Batman 3 "The Dark Knight Rises"


Recommended Posts

The Dark Knight recieved a pg-13 certificate so comes as no surprise to me. 13 is a good rating, low enough to get a good mixed audience and fan base but also states there's going to be some fun action scenes!. Recently The Women in black got pg-13 too and many people thought it was quite spooky/scary, so it will be quite interesting to see how far Nolan has pushed the darker, more gritty scenes of The Dark Knight Rises.

I read a theory on cracked.com regarding how nolan will end the trilogy and i must say, it sounds very plausible to me. I don't want to link it here as even the url would give it away and if it is right then it would spoil the whole thing. If you are interested and don't mind a possible MAJOR spoiler then just google Advanced Batman Theory.

I'll leave you to decide this one.

I am so hyped/psyched about this one, that I haven't even watched the trailer. :laugh: :wacko: :shifty: :pinch:

I still don't get why it has to be a trilogy and why it has to end with this film. So many characters left unexplored. We saw just how good Nolan managed to do the Joker, imagine if he had scripted someone like the Riddler or Penguin. I certainly hope we havent seen the end of Batman come the end of this film.

Or better yet, how about it he had been allowed to actually use good characters in his scripts. Ok, Ras al Ghul was fine... but no Talia. The Joker (again). The best part of his movies really were the crime families.

I am pretty sick of Nolans flashy realistic Batman, and I felt The Dark Knight was quite poorly scripted.

I'd like to see someone else have a go with Batman now.

Any batman reboot (which these are) has to do the Joker, it's a given and this Joker was one of the best, though I think the Joker in the batman video games is closer to the comics but w/e. That said, I agree that we should go deeper into the universe than the movies have gone so far. But that means bringing in characters like Robin, and everyone here seems to knee jerk at that idea for some reason even though I think it can be done, and done well.

Talia would be great to have in a movie but as a character, in the universe, she doesn't come into play until a good time later, even in this 3rd film you couldn't introduce her before other characters, specially Catwoman. Now if they do a 4th later then Talia could be in that probably. But yeah, she's really one of the more newer characters so she'd be cutting in front of others, a lot of others.

The older movies were silly, too comical and for kids. Batman is best when he's dark imo. The new batman games have done a good job IMO, even story wise, but they're spot on character wise.

Nolan just stuck more to the Comics, lets face it. Comics are often very well thought out and bad issues can be slated a lot. Movies have typically took the character but not the other 90% of the comic, Nolan looked at his source material in depth to see what really makes the Character complete. In the end the Dark Knight felt like what Batman is suppose to be.

Watchmen is another good film, not dark knight level but above standard for comic book adaptations.

I haven't read the comic books, but have watched the previous ones, and in my opinion, Batman Begins was the was movie that defined Batman, and The Dark Knight was the movie that defined much more than just the genre. A whole generation, if you will

Well I would disagree. The Dark Knight didn't feel, to me, like what Batman is supposed to be; the style and atmosphere of the film is all wrong; alot of the performances were flat; and the story was poorly told. Oh and the editing was dreadful.

I'd have to disagree again. I felt Watchmen was pretty poor.

    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.

    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
