Awesome trailer. And it's probably logic to assume that those thumblers are indeed of Batman's private army. Someone mentioned this already that Batman would gather up his own little army.

Not sure what's going on, but the "download" links on apple's trailer page don't work, they just redirect to the main trailers page. Will have to check out the youtube version.

Indeed.

Avenger will, no doubt, be a hit, in every way, and it may even surpass The Dark Knight Rises in Box Office but The Dark Knight Rises will still be superior to it.

I have no doubt about it that both will be good movies, but this one is in another class

I doubt very much that the Avengers will surpass The Dark Knight Rises. The Dark Knight was one of thee highest grossing of all time: Number 10 World Wide. Domestically only Titanic and Avatar grossed more than it.

It is also the number #1 Comic Book Adaptation movie of all time. Looking past Spiderman 1 - 3, which are respectively 2 to 4 on the all time Comic Book Adaptation movie list, only Ironman comes closest: grossing approximately less than 50% of the total gross of The Dark Knight.

I believe just like with TDK: the TDKR will also gross above the billion mark.

I truly hope so

One thing is crystal clear though, one of these two will break Avatar' record.

I think it showed just enough to wet the appetite, not to much like most other trailers these days.

oh I agree. Infact I would have shown half what it should. I just generally think it was pretty poorly constructed as I trailer. But from that trailer the film looks awfully bland; it looks like a TV film.

CGI looked really poor, but I think in the final movie it's gonna be better.

I sure hope so. But it still looks like a dumb scene.

I did like Banes voice though...

I doubt either movie will break Avatar's record. Avatar was unexplainable lol. TDKR will be epic though. I really hope this movie is like 2.5 to 3hrs long though too. I feel that it needs to be to finish out the story. On another note, I agree that the CGI football scene really did look pretty bad. Very obvious it wasn't real. I'm not sure how they'll be able to fix it or make it look more realistic without completely redoing the whole thing, because it looks so bad. Then again, I'm not sure how important it is to the movie, but with something as simple as that looking that bad, I really hope Nolan isn't using very much CGI in the rest of the movie. I know he tried to keep most of it real, but we'll see. Also the scenes with the batwing, not sure how that will look either. The leaked videos of it on the truck made it look like it had a very strange motion while it was moving.

So long as they don't force it to be that length. I felt TDK could have easily been cut down. The whole boat thing near the end of TDK was just awful; they should have cut that whole thing out.

With regards to some of the comments on this thread, it is good to know that humans like Christopher Nolan are capable of arrogance. Why would anyone take the suggestion of removing the climax boat scene from The Dark Knight, or believing that the CGI in the football scene was any less spectacular than the cartoon called Avatar?

All you guys saying the football scene looked "horrible" have your CGI expectations set way too high. Hardly anything looks real with CGI, get over it.

Have you seen transformers in 3D at the cinema? Poor CGI never breaks the immersion there, all is done very well (they did crash ILMs computers after all :p ), football scene looks like it was rendered with low / medium quality settings (probably they have been rushing the trailer).

U kiddin'?

Nope. Don't get me wrong, I think the reasons for the boat scene were sound, but it was so tedious & poorly played out, it just wasn't believable. I felt like I was watching a poor TV show. It feel in sharp contrast to many other scenes which were far too brief.

My critique was not solely about the CGI. There was no place for that scene in the trailer; out of context it just looks dumb. And if the CGI isn't going to be of a certain quality then they should think up something else.

It's part of Bane's terrorizing of Gotham, so how exactly is it "out of context"? If it were, say, the first of many crimes he commits, what great setting like an American football game?

I still don't see understand how infinitely awful the CGI was that several here keep making it out to be. Could it have looked better? Yeah, but it sure could have looked far worse. I think it's fine. Maybe I don't consider myself an expert. I should stop since this will only be a revolving discussion with no one conceding.

Fair point, but I feel it seems like they are forcing an action scene in to a trailer which just doesn't really look it has a place in a Batman film... if that makes sense. meh, i am probably being a bit anal :pinch:

It doesn't look awful... but it just doesn't look right, kind of like a made for TV film. It's also partly the color tones and cinematography. It just looks odd to me.

I do not know about that. Avatar was using gimmick 3D and charging almost 50% more per ticket so the TDK and TDKR will unfortunately never be able to gross as much. It is , at least in TDK's case, considered a far better movie though.

They JUST finished filming and there is approximately 7 months to the release date........

    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By +samw61 · Posted

      But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.

      Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • DWARF mini review: the world's smallest smart telescope for night and day sky captures

      Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
