I looked at the page source. For over 10,000 votes, there's five jpgs. I'm assuming we can expect an update every 2,000 votes?

I guess I'll post it here as well...

Bale talked about Batman during the Flowers of War press junket last Tuesday. It's for the foreign press so it was in Portuguese but here it is from Google Translate:

http://cinema.uol.com.br/ultnot/201...iz-que-e-como-dar-adeus-a-um-velho-amigo.jhtm

"I do not know how much I can say ..." said Christian Bale, his face a little apprehensive. "In general Chris Nolan gets upset if the actors talk too much, he likes to give himself the information ..."

The actor was quickly in Los Angeles for the release of the movie "War of Flowers" by Zhang Yimou, which plays the leading role of an American lost in the battle between Chinese and Japanese in Nanking in 1937.

Five days earlier, had ended their participation Bale in "Batman: The Dark Knight rises," the third and final part of the trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan. "It's like saying goodbye to an old friend," he admits. "When you have the opportunity to be a character so many times, you develop a relationship with him another, more profound."

For the actor, his portrayal of Batman has always been based on a concept that has developed along with Nolan, "How long will you let the pain and loss define your life? Walking around chasing bad guys is very heroic and attracts attention, but at the end of accounts all begins as a means of dealing with the pain of a huge loss. "

Bale says he and Nolan also worked in another dimension of character, especially important in the last film. "We agreed that Bruce Wayne is absolutely sincere as Bruce Wayne as Batman and utterly sincere. But Bruce Wayne, Playboy, is pure facade, is a lie he has, somehow, to control one side of your soul that is not really under control. In fact, only Alfred even know who he is. "

The "Dark Knight rises" marked the hour of decision for this dilemma, says Bale. "It's time to face Bruce Wayne actually older than the pain has always stirred his life." Rotate the world in seven different locations chosen by Nolan was "a pleasure aside, Bale guarantees." It's really a privilege to work well, even with the extraordinary troupe of actors who always manages to meet Chris in his movies. "

Nice, kvz5... thanks t:

 

[ThePhantasm]

So is he saying there is in fact an older Bruce in this film?

Glad we will revisit Bruce's pain and character backstory again. Hoping this film is a bit more Bruce-centric than TDK was.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Thanks kvz5

 

[Mako]

Nice find kvz5.

 

[craigdbfan]

Good interview.

 

[film4life]

12000, another update!

 

[Yurka]

So it seems like every 2,000 then huh?

 

[Caped Crusader]

That picture of Batman climbing up on the bridge is he without his cowl?

 

[Blue Sugar]

It seems they will definitely go back and adress the very core of Batman. The pain and the loss of his parents.

He also hints at the question of how long you can let the pain and loss rule your life. Bruce Wayne is becoming older than his own pain.

Yezzir

 

[AnneFan]

I'm heading off for now. Hopefully when I return real progress has been made with these stills.

 

[ThePhantasm]

Another Bane sliver revealed: the bottom of "fights, sex scenes"

 

[kvz5]

That picture of Batman climbing up on the bridge is he without his cowl?

I think so but someone pointed out that the nose is too pointy to be without a mask?

 

[ThePhantasm]

That picture of Batman climbing up on the bridge is he without his cowl?

No, it looks like he has his cowl on to me. Look at his nose and the back of his head.

 

[Caped Crusader]

Guess it'll be a mystery

 

[craigdbfan]

Yeah upon closer inspection it's hard to tell really.

 

[kvz5]

It's probably with the cowl because Bale was done shooting when they shot that. Unless they CGI his face a la Social Network.

 

[Blue Sugar]

I think the pic looks overall wierd, but maybe it's just the bad quality. I don't see a cape?

 

[Octoberist]

You have to consider its a bit hard to climb a ladder on a big bridge like that. I'm sure they place back the cape
when he's on top!
