Dark Knight Rises (Spoilter Alerts) Avoid This thread if you haven't seen it.

First off, if you haven't seen this movie yet, avoid this thread at all freaking costs. I want this to be a discussion with those who have seen it.

If you haven't don't go blaming me for what your about to read you have been thoroughly warned.

Alright now that we have gotten that disclosure with.



Alright who saw it?

LOVED IT! Of course.....

I'm sure many have said this before, but man is my favorite super hero, long before this movie came out, even since I was watching Batman:TAS when I was much younger hatchling.

Points of interest:

-seriously WTF is with Bane and his voice. He looks cool and all, but why do the toughest most badass badguys have to sound like pussies. Why give him an English-gentleman's accent? He's supposed to be like a Cuban Luchador. Me and my friends absolutely LAWL'D at one point in the movie where he states "Impossible" - when batman ignites his logo in a signal fire on the bridge. My friends and I are going to be laughing for days about his accent.

-Thalia al-Ghul was forced into the plot in my opinion, it was just too convenient that she tried to finish Ra's legacy, even though she hated him for putting away Bane. In canon, she's in love with batman and adores her father. It flies in the face of the original story, but Nolan has taken many liberties with the original story anyway.

-Robin John Blake. being devout fans of the mythology behind the hero, me and my friends knew early on who the guy was intended to be. For those who didn't know, Tim Drake, aka, the third Robin or later known as "Red Robin". The name was just too similar, might as well have named him Tim Drake after all. At first I was annoyed that Joseph Gordon Levitt was even cast in the movie, but then his character described his origins and his parents in the the movie and I got real pumped about the fact that in the Nolan-Batman Universe, he was going to be Robin. All that was missing, was seeing him don Batman's suit, spray it red and run around with a Bo-staff. I would seriously die in orgasmic fanboy-dom if they did a spinoff with him as Robin. He seriously looks like he pull a legit Robin. And Wayne did him give all the tools needed to get started at the end of the movie.

-"The Bat" - or the Bat-Wing, was effing badass to and deserves honorable mention. As do some of the other minor characters from the universe like John(aka Roland) Daggett.

I have to say, that in the back of our minds, the recent shooting was kind of a worry, there was this one scene, where Bane and his goons infiltrate stock-market trading floor and are definitely spraying tons of rounds, and gave us that uncomfortable feeling for a second, but everything went without a hitch.


The movie was badass and a good way to close the trilogy, and I'm content to say that we no longer have to worry about hearing Christian Bale's dumbass voice when he plays as Batman. No one can top Kevin Conroy at Batman

Yes, I saw it.

Yes, it was a great movie. I enjoyed it immensely and I plan to see it again.

Ah yes, the Bat. A wonderful machine!

For a film meant to be "the end of the legend", they sure left it very open-ended.

I also saw it and loved it. Probably will see it again this week. The film had more in common with "Batman Begins", than "The Dark Knight". I loved seeing the Tumbler's return. Man I wished a had a remote control tumbler.

Anne Hathaway was great as catwoman

I agree with the Thalia al-Ghul being a plot point. I could tell early on Miranda Tate was up to no good. She was what I refer to as the useless Matlock character syndrome. Whenever I used to watch "Matlock" years ago I could tell who the killer was pretty easily by what character was not needed. The same goes for this instance.

The last two short scenes in the fillm I would have swtiched around. First, it would have been John Blake finding the Bat Cave and seeing another Batman suit. I would have pissed myself if it showed him spray painting it red. Do you know how cool that would have been?

There was not the payoff I hoped for with Alfred seeing Bruce Wayne and Selena Kyle at the end. This should have been the final scene and a tad longer. At least another five to seven seconds or so. We see Alfred sitting down and sipping his drink. Then there should have been a cut to bruce wayne and Selena. Maybe smiling to each other, holding hands. One last glimpse as a voyeur from the audience of the chemistry they have. Then a cut back to Bruce Wayne seeing Alfred and nodding. Alfred smiling by this finally after all these years is relieved and joyous. Because Bruce Wayne is finally happy and able to "Live".

Christopher Nolan took many liberties with a few of the batman comics but I can tell he wanted to go after a more realisitic and gritty version. To make it seem like it was not based off a comic book.

All this being said the movie was very good but the events in Aurora, Colorado will always taint this film. I still cannot believe that actually happened. My heart goes out to the families of what happened. This could of happened anywhere.

Saw it last night and it was great . I'm not much into the comics and I have grown up watching Batman since the 90s with Michael Keaton and Val Kilmer as batman and now Christian Bale and gotta say his voice make me laugh every time. I had no idea who Bane was so I had no expectation on his character and I thought he was great . The mask the voice the size of the man all together made a great bad guy and was totally creepy and scary IMO . After batman kicked bane ass and got stabbed in the back by that bia and was revealed the love between her and bane I could help but think batman should have said to bane I kicked your ass and fucked your girl ! Lol I absolutely loved cat women !


The tragedy in Colorado was in my head the entire time. I couldn't help but think what if someone tries that stupid shit again. Watching the shooting scenes was very uncomfortable . I'm my head I had already sized up everyone and had a plan of action should some thing have gone down but glad to say everything went off with out a hitch.

I enjoyed the movie and of course since I ride a motorcycle I see the tumbler and dream about taking a ride on it. I'm glad they didn't make the cat woman character into a laughable sideshow. Anne Hathaway and this version was the best version I've seen (plus shes so f'ing hot I had a chubby in every scene she was in). Ultimately this wasnt as good as the dark knight, but it's unfair to compare it to that movie. On it's own it was a good movie but the 3rd best of the 3.

It had much more in common with Batman Begins than anything and I thought it was very good. The Bane character goes way back to 1993 or 1994 and it was a year long comic. That resulted at the time in the finale of the knightfall series begine one of the most sold comic books at the time.

It dealt with a character called Bane who was pumped up full of steroids. This was why he was so big and powerful. He broke all inmates out of Prison and they took their turns beating the holy bat hell out of Batman. To the point when it was time for Batman and Bane to go mano o mano Batman was out of gas. He had nothing left, He was running on fumes. If he tried to get laid all that would be left is probably cum dust. So Bane broke his back.

I loved how it copied the ending of HOUSE

Haha...Bane sounded like an English Darth Vader! I was surprised to see Tom Hardy play that part. I liked the movie, but my ATF Batman movie is still The Dark Knight...with Heath Ledger playing the Joker. My favorite Bat Toy in this movie was...the Bat Bike!!

with all due respect Nikki ==> this is my favorite "toy"

Actually...

I of my favorite toys is... Nikki!

Favorite toy from the Dark Knight Rises...
