they probably just saw the Nobody Cares Batman ( Christian Bale's stand in who literally wears jeans, a tee shirt, and a bat cape, not joking)
 
Just walked on the set it was cra) it was empty and firemen getting rerady
 
Today's shooting was awesome. I saw JGL and Gary Oldman in a scene on a pool under a bridge. JGL runs into the pool and Gordon slows in. It was incredibly tricky getting a shot but I got a distant shot of the entire area/crew.
 
To the right, under the bridge, was a large pool in which Gary Oldman and JGL go into. Nolan and crew are to the left of the pool, this was a handheld shot. One from outside the pool, the other the cameraman was in the pool following the actors.

Awesome as always Polaris23!

It looks like after this weekend, we won't know anymore where they're headed (until Sep 21st). I'm guessing they'll do start doing some studio shoots.
 
is there anyone that's going to the set that can take me along?

You're funny man! We're all strangers here until we meet up on set...

Ok this is getting weird. Mysterious cape dude on set:

You guys have to chill. This is just Batman's stand in. For some reason they always have him cloaked. Why? Cause he looks stupid if he wasn't cloaked: all he's wearing is a bad Batman mask, a cape and regular clothes (jeans, shirt) underneath. No big deal.

I don't understand what you mean by 'pool.' I can barely make out the shot.. What do you imagine this scene is? What are they doing?

I thought I read JGL falls through the ice in one part.. And we saw Oldman and crew stepping across what seemed like very thin ice.. Perhaps they both fall in, or Oldman to the rescue?

the pool is right under the bridge.. u can see it because the water reflects the light. He said JGL runs into the water and Gordon follows.. I can imagine they're trying to save or get somebody that is in there.

That scene was from yesterday at the ice platform they built. This is new, from today. It's hard to see, I know, but if you look closely at the guys on the top right of the photo, they're actually standing inside a pool. The water reaches up to their ankles, about. It's some sort of nasty sewer-like ''pool''. See that police car on the bottom right? The pool is directly in front of it.
 
They're filming under the 6th street bridge right now. After the entrance of the tunnel, before the ice stage. They've been shooting this scene where JGL sneaks up behind one of Bane's guards, chokes him out, drags him around a corner and then continues on but we can't see beyond that. They're using a steadicam for the shot.

hopefully he chokes him out with a rear naked choke rather than a million dollar dream :doh:

Can you get any photos?
 
Both Polaris and Jonathan are with each other taking pics right now?

Awesome. Ninja's do your work it's much appreciated. :up:
 
I'm not there anymore, I left a few hours ago once the crew broke for lunch. I posted my share of scoop + photos as soon as I got home. But while I was there I was observing + snapping photos and Jonathanb was there as well. We had a fantastic view before a PA moved us to a side of the bridge where we could only see silhouettes of the entire crew (because a giant light was behind them).

At one point I was directly above Nolan and wife Emma Thomas, clear as day. Crisp. But LA is tricky as hell.

Anyone know the shooting schedule for Saturday?
 
Just left. They're still filming. I would stay but we can't see anything and it's pretty late.
