The Dark Knight Rises The 79th TDKR General Discussion & Speculation Thread

[Ramsay Snow]

I've been under the impression that the color filter of choice for this movie was some sort of grey, which makes everything look bleak and overcast, sort of.

Yeah, I've heard that too!

 

[Dark Sentinel]

Appropriate, actually. Though to me the filter looks almost silver in a way. There's a coldness to it.

 

[Reek]

jesus the lag continues... is it the amount of people on the boards, maintenance, or an unknown entity slowly stealing our souls?

 

[Sharkboy]

I think the daytime scenes will be something like Children of Men, where it's daylight but everything looks so drab.

I'm surprised you've seen the film Roguey.

Whilst I agree Sharky, I'd say there was an extra bit of context with Joker's line because he was literally referring to the fact that they were opposing forces that both had reason for not eliminating one another.

In that case it easily works very well with Bane and Batman, especially towards the climax. Two opposing forces throughout Gotham, the dissenting terrorizing "firestarters" and the scattered but righteous do-gooders all of them led and focused on two points that being Bats and Bane, that final battle will have a LOT of pathos behind it.

Yeah , my friend briefly told me about it and after a long time, I watched it - a long time ago. Lovely.

The hype gods demand blood. Only then can this place function properly. I say we give them thread managers blood.

 

[Reek]

Human sacrifice, you say... Hmm...

This needs to be put to a vote in the lounge...

 

[Atom Ant]

Not only has this lag been sucking but god these ad's too

yeah I think this site needs new code. I'm surprised people here haven't abandoned it for another site long ago.

it wasnt always like this... the kind people on here introduced me to adblock...

 

[Marvolo]

The ads have gotten worse as of late and the lag well I've never seen anything like it outside of a trailer leak or something of that sort.

 

[-Arya-]

So any word yet on the run time for this film?

 

[Marvolo]

2 hr 40 min

Its not been confirmed tho

I've ran adblock for years. this site has bandwidth issues. had them before the ads. it's just worse now.

 

[Boom]

So any word yet on the run time for this film?

Best 56 minutes of your life, from what I've been told .

Best 56 minutes of your life, from what I've been told .

The last 56 min? Sounds awesome

 

[Nevincer]

No, the whole film will be 56 minutes.

 

[Boom]

No, the whole film will be 56 minutes.

Including the credits, of course.

Quick question, perhaps a dumb one. Were the t-shirts from the Design Contest (where Nolan picked the winners) named prior to being chosen? I only ask because the name of the winner (Hello Mr. Wayne) may have been chosen by Warner Brothers which could be one of Bane's lines in the movie, perhaps one he says prior to demolishing the Batman.

Either way, I think it's a great line for Bane and would work quite well in the movie.

 

[Nevincer]

Including the credits, of course.

And also including the 15 minute short film of Michael Caine carving a tangerine that plays before the actual film kicks off. They compressed the story down to a good 30 minutes, which is impressive. I think he took some liberties leaving it that long, some people will complain that it drags but Nolan did the best with the material he was given.

 

[Marvolo]

I'm just glad its not 1hr 56min like originally reported. I mean that would have been one bloated film.

Nice find with the Rolling Stone pic. Is the part about why Bane wears the mask new? It doesn't ring a bell with me...

I don't remember that much, but I think it was hinted in the EMPIRE Magazine article.

We heard similar things from Lindy Hemming back in November when the January issue of Empire became known. She said that Bane was "injured early in his story. He's suffering from pain and needs gas to survive. He can't survive the pain without the mask. The pipes from the mask go back along his jawline and feed into the thing at the back, where there are two canisters of whatever it is–the anesthetic."

Never get tired of AD references.
