I think it is a great movie. I'm curious to know what everybody else thinks about it.
I think that of the three Batman movies directed by Nolan, it is the weakest, but maybe my tune will change after seeing it for a second time.
A smart ass could point out that someone capable of taking down a baddie in a crowded theater full of tear gas and chaos should be able to see the year-long, very active, Dark Knight Rises thread already going on the first page before starting their own...
That is, if there were a smart ass here.
I say TDK is the weakest one, but it doesn't take away from Heath's legendary performance. The only part I didn't like is that Selena takes out Bane. Nolan should of let Batman take him out.
Spoiler alert!
It is not that I did not see it. It is just that I wanted to start this thread so that those who have not seen it yet (yourself included, going by what you said in the thread), would not accidently read any spoilers.
I would worry first about being a dumbass before I started thinking about being a smartass.
I was personally hoping for Catwoman to become the main character of the movie. It struck me as being a little bit of a stretch that Batman, so injured at the beginning of the movie, was as able-bodied as he was to do what he did. Would have been risque, but I think the movie needed to take a chance.
There are certainly some pithy, snarky and dead eye people here.
I think TDK was the weakest, by FAR. Joker was about all it had to offer.
Batman Begins and TDKR are awesome.
What is wrong with you?
Best one of the series.
Bane was just unreal.
What's the consensus? Dark Knight Rises is better than Batman Begins but not better than The Dark Knight?
I was surprised with Anne Hathaway. Sometimes, she can be annoying as in movies but she wasn't and her butt looked good in leather. The sexual tension between Catwoman and Batman was so thick that you could cut it with a knife.
I also thought Joseph Gordon Levitt did a good job in the movie too.
Dissapointed thats all I have to say. Banes death was a huge letdown after so much buildup. Levitt is definitely a great actor though.
same here. I didn't like that Miranda was actually the mastermind and the real main villain of TDKR. It takes away a lot of the antagonism from Bane and just cheapens him and makes him out to be more an enforcer and bodyguard, than an actual villain.
Well, you really can't compare Bane to The Joker.
The Joker is the big bad in the Batman universe. Bane is not as popular or as well known as The Joker so you know who is going to win in a battle between Bane and The Joker.
I will say that Bane caused more destruction and death than The Joker did. The Joker didn't want to kill Batman because he said they were destined to do this forever. Bane didn't really care if Batman lived or died. The Joker wanted someone to challenge him and fight/stop him.
It just sucks big balls that Heath Ledger died because The Dark Knight Rises would have been epic as if The Joker had been in it especially if he had teamed up with Bane or even Two Face if Dent hadn't died in the Dark Knight.
Someone should really put a spoiler tag in the thread le.
Talia was a good antagonist and brought the story arc started in the first movie home. I loved it and it was perfect to finish out Bane's complex character.
The le of this thread is The Darknight Rises:Thoughts?.
That le pretty much guarantees that people are going to be talking about what happened in the movie which means there will be spoilers. Proceed at your own risk.
You might have a point. I forgot about Talia. I also forgot that bane has a soft side for women. As smart and buff as he is, the dude looks like the type that would be pussy whipped by hot girls.
ing assholes. Spoiling the damn movie!
Way to spoil it without having a ing warning assholes
Why are you posting in this thread or any thread related to Batman if you haven't seen the movie? You're kinda setting yourself up for failure.
OP, post #5 hole
Best in the series, IMO.
It had a couple odd, corny scenes in the movie, but I was easily able to overlook them.
As much as I liked TDK, it was heavily carried by Ledger's Joker performance. The movie was more about Joker and Dent, than about Batman. This one had a lot more focus on Batman than TDK.
Ledger's Joker was a better acting performance (although Hardy's Bane was no slouch at all, just a bit more limited in his role), but I felt Bane was a better villan, and a cooler character overall.
I was incredibly impressed at how Catwoman was worked into the movie, as that was what I was most afraid about. But they did a great job of doing so.
My only real issue with the movie was that Batman wasn't the one to finally finish Bane off.
Blake's role was a great addition to the movie.
I definitely wasn't disappointed, and I had HIGH expectations. It may have even succeeded my expectations.
Bane
I pretty much fully agree with this.
You wanted Batman to kill Bane?
