The Dark Knight Too Much Realism?

[The Guard]

He doesn't have to make The Penguin interesting. Just make him the next mob boss. It's not like Maroni will be that interesting, you know?

SPOILERS.

ILL REPEAT THAT

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS IN HERE. TDK SPOILERS, IM SPOILERS AND TIH SPOILERS. (kinda for IM and TIH, but nothing that will upset anyone)

anyone else feel like this might take the 'realism' aspect way to far for a superhero flick?

dont take this the wrong way, this movie is going to own ass. but with the new 'rumors' , that seem to be 100% true because of the sources they came from, it just seems like this could lose its superhero feel and jsut be a regular action movie. sure we have batman and the joker and two face...but we also have SPOILERS .... batman apparently going on the run from the cops again, hes been running from them all of BB (with the exception of gordon), and 2face dying apparently.

i immediately assume if face is dying, its gotta be from poisoning or infection or something. unless nolan just has him shot after 25 min of screen time. the realism side would be infection, poisoning...lets hope its a funeral for Harvey. and not for twoface. i have a feeling they have a funeral for Harvey bc he has gone so overboard crazy they want to remember who he was, not what he has become now.

batman on the run from the police and people blaming him for whats going on...i mean, realistically, the batman would have the cops all over his ass. but then again, what superhero wouldnt have the entire us govt on their ass? hopefully its more of a half the city loves batman, half the city doesnt type of thing. but he is a hero, and after 2 full movies of him being questionable, why not make it a question answered that he is here for good and when the cops cant control the craziness that is gotham city, the batman goes in. that is more of a superhero flick.

however, it would be a very interesting path nolan would take, 100% diff from the other films (spidey, supes)

hell even in the end of TIH and IM they were recognized as heroes...Hulk went on the run yes, but he can control it now. and u can bet your ass hes not gonna be on the run the entire time when new york is attacked by some beast again


again dont get me wrong, this movie will own. it will most likely be the best SH/Comic movie of all time, atleast among the best.

hopefully all that made sense

flame away



NOTE: This is all based on speculation. Nothing has been proven as FACT yet, but it might as well be given the sources.

Least, its better than all the Spider Man's and X-Mens.

All these realisms floating around can't be good for you.

Too much realism? NEVAH!

 

[Godman]

im just concerned with the fact that the realism is taking away from wild action scenes these movies lack...

I do agree the action should be more like bourne then I will have absolutely no concerns

Batman and his world work best for me when there's a sense of "hyperrealism." It may be selfish of me, but since Nolan's films appeal to my tastes I don't complain over it. I'm not saying that I want a "realistic" Batman (which would be impossible), but one whose world is much like our own but with more possibility.

This entire Two-Face issue is going to become a whole new ball of wax; I can see that much already. But I don't think Nolan's doing wrong by him. Harvey's face is gnarly? Check. He's cracked under pressure? Check. All that's left is the writing, and from what I hear the entire film works to validate Two-Face's actions, however fleeting. If you ask me, all of this "Two-Face = Venom" nonsense is just that...nonsense. Invest time in a character, watch them get 5 minutes of exposition with an action beat that's just as brief, and then tell me the two compare. Brock got a blip in a movie of the same length. This whole show's about Harvey's descent. It's apples and oranges here, folks.

Are both filled with delicious and sweet fructose?? mmm.... Twofapples and Voranges....

I also remember Bob Hoskins being suggested.

 

[KonkeyDong]

PSH for Penguin. He has my vote!

 

[I7eIVIoNBoY]

Go watch Spider-man and leave the grown-up movies to the grown-ups.

from what i have seen so far, there will be plenty of action...

i also think that the realism is the whole purpose of making these new batman movies, if you want a lighter side watch the first ones but as for me, i love these new ones...

The fact is that he has not only denied all rumours, but also refused to play the role in case of being accepted.
