The Dark Knight Rises Discussion

DO NOT READ THIS THREAD IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE FILM AS IT WILL HAVE SPOILERS. DON'T SAY I DIDN'T WARN YOU.

So I'm guessing people have been to see it now. I have seen it twice at IMAX and I wanted to get people's views on the film. What did you like and what didn't you like?

Overall I would have to give the film 9.5/10 - The only reason I am giving it a 10/10 is for 2 little reason's, I didn;t like the fact that it didn't give Bane a proper death and I didn't like the fact that Alfred just sort of vanished of the scene before all the ending kicked off. Apart from that the film was a masterpiece, my favourite scene was the fight between Batman and Bane about half way through the film, Bane absolutely kicked the SH IT out of Batman in that scene which was a big shock the 1st time I saw the film.

My favourite character was Bane, I have never felt intimidated by someone in a film before but Bane was such a physical and mental presence in the film.

The ending wasn't predictable, I didn't expect the film to be about the story in Batman Begins with all the Raz Agul wanting to destroy Gotham.

The film had action, emotion and most importantly a fantastic story line which all add's up to a fantastic film overall.

Please leave a rating out of /10 and the best and worst thing you thought of the film. be as detailed as you like and I will read with interest.

Thanks.

Bane was a BOSS.
I thought his voice was perfect for his character.
Yeah and Bane worked batman the first time. But them painkillers>

10/10

I'm giving it a 8 out of 10.  But, I like B Begings more than TDK.  I will say TDKR was my favorite of the three.  Besides huge plot holes, I really enjoyed it.  I liked Bane more than Joker too.  TDK just had too many subpar actors that gave it a cheap feel. 

leo would been da bomb yo :/

Biggest LOL was when Bruce magically appeared in Gotham after escaping the prison.

Them fight scenes>

But like the comics Bane is the only one to ever, "brake the bat"

I was also mad the policeman who wimped out and finally grew balls would later die.

Originally posted by puertoRICAN 9/10 for me another LOL moment was when that dude was like "im in charge" to bane and bane gently puts his hand on the dudes shoulder and was like "...do u feel in charge??"  Bane taking boss status to a whole nother level

hahaha True dat :P

Also, if they cut about 35 minutes of fat of the movie, it would have been better.  ORRR, it could have been 2 movies labled The Dark Knight Falls (Ends when Bane puts him in the hole, and The 4th film would have been TDKR, giving Bat time to heal, and for Blake to figure out Bat was Wayne, giving Gotham time to fall into chaos.   Hmmm, I might have something there.  Of course the two movies would have to be modified, extra actual Batman stuff.

Yeah, one Year between Wayne in the hole in the movie, and in actual time.  So shortly after TDKF comes out on DVD, TDKR comes out in theaters.  Actually, I'm kinda bummed this isn't how it happened.

Originally posted by SP61gTSupra Originally posted by -DaGoN- @Rican  That scene, that last fight between Batman and Bane was actually my facourite scene. The intensity was amazing, I loved when Batman ducked, Bain hit the pillar, and then out of aggression he hits hit again. Also when Batman kicks Bane full force through the glass door, damn. It was played perfectly, the suspense and intensity was so damn high there.     I'll give it a 9.4/10 Downsides where mainly what Lunchy said, I agree with the lack of closure to Banes death and the "99.98%" of all police force being sent into the tunnels They say 68.35% of all percentages are made up.     ;)

That's so made up

Ive finally seen the film and id give it 9/10 for sheer entertainment. The action is superb - i really want a bat mobile lol - Bane is a great nemesis but Catwoman steals it for me she has the best lines. Is it better than TDK? For me no, the riddler was always my fave villian and Heath Ledger's performance > all. Anyway its pretty close, you dont get many sequels that deliver the quality of TDKR but its been a few years since i watched BB and I found myself trying to piece things together for a while.

btw why do people hate on tdk? i LOVE that movie. it was my fav movie for a while until this year.

When the USA was testing nukes in the ocean, you never heard of tsunamis killing people lol.
And lunchy, Are you not entertained? That scene is one of the most epic scenes ever.
I love Gladiator.

And still Bane's voice>

@trin... Technically batman beat Bane 1v1 after raping his mask. He would have finished him or let him go until his part time lover stabbed him.

I don't know if you guys ever read any of the Batman comics or know the history of the Character Robin. But to give you a little history. There have been now 4 characters that have been Batman's sidekick. And I think the movie did a good job of combining the 3 of them to make a their own version. The first being d*** Grayson who most people are familiar with. He was Robin I believe until the early early 80's. And was fired when he was shot by the Joker and soon let go by Bats because he felt he could not put a child's life in danger any longer. Now at this point he had also been a member of the Teen Titans were he then became the leader and eventually became Night Wing. Then he eventually moved to his own City BludHaven and even became a cop...Thats were the movie got the idea to make their version a Police officer. The second was Jason Todd a orphan growing up on the streets of Gotham in the area of crime alley. One of his origin stories even had Batman find him lifting tires off the Batmobile. Bats takes a liking to him after a few run ins as Batman and Bruce Wayne. After learning the boy's parents were murdered similar to his own. Bruce Wayne takes him as his ward and makes him Robin after he discovers he's Batman. Now I'm not sure how long this character was around but I know he was murdered by the Joker in the late 80's because he was reckless. And his death was actually decided by the fans in the series " Death in the family" And I believe the results were lop sided. Now the third Robin is very close to the character in the movie because he too figured out who Batman was. Tm Drake was a young rich kid who was a huge fan of Batman and Robin and actually witnessed  the event were d***'s Parents were killed at the circus. So after years and years of doing his own detective work he confronts Bruce Wayne with his discovery and actually saves his life. At first Batman did not want a new sidekick especially after Jayson's death who he eventually adopted before he died. But after Tim's parents are in a plane crash the death of his mother at the hands of some Voodoo villian. Batman decides to send him off to train with a group similar to the League of Shadows. As far as the fourth goes I just know some how he is the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia Algule..Thius must have been after I stopped reading...Sorry for the Fanboy geek session...Just wanted to point out the amalgamation of three of the comic characters made up the movie version Blake. Who I thought made sense because of Nolan's way of making the series believable.
