[The_Joker_hahah]

Think is from Dark Knight

Edit: I guess its from Begins

You think its from TDK? Lol. . I thought every single batfan knew the difference between the BB suit and TDK suit. Its cool though.

That image is definately from BB. More like the ending scene to be specific, when gordon hands batman the joker card in the evidence bag.

 

[The_Joker_hahah]

Oldman's a class act. Always will be. I love his portrayal of Gordon.

People were a bit on the fence as far as Bane goes when he was revealed way back. But i think its safe to say that all the doubters have been silenced. Check out the new pictures of Bane's outfit in the pictures thread. Hes one scary dude!

I remember when Gary was a very very left field choice for Gordon. Now he seems perfect for it, it's funny to think there was a time where seeing Gary play as a good guy was almost alien to us all.

Nolan is a master of left field casting choices and making them work tenfold.

Purchased my IMAX tickets for TDKR at National Media Museum here in the UK for £10 a few weeks ago, went to see Spider-man 3D (unfortunately) on Tuesday and it cost me £9.60.

I go to the same IMAX. It's so expensive

A bit of a Freudian slip there.

Oldman is that good.

Indeed. It made me appreciate Oldman even more. If he'll continue to play only "good" guys, that's fine by me.

Freudian slip indeed! what a testament to his talent

It may not be the case, but what Gary says about Caine has me wondering if they do have some scene together this time...

Personally when it comes to critic reactions, theres only one thing i want to hear, if it's better than TDK or not, it may not be that easy and it may be better in some regards and worse in others but overall it should be easier to gauge the experience in relation to the 2nd film.

In my eyes if it's not as good as TDK, then it's a slight disappointment to me, even if it ends up being one of the best films ever, purely because when you raise the bar with a film like TDK, Nolan strikes me as the guy who would only make another one if he believed and set out to raise it even higher. If he doesn't do that, no matter how good or successful the film is, he's failed somewhat.

 

[Naked Shia]

I think it'll be a more painful experience for both the heroes and the audience anyway.

Nolan won't fail. Not yet.

You do realize that Batman was still wearing the original suit before his visit to Hong Kong right?

This could also be the scene where Batman meets Gordon and Dent on the roof to plan on how to get Lau back to Gotham.

Yes, I know Dent is not in this frame but he could be off screen. In fact the cameras may not even be rolling in this shot.

It could also be the end of Batman Begins but please refrain from being an a,ss like you know all that is Batman.

The fact that you failed to realize that Batman didn't show the new costume until later in TDK makes you look foolish.

It's definately from Begins, but I agree with your point completely.

Thats What I was thinking it was

 

[dinste1]

I really am looking forward to what's happening on the 8th of July!

I hope it's clips.

That'll be keep me going. Like the IGN ones. Just even give us one or two and I'll be a happy man!!

 

[venus_ice]

So, that is the second time we have heard that its better than TDK.

I think someone should keep a 'better than tdk' tally.

 

[Sidekick94]

I dont really wanna see full clips until the night I see the movie but if thats what it is Ill just (TRY TO) ignore them

 

[Deserana]

Hmm I wonder how Alfred and Gordon end up in the same scene...

 

[TheScarecrow]

The picture of Gordon and Batman on the roof is from Begins.

It's 100% definitely a promotional picture from Begins. I remember because it was subject to months of speculation after Begins as to whether or not Batman had a slightly different suit at the end of the movie.

 

[Sharkboy]

The way i see it, I've already spoilt the film for myself anyway with set reports, score samples, interviews, bunch of tv spots and endless speculation...few clips won't hurt.

Its not seeing them that would hurt its that i would rather see them in the context of the film not by themselves. Although when clips get released its gonna be real hard not to watch (Unless its that overplayed "My Wife" scene)

I went into TDK knowing everything. Yet it still didn't spoil it totally for me as I had no idea about major deaths, the ending and big points in the film.

Just little set pieces. And of course all of the score beforehand.

It is like a book, really. Reading say, LOTR or The Road. You still don't feel it is a ruined experience despite knowing a lot.
