarLord]

Let's not start the nit-picking.

Not a bad consolation, I suppose.

 

[CelticPredator]

Let's not start the nit-picking.

That's called continuty errors. And they're very in your face in TDK.

That was a pearler.

You could see what they were trying to do. If they showed green in his hair from the start it would have been obvious who The Joker was.

Insulting the audiences intelligence is always a reliable back-up.

 

[CelticPredator]

Haha.

They should've just had his hair brown, or had a few other people's hair green.

 

[Syncope]

Haha.

They should've just had his hair brown, or had a few other people's hair green.

Or maybe just had masks that covered their entire head.

 

[Lasirius]

The green on Joker's hair was done intentionally. It showed he was "turning" into the Joker as the scene progressed. I read this or heard it from Nolan, I think but I could be wrong.

If anyone's going to bend the laws of physics, Nolan will.

 

[CelticPredator]

Funny how that works. But if anyone else bends the rules...

This.
Though if we want, we can likely work out suitable enough explanations.

One was shot and thrown out of the plane. The other stayed behind to die in the crash since the CIA agent let Langley know that he had one prisioner. I guess Bane wan'st to keep them guessing about his resources and doesn't want to declare he's capable of highjacking a fully armed CIA plane mid flight.
