The Dark Knight Rises OFFICIAL: Batman in the Burgh - Part 7

[Just_Human]

So who was the hostage?

Aboutboul? (i guess he invented that ball)

 

[darknight7]

I drove 5 hours from Canada to be part of the Heinz stadium scene, and it was 100% worth it.

I got the yellow under armour Rogues t-shirt and that made my day. Super interesting event.

It was also cool to shout out to Hardy and actually have him acknowledge and wave at me and my brother. When he was incognito at first, no one really knew he was there or who he was until I shouted his name lol. And even still, a few people around me were like "who is Tom Hardy?"

So I'm guessing a lot of people there were more Steeler's fans than they were Batman fans lol, because I also heard some guys talking about Bane as if they had no idea who he was and some girl asked if Christian Bale was the actor playing Batman lol

Also saw people throwing comics around which made me sad, because I would have loved to win some comic books and others were just taking it for granted

[Bats]

I'll trade you a comic that was passed to me for that shirt?

 

[jmc]

This is one of those 'duh' moments but I just realized the Rogues team colours are the same as the classic yellow Batman logo.

 

[Infinity9999x]

And these scans were taken form what magazine? I'm sure you can find them online by now?......

This is a very delayed quote, but I went to bed last night and didn't manage to get back to you. But yeah, they were scans of the entire article. Somebody has to have them. I tried to look back through the old Bane threads but I couldn't find which one they were in.

But if you read the entire Total Film article, it will be in there.

I think so anyway. Not confirmed yet.

Phhhhew, I'm not the only to think that

I feel the same way. There definitely were more steelers fans than anything. They were complaining about how hot it was and when it would be over. Someone next to me won a comic and didn't think anything of it. The True batman fans There sucked it up and would have done it over again in 100 degree heat. Heck it was an 8 hour ride for me the day before and saturday was my bday and getting a shirt made it even better

 

[Bats]

I'm thinking it was him more than anyone. When Bane said (to him) "Identify yourself!", I think he put the mic up to his mouth, but we didn't hear him say anything. Or at least I heard nothing.

 

[Carnotaur]

Ah, I had one of those shirts on saturday when they were tossing them around but some guy from the crown stole it from my hands. There were so many people crowded up I couldn't find whoever did it. Ah well, maybe they will sell them.

 

[Avengers-Report]

I'd love to have one of those shirts, but $500 on eBay is a little too step for me.

Ya, people were leaving. And didn't know who Nolan was and uh it was just disappointing for me. Hey I know not everyone is a fan, but I guess I was naive going there thinking it was 15,000 Batman fans :P hahaha

It was 90% Steelers fans and 10% Batman or maybe 85/15, either way you know how I felt and I'm sure others did too

I wish they sold merch, I would have bought a Gotham Rogues Jersey even if it cost me $150 lol

[Avengers-Report]

Anyone here have any shirts for sale? I'd actually pay a pretty penny for them!

 

[Yurka]

I wanted one of the shirts so bad

Isnt it a picture of the skyline with "Rogues" on it or something?

How pretty is your penny?

lol, that's not me selling it but the only one you can find on ebay is this and the black one and they are both way over priced :P

Got my first DKR prop today..side line pass from Sunday's shoot. Hoping to find a few more over the coming weeks.

 

[batbax]

Those jerseys are pretty sick though. I wouldn't mind having one.

You're telling me. My section virtually didn't exist when they were throwing them out. One section next to us got about 4 boxes of shirts tossed to them. The one on our other side had about the same. Us? 3 shirts. And they went to either the front row or past our last row. I even heard some people were leaving with 2-3 shirts. Argh!

It's a pic of the Rogues logo (cowboy).

Where were you sitting? Same exact thing happened to our section. I was on the 35/40 in the middle section, people were getting so angry around me for not getting shirts. I mean I wanted one, but these people were legitimately angry

Nice to hear you had a great time DK7! I would have killed to be in the stadium shoot, but it's my fault for not signing up quick enough. After it was apparent that we weren't going to get the call back for the shoot, we decided to drive into Pittsburgh anyway and catch part of the filming at CMU on Friday instead.

Drove in from Indiana Friday morning with my wife, cousin and his wife.

Missed the early stuff, including the Selina/bat-pod stunt.

Got to see some more shots for the riot at Gotham City Hall.

Got to see the bat-pod and Tumblers close up. Got really, REALLY close to the Tumblers as they put them away. Well worth the trip itself!!

We got some decent videos and pics, but it's not anything you guys haven't already seen so I'm not rushing to get it uploaded.

Met the professional paparazzi guys. Pretty nice. There were three of them there, competing with each other. They were only there to get a shot of Anne in costume, but WB beat them to it and they weren't that happy about it. LOL When Anne came strolling out in her white dress, they were fighting to get a shot of her. One of them jumped in the other's way and he yelled "You jumped in my f'n shot man. Next time get the eff out of the way." Hahaha... Pretty entertaining.

Met Subaru. (Subaru, I was the guy in the gold Paddy's Pub shirt) Very nice guy! Thanked him for providing the videos and pics for those who couldn't make it. Funny story... Subaru kind of got stuck talking to an older gentleman, who was asking him every-single-question-in-the-book. LOL. My wife laughed and we felt bad for him, but there wasn't much we could do to save him. t:

Missed meeting Batman11, if you're out there bro maybe some other time.

We went to Heinz to check out the scene. Wanted to catch a glimpse of the field, but to no avail.

Overall, great trip and I would do it again in a heartbeat.

I got a different type shirt. It has the under armour logo then a football outline then the rogues logo

That's great to hear. You totally share the enthusiasm and excitement. It's great to hear how much people enjoyed it because we can all relate on here. Such a life time experience for me (and I'm sure for many of you on the boards) and I'm glad it happened. It's been a dream of mine to be in a Batman movie ever since I was 2 years old lol. Now it has happened, and it's the conclusion to the greatest Batman trilogy! I love it

Our section was perpendicular to the end zone (the corner where the Tumblers exited off the field from). If I had to put a yard line to my seat it would've been within the first few yards from the end zone.

I was upset at how the sections all around us had boxes thrown at them with only a few shirts to us. It was like we smelled bad or something. t:

Oh! And another story from Friday I forgot to tell you guys that I'm sure you'll appreciate...

I met a group of three guys who were hanging out at the shoot. I asked them if they were from SHH. They said no and that they hadn't heard of it, but they were huge fans from Kansas City. The one guy had just gotten married and was supposed to be on his honeymoon, when he got the call to be in the Heinz field shoot on Saturday. His wife let him postpone their honeymoon until a later date so that he could fly in make the shoot. AWESOME!!

I don't know what's cooler. That he got to be in the shoot. Or that he's got the coolest wife in the world?
