The Dark Knight Rises The official Lucius Fox/Morgan Freeman Thread

[Ramsay Snow]

If Fox is killed, then my winter gloves will come off.

 

[MrWayne]

Wonder why he hasn't been in any of the trailers or any video footage at all for that matter.. Hmmm...

 

[Ramsay Snow]

It's because Fox is the ace-in-the-hole in Nolan's story.

If the leaked call sheets are true, he'll still be alive long after they got the tumblers.
I wouldn't put any faith in those rumours of Fox or Blake's death scenes.

Yup. I believe those call sheet info. The set pics/reports when the actual shoot day came completely backs up the info that we were told from the call sheet. Fox is alive even after Tatelia/Bane got the Tumblers. Very much alive that he was helping Bruce prepare The Bat for the City Hall showdown.

The rumors about Fox' and Blake's death came from the same source who said that the prologue will have scenes of Bane coming out of the well with Ra's (Liam) looking from above so yeah I'm not giving those rumors any more weight. The only real thing that have come out from that source was that the prologue will have a plane crash but that's already been a popular guess among us anyway since we saw the set pics and learned that the prologue involves Bane.

Best news I've heard in a while!

I'm not sure how involved Fox will be, but you just have to think that when Batman decides to come back, Fox is going to be crucial for him, IMO there is a contingency that Alfred may NOT be in Bruce's corner when he decides to come back and Fox may be the one to aid Bruce and possibly get Alfred to come on board...speculation on my part, but how much of what we read is?

While I love Morgan Freeman, i fear the worst for Lucious in this flick. Up to this point, he's kinda been more of a Batman than Bruce Wayne has. He's been by far the smartest person in the movies (outside of the ever omnipotent Joker). He basically holds Bruce's hand through everything. That being said, Nolan seems to fancy wiping out any ethnic characters with meaning without hesitation. Maybe this time it will actually further the story in that Bruce will get pissed and take it out on the villain. I'm not a fan of these movies, but every so often they establish something that actually DOES improve on the source material. The sort of hard-nosed Father/son relationship between Bruce and Lucious IS actually kinda refreshing.............which makes me believe all the more that Lucious' day's are numbered

In my humble opionion Freeman's Lucius Fox is a very underrated character. I absolutly love him!!!!!!!

 

[CapedCrusader14]

Everybody loves Lucius

[Pagan]

but Morgan Freeman was not there when they filmed it right?

the only time I recall seeing him at all was in LA at the building they constructed over the spillway where they did that "flood" scene.

 

[The Morningstar]

Freeman is a great Q... ooops i mean Lucius Fox.

 

[I Am The Knight]

but Morgan Freeman was not there when they filmed it right?

At City Hall? He would get killed

I've seen this written numerous times. What is the basis of this claim?
What about all of the caucasian characters being wiped out?

Where? When they were filming him helping Bruce prepare The Bat? He was there. Our LA ninjas saw him.

This thread needs some loving. Clip with Fox and Bruce!

The dynamic/chemistry in these films, especially with the main four of the cast(Bale, Oldman, Freeman, Caine) is extremely underrated.

Clip was solid.

At this point i see alfred dying as a stronger possibility

 

[The Caped Knight]

We've come full circle
