I don't mind a new batman personally for a 4th movie later though.

But which director would ever want to try and follow in Nolans shoes? Talk about a tough act to follow. At least when Nolan had a go at redoing the Tim Burton movies he made it less comic book, and more dark.. not sure what take anyone else would be able to have on Batman next?

That's true, but if we're talking a 4th movie and not a reboot then Nolan can just move over to the executive producer role and the new director, whoever it is, can just stick with the same dark Nolan theme and not change the formula at all. Only reboots need to redo things but a sequel can stick to the same format without issue, and in the end it works great so why change it?

I certainly don't want them to continue on in this vain. But I don't see why there has to be a complete "reboot". A new intepretation doesn't need to start at square one again.

Agreed. Just look at Spiderman/Superman. I'm tired of rebooting franchises simply to try and gain a new crowd or because sales weren't as high as expected. They need to find someone who can continue on after this movie. I'm sure there is someone that could do it.

Well I don't mean that I want a fourth film in this series(dunno if that's what you meant). I'd like to see a new batman that doesn't relate to this series, but also doesn't start at square one.

And I'd like to see it go the opposite route and be more fanastical like the comics. Villians like Clayface, Killer Croc, etc, would all be great to see in live action with out trying to make it "realistic".

What? People didn't know this? I guess maybe I just follow the comics too much when it comes to batman but those two come very close to hooking up for good iirc. Besides, as of now, comics wise, I think there's a different catwoman, just like there's been 5 or so Robins to date.

I'm certainly well aware of their relationship in the comics, but that doesn't mean that Nolan followed the comic strictly. The trailer shows that he certainly kept her as an on again, off again ally, and we'll have to wait and see if they do become romantically involved.

I went to the National Media Museum earlier this week (brilliant place to go if you love all media-related things (Y) ) and grinned when I saw this nod to the film in the room where the IMAX projectors are kept inside the museum ....

The image has a bit of noise due to the digital zoom being used on my iPhone as the boxes were far back in the projector room but if you can't read - it says "Dark Knight Rises Black Eye" :p

Character posters awesome, movie poster not so much. But that's only because I have seen the previous posters. For the general public that makes WB straight cash, they don't notice. Or WB hired summer students from a digital art school and this is the result of their Photoshop project.

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By [deXter] · Posted

      I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.

    • Nearly half of American adults now use AI, but concerns are also growing

      That is the thing, how many of these people don't realise they are using AI? If they use Google Search they have no choice but to use AI. So yes, maybe half of American adults do use and I expect a lot of Uk adults do to, but I bet most of them don't realise it. Myself, i avoid the rubbish.

      They use FREE AI. They aren't paying for this meme-generating slopware...
