Batman 3 "The Dark Knight Rises"


Recommended Posts

Bought my ticket this morning for the noon showing at my local theater. It's not the IMAX (can't justify spending $100, including gas, to see a movie since the closest IMAX is in Nashville or Little Rock), so I'll just have to make due and enjoy it anyway. Can't wait. Only 48hrs and 44mins to go!

If you like good posters yes. When I saw the final price including shipping and tax would be $58 I almost didn't, but then I figured I would be mad at myself later so I got it.

Bought it! Delivery charges weren't pretty as it will be going to another continent, but looks to be worth it.

Plan on going to see it Friday night with my wife. Would usually do like a matinee show on either Saturday or Sunday, but she is going to be gone for the weekend, so going to brave the crowds for release night, hoping I do not regret doing so.

Ugh, I'm not going now sadly. Turns out my friend (who has the car) can't go and the showtime I had would preclude me from taking the bus to the mall to go to the movies there. So I have to wait until next week now. So, eh no biggie I guess.

The Dark Knight Rises is one of the greatest films of all time and a perfect end to the best film trilogy ever created. As far as the future of the franchise I would almost rather see a JLA movie go without Batman then to see someone else reinterpret it so quickly.

Buuuuuuuuuttttttt I would totally be down with JGL being Batman

It was a nice closing to a great trilogy.

In the back of my mind, I knew the twist was coming but couldn't remember to figure it out cause I was too busy awaiting the conclusion of Bane vs. Batman 2. :freak2: Great twist btw. Bane was a good villain but he's no Joker. In the end of the film, nobody will really remember him. I though Nolan fixed Bane's lines. My gosh, he needed subtitles in all his scenes. Hathaway was a great choice for Catwoman. Good gracious she was hot in this film. Did anyone else beside me laugh when they saw the Scarcrow again? Nice easter egg there Nolan. There's won't be a Robin spin off. Blake can't fight. But again, it was nice of Nolan to add that in. I couldn't stop nickpicking a lot of stuff but I've also learn no movie is perfect.

idk about Bane being forgotten. After all he broke the Bat. Yeah he was not as memorable as the Joker but still had some scenes that rivaled some of the Best for the joker. But having seen all 3 films the Jokers dialogue at the end of TDK where he is hanging upside down is my favorite scene of the films.

Saw it at midnight last night... wow. It was amazing. I'm not so sure that it was more entertaining than The Dark Knight, but I do believe that it was a very solid movie and a great ending to a great set of movies. There are various twists and turns that keep you glued to the screen, and I did not feel like I was there for 2:45.

I cannot stress enough that one should re-watch Batman Begins (and TDK, if you can, but BB is the important one) if you haven't seen it in awhile.

I must say it was quite epic, and agree re watching batman begins would help. Im guessing thats why most theaters in my area were doing a marathon before the premiere. The cast was fantastic, anyone notice it was like an inception reunion haha. All jokes aside, it was definitely darker than the other two, not saying the things the joker did were not dark and kind of weird, but this one just felt painful in some scenes. I will miss this series.

Can't wait for his rendition on man of steel!

Horrible. Sorry, but while parts of it were enjoyable, on a whole, the film was an epic disaster. Bane was such a terrible choice and I had a feeling they wouldn't be able to pull the character off. That voice, it was so bad. I couldn't take the character seriously with that stupid voice. Ugh! And Catwoman? She was barely even developed, such a static and useless character. Nowhere near as good as the first two. And Bane was horrible compared to Ledger's Joker.

5/10 stars

    • Where is the "Wow!" emoji? This'll have to do 🤩
    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
    • If it makes anybody happy, others will need to be bitter about it. (apologies to Yogi Berra)
    • I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
