The only annoying things about MI4 so far are the hip-hop influence in the marketing and Simon Pegg; I hate both with a passion. Hip-hop music is terrible and Simon Pegg is super annoying.

I'm sure there are plenty who share the sentiment, just not the people who matter

have you even seen spaced?

 

[Van Petrol]

Lol, Simon Pegg is brilliant! Hot Fuzz is a testament to that.

If there's any comedian I can't stand, it's Will Ferrell. I can't stand him at any price.

He is in some very very funny comedies though.

Sooo are we supposed to get a list of theaters that will carry the prologue, or do we just have to call on our own? I counted only about 20 theaters in the US that carry full size 70mm IMAX film, I hope we get some kind of statement soon that states where it'll be shown.

My reaction to the previous thread:

 

[bunk]

Pegg is the only thing MI4 has going for it.

 

[Van Petrol]

He is, but overall, he's just too 'in your face' for me. I think the only time I really laughed at a scene he was in was 'Old School' where he shot himself with the dart. And even then it was the laughter was more orientated towards Sean William Scott's mullet character. Oh and his "MA! THE MEATLOF!!...F***!!" line from Wedding Crashers too. Other than that, he's done nothing for me thus far.

Anyways...

 

[Miranda Fox]

Absolutely true.

So besides all the bickering was anything interesting revealed?

 

[Spideyfan93]

How long before people who give a **** should stand clear of these boards?

Actually want a genuine experience with this prologue since I was too young to go do it in 2007. Because once info comes out, no way in hell will it stay confined via SPOILER TAGS.

I'll be outtie.

 

[Ramsay Snow]

So besides all the bickering was anything interesting revealed?

Yes.

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

So besides all the bickering was anything interesting revealed?

Do you know about the Prologue description and the extra info about the plane?

 

[Mako]

Do you know about the Prologue description and the extra info about the plane?

Saw the description but have not heard about the plane .

It's a spoiler forum...

If you don't, here's what we know. Last night, Rocketman's source sent him this info:

Spoiler

- We are getting the League of Shadows. (We knew this)

- We see a friendship between Little Boy Bane and Little Talia, and believe it or not, this is going to mirror Young Bruce and Rachel in the very first scene of Batman Begins when they’re children. We won’t see footage of this scene intercut into the prologue, but the word “mirror” is written a few times. There seems to be a huge deal of “reflection” happening in this movie. Things will mirror other things. I have no clue what that means, but it seems fascinating. Talia is to Bane what Rachel was to Bruce – not really a lover, not really a sister-figure, but rather a good friend who shared childhood memories together, some being traumatic.

- This “Unnamed Mad Scientist” that we’ve seen around the sets, played by Alon Aboutboul, is the guy who essentially “created” Bane, and he is a bastard. He performed horrific experiments on him and it will be in the prologue. This man has supposedly helped to create the “Doomsday” device that we’ve seen in the pictures, but I use the word “Doomsday” because I haven’t been told what it is.

- The result of Bane’s health condition comes from a fire (as we all probably could’ve guessed). Ra’s Al Ghul’s wife (Talia’s mother) is trapped in this fire with Bane, along with Talia. Ra’s has only time to save Talia and Bane, but Bane is the last to escape and is severely injured / scarred. This is “tough to watch”, and mirrors Harvey Dent barely making it out of the warehouse. Ra's' wife is viewed as a "witch"/"gypsy" in their village, and Ra's is a "wizard". They're essentially "burning the witch at the stake", and Bane is an unfortunate casualty. (Again, a mirror to his supernatural side) - Villagers arrive with torches like it's the townspeople arriving to kill Frankenstein's monster - in this case, the monster isn't Bane - it's Ra's' wife.

- The brief snippet of Bane crawling up the well in the teaser will be in the prologue. This is part of Bane’s training, administered by Ra’s. Again, this will “mirror” the very first scene of Batman Begins, when Young Bruce falls down the well. It’s essentially the same exact shot. Young Bane RISES UP, Young Bruce FALLS DOWN.

- Among the Batman Begins shots inserted into TDKR: Bruce with longer hair and beard walking through the Chinese prison, Bruce inhaling from the bowl of the hallucinogen, Bane being one of the masked LOS members who was standing in the anonymous pack while Ra’s sicked bats on Bruce from the chest. We see Liam Neeson, but not in terms of new footage here.

- The only new footage we see of Liam Neeson is right when Bane emerges from the top of the well and, Ra’s is standing there waiting for him, impressed. Ra’s training Bane throughout his life mirrors the montage of Batman Begins (“My anger outweighs my guilt&#8221, only this time, through clever editing in montage, we see Josh Pence age quickly into Liam/Ra’s Al Ghul through quick cuts, each cut making Bane a little taller. The ice set is there, though we can't know visually if it's the exact same location (since it's on paper)

Then Rocketman said this about the plane:

Spoiler

Not everything described above is in the prologue. Some of it is spread across the movie. The prologue actually consists of a scene where Bane hijacks a plane with a Saddam Hussein-like dictator on it. We saw footage of this scene being shot in the summer. Remember those pics outside the hangar?

Thanks Goku

Pretty much a logical step up from a bank heist. What can we do with our new villain in the prologue? oh I know he can hijack a plane! That being said i'm very interested on how he does that, considering it's a dictator so it's probably a private plane or something along those lines (unless someone could remember what kind of plane was in those set pics) is he in the plane the whole time masquerading as a guard (let down, likely) or does he break into the plane in midair (hellyeah!, unlikely).

Actually im kinda hitting myself for not figuring out the plane scene was the prologue. Ever since we heard about the supposed plane landing on the iverness motorway stunt. I'm sure we all screamed "prologue"!

[Blue Sugar]

I have guessed from the beginning that the plane sequence would be the prologue. Should be awesome!

 

[Nevincer]

The full description Rocketman gave to me involved the Prologue starting with the buildings that we saw in the teaser crumbling to form the batlogo, and the camera rising into the white light. Then it starts with Bane climbing the well, intercutting with his mission to hijack the plane. If I had to guess, it's sort of a flashback within a flashback, with Bane thinking back to being trained/briefed by Ra's about the mission to take down the Saddam Hussein-esque dictator whilst actually perfoming it.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

I still HATE the idea of Bane [blackout]being a fellow LoS member during Bruce's tenure at Ra's fortress[/blackout] and Ra's wife meeting her demise [blackout]in a fire caused by villagers because of witchcraft suspicions.[/blackout]

It doesn't make any f**king sense.

 

[Boom]

Can someone confirm with 100% certainty that the prologue will be released with Ghost Protocol on the 16th?

Both Empire Magazine and Paul Franklin said it will be released the 21st.

 

[Nevincer]

^ You and me both, Doomsday. As cool as the idea of the prologue is, I'd hope it's fake simply so that crap ain't real.
