The Dark Knight Rises The TDKR General Discussion Thread - - - - - - - Part 139

[Hurm...]

I have very little interest in seeing live action Blake. Very little. And I can't see such a movie getting off the ground, it's going to be a reboot. Though as said I'd be fine with a comic continuation.

I can't see them getting a respectable director on board for a continuation of Nolan's films. And HOPEFULLY, they don't want to tick off Nolan either.

Hey guys, I just heard the last Kevin Smith's Fatman on Batman podcast and he said that he read in a Batman website an article about the elements of TDKR that came from specific comics, the problem is that he didn't remember which website. Do you guys know which one he was talking about?

Probably this one.

No problem man. That guy did a great job at collecting all those panels.

Smith's TDKR podcast review was incredible by the way.

That's awesome.

That article is amazing, alot of work was put into that.

So have people torched David Cronenberg's house yet?

Meh; the really telling comment was that comics are "for kids." It's a big red flag that he doesn't actually know what he's talking about, and when people talk about things they don't know, they should just be ignored.

Similarly, I like Roger Ebert fine, but when he talks about videogames not being art you know it's time to tune about because the man doesn't know anything about videogames.

Which is sort of funny seeing as he directed A History of Violence which is a comic book adaptation.

Lol yup that's exactly what I said. It's hypocritical, and besides that it's also a snobby attitude.

He addressed that.

"A History of Violence is different because shut up." - David Cronenberg.

I wonder if he would still say that out loud if Bale didn't walk away from A Dangerous Method.

Didn't Marion turn down Cosmopolis to be in TDKR too? Maybe he's just jealous and angry lol

I went to the Yankee game this evening and for a great plays clip type of thing they played segments of Molossus and Like A Dog Chasing Cars. I immediately said out loud "why the hell are they playing Batman music?" (Obviously because the Yanks are awesome like Batman) I was most likely the only person to recognize it

So, a bit off topic from...everything going on now, lol, but I was thinking if we only count a villain's very last appearance(*cough*Scarecrow*cough*), each film of the trilogy has one villain that is still alive. Zsaz, Joker and Scarecrow. That's kinda cool that Nolan still kept villains alive that Blake will have to deal with when he takes the mantle. And I definitely won't count Falcone because the gas probably just ****ed up his old mind to the Nth degree.

Okay, done with my weird ol' rant.

Yeah a great listen for anyone who hasn't yet

Has this been posted:

I would seriously be down for this! For those who want the movies contained by themselves can just ignore the comic, and those who want further adventures gets the comics

 

[Anno_Domini]

First mission?

What does that mean?

 

[obin_gam]

I took is at meaning they're not entirely against doing a One-shot with Blake as the new dark knight just to test it's response from the audience.
