I know real microwave emitters are not like that but at least it has a real world basis...just as the ballistics technique he used is based on something real world. I'm sure whatever this device is is based in something real world.[/QUOTE]

HAARP.....
 
Stadium security was tighter today.
Yesterday i was one of the 10,000+ unpaid extras. While we were told in an email that no cameras and that cellphones may be checked, security was lax. By midday, many were filming with their phones. I'm certain this was known by Nolan and Co. Heck, they had Heinz Ward leading the Tumbler parade! I was expecting everyone to be offered a ride.

Today is different. The number of extras is a fraction of yesterdays, however I was able to hear the same instructions being given over the PA system...how to react the explosions, etc.
And security is tighter. I wasn't even allowed to walk along one side of the stadium and the front gate was fenced off so that you couldn't get within 50 yards.

Nolans officially pissed.:woot:
 
Have we heard from Subaru today? He said he'd been offered a place as one of the 200 paid extras today so maybe he took it.

While it may not be asthma, Hardy definitely had some grunts and strange noises in between the lines for all the takes yesterday. His laugh was more of a "Ahh-ahhhh" than anything resembling a human laugh. I don't know if it was a case of him being exhausted or in pain or something else entirely, but some strange things came out of Hardy's mouth yesterday that wasn't his voice.

Thanks for that, I was thinking most of the impressions were just from the video/audio but this is more detailed. :up:

Either pissed, or he's very aware of what he wants seen or not seen. I imagine he's pretty knowledgeable of the capabilities of the local ninjas.
Who can remember the guy in the blue sweater from Chicago with one of the first Batman videos in 2004?
 
I know. I was really disappointed that they didn't manage to capture almost nothing of the first movie's spirit, which is part of the reason I thought it was good.


Same here. I thought it was a C+ effort... at best.

I expected so much more but most sequels never really live up to the hype.
 
Are they shooting the same scenes again?
 
I'm not sure they're really killing off the extras are they? Unless they deliberately rounded up all the ninjas so they could fire rockets at them.

:awesome:

Will be interesting to see what our ninjas can actually say. Nolan might just use his Jedi mind tricks on them to make them forget what they saw. :cwink:

I spoke with an observer outside the stadium this morning. He seemed to feel that the scenes being filmed today were smaller group scenes...possibly of fans being shot by Bane's men. He mentioned that they ended up taking fewer that the 200 extras that they were seeking late yesterday afternoon.

I also spoke yesterday with extras that were to have been in a scene with the Gotham mayor at the stadium, but as of late afternoon they hadn't been filmed and the assumption was that it would be today.
 
Hahahaha, tighter security, huh?

Nolan doesn't want any fanboy hate.
 
They have 700 extras on hand today, and the tighter security was planned before the filming yesterday so it is not an reaction to everyone spilling their guts about what they saw. They're filming the same thing as yesterday, but with more Bane audio. Remember how they cut out on the hostage parts yesterday? They won't be doing that today. That's why there's a security perimeter. You'd be surprised just how far sound carries from Heinz Field. They're also filming tighter shots of the crowd running away only to be confronted by the guys with guns.
 
The pictures from CMU seemed like they were right on set. It seems like the security was laxed yesterday at the stadium, as everyone took pictures. But today, they are really tight. Either Nolan just caught on (which I find hard to believe with the weeks of pictures, not to mention the secrecy around TDK) or he is allowing us to see certain things.

Are you there? Can you transcribe whats being said over the speakers?

I, for one, believe that Nolan knows what is being leaked and puts the clamps on when he wants...

Yeah, he is know for the secrecy around his films. I understand these are outside and all, but I still think they could try a little harder from these pics getting out. Everyone who's been online in the past few weeks have probably seen the pictures of Bane.
 
This football scene sounds truly terrifying. Such terrorism. Killing innocent people, blowing off bombs, holding people at gun-point.

Thanks! Someone yesterday posted as well that there's suppose to be a scene of the mayor and Bruce Wayne watching at the stadium. Did you see Carbonell (the guy playing the mayor) today? Bale is apparently flew to LA yesterday though so I don't know what they'll do or if that scene was scrapped.

Its kind of scary how people know Bale flew out yesterday very scary!
 
So bane is basically holding a whole 60,000 people hostage, slitting someones throat for all to see, and pretty much blowing the whole field up and killing hundreds at once....:wow:....I understand the gripes about the voice from what we heard, but seriously...holy **** this is intense.

Joker move over Bane has a replace most terrifying villain!
 
Ok here is the run down. I got to the set at around 10 am, they had you fill out disclaimer forms before you could go in. Once in you were free to just find a seat but once there you had to stay there until directed to move. where I was at there was about 24 of us there. While waiting for things to start one of the producers came over and asked us to come with him. We were taken to a room with a green screen and filmed for the national anthem sceen and for the touchdown sceen. We did about 10 takes on that. and went down to a new section close to the field for more close up work for the rest of the day. I was In the biggest sceen in the movie when Bane blows up the field and kills both team all but Ward. Bane comes out kills Hines and makes his speach. Over all the best time I have ever had. I am so sore from having to throw myself to the ground to escape the explosions and from running from the merchs. But over all It was a blast. I can't wait to see what was kept of my groups sceens and what was cut out. We were always wehere the camera was though.
