What's everyone most excited to see in TDKR?

Liam Neeson

 

[Jedm1991]

It is in the sequence but not in the same exact place.

Also, is the "Why didn't you just *kill me*" one sentence or is that spliced for the trailer?

 

[Tacit Ronin]

It is in the sequence but not in the same exact place.

And this is already confirmed by Nolan, but I want to be absolutely sure; Is Catwoman really never called Catwoman once?

 

[vaden78]

My favorite thing about Bane is the way he turns his head and body around. Like he's ready for anything and confident he can't be defeated.

agreed. but his amazing voice intrigues me. And the description of him being an "intellectual snob". That mixed with his propensity for extreme, methodical, and violent physicality.

 

[Bat-Gasm]

Alberto Falcone. And Azbats.

 

[Boom]

I'll admit. After spending months *****ing about the LoS returning in this film, I will probably get a huge kick out of seeing Neeson again.

Hathaway credited her breakout role as a magazine editor assistant in 2006's Prada as fundamental training her for the required action in Dark Knight. It gave her the leg up on the skills needed to kick right alongside Batman (Christian Bale).

"The Devil Wears Prada was really good training for that," Hathaway said at a press conference on Sunday. "I kind of ran all up and down Manhattan then. Now I just ran up and down Gotham."

"It's just part of being a woman," she adds of the heel work. "You figure it out."

Hathaway says she was not pressured to look good in her skin-tight leather cat suit for the role. But she was expected to train to do her own fighting.

"I felt very lucky," Hathaway said. "Sometimes there's a mandate that comes to you, a deal of how you have to look. The way I was treated on this movie was 'Learn how to do what you need to do. And then, however you look that's the way the character looks.' "

"I felt as a woman, very protected that way," she adds.

Ending years of speculation and finally confirming that

Spoiler

Reese is the Riddler.

 

[Ramsay Snow]

I'm excited for Bruce coming back, climbing the well and fighting without his batsuit in order to escape prison - while Why Do We Fall plays

[El KnightoDarko]

Teh sensuality. t:

 

[StarLord]

Nice.

 

[Nevincer]

Where the heck did this come from? Have I missed something?

 

[EliteF50]

I can't imagine anyone else playing Nolan's Bane.

 

[Ramsay Snow]

The DEW featurette that you shunned

 

[Havok_NL]

Where the heck did this come from? Have I missed something?

It's from the Dew video I believe.

 

[Nevincer]

I'm presuming the gif is from the featurette? Must have been a blink and you miss it thing because I've watched it a few times and dont think I caught that particular shot.

 

[KalMart]

Scoop/Shape (Scape? Shoop?),

Did this movie have a markedly different color-tone to the whole look of it from TDK? The poster art et al made TDK feel like it was going to be predominantly blue (almost Cameron-like), but it was actually rather neutral in comparison, but perhaps a bit on the cold side. Does this movie have more of a desaturated feel/loo, or is it similar to to TDK's but with more daytime stuff?

 

[Nevincer]

The DEW featurette that you shunned

Oh. Ohhh. Meh, excuse me for not rewatching tons of recycled footage for just *that*

 

[Anno_Domini]

Since this movie deals with class warfare, I think it's only appropriate to repost this quote from Batman Begins.

Ra's al Ghul: "Over the ages, our weapons have become more sophisticated. With Gotham, we tried a new one - economics."

So...is Bane just doing what the League used to do back in the day?

Posting this from my phone so pardon any spelling errors.

To me, I'm not excited about one particular aspect of the film. Its not often that we all are handed such a dedicated, well put together series of films such as these. The Godfather series comes to mind, as do the first three Alien films - but let's be honest, the tertiary installments in those series fell really flat comparatively.

Taking the first two Nolan Batman films and removing them from the source material, we're still left with two extremely well made films composed by a director who seemingly saw a really great story to tell. This story just so happened to revolve around a character that we all love and are passionate about, which only serves to fuel the fire, so to speak.

I'm most anxiously anticipating the final installment because of the fact that I truly think it will live up to the first two films - which, again, we all love. I don't know that I have been so excited about a movie in my life - and I'm almost 30. Really it comes down to the fact that the first two were SO well put together, and thought out. And from everything we've seen, read, and heard - the third one promises to be that same type of experience, which is so rare to have happen in a single film, let alone three in a row.

I absolutely can't wait to see this story end, because if it's as good as the first two - it will be a genre defining piece of work. Maybe something we won't have the privelage of seeing again, for a really really long time.

Not only that, there were some other shots and some shots had sound effects too.

 

[TheIrishAvenger]

It also had a better looking football scene.

I'm excited for robin
