Yeah but you can't compare Joker to Bane, even in the comics. Joker is iconic even outside comics while Bane is only really famous for breaking the bat's back. I mean hell, Bane is a good guy (sorta) in the comics! lol

Maybe not the character, but the performance of the character and the stupid voice. I really can't get past that horrible voice.

Well some of the blame for his voice has to go to us (not you or me, but you know what i mean) for complaining about his voice from the trailers. Nolan said he didn't go back and change the voice, but it's pretty obvious he did. Unless he said he did someplace else I missed.

Perhaps we should have a TDKR thread under Movie Ratings? That way there's no need to throw spoiler tags, have potential for people getting upset that someone hasn't used a spoiler tag, all that jazz.

I still don't get why they don't just move movie threads there at release over the current two thread system.

Going tomorrow, can't wait.

The movie was entirely epic. I agree with the above about it being a "dark" movie. It's easily the darkest super hero movie ever and I'm still surprised it got a PG-13 rating. After watching The Dark Knight 10 times, I finally found things I didn't particurally love and I'm sure this movie will be the same, but as it stands, this movie is easily the best movie I have ever had the privelege of enjoying.

For me, it's a 10/10.

Quite good, not so good as The Dark Knight though (Course, it's way better than most recent releases). Liked the ending though the film seemed to collapse into tedium in the middle. John Blake I did quite like. Catwoman and Bane were good though Bane felt a bit off (Or at least, well,

the plan

)

Just got from seeing it.

A very good film, however it doesn't overcome Dark Knight for me.

I felt the beginning of the film was too slow and I couldn't get into it.

Tom Hardy stormed the show for me, he played Bane perfectly.

The first fight scene between Bane and Batman was my favourite scene, truly epic.

Anne Hathaway played Catwoman very well too. Overall, I would give it a 8.5/10. I agree with other comments on here, watch Batman Begins before you go.

I just came back from screening it. It was amazing. 9 out of 10. It was missing that something extra that would have pushed from fantastic to spectacular. That extra something for me, might have been

If Bruce/Batman actually died or if we did not see him at all after the bomb, but rather that it was hinted that he was still alive.

basically the only thing missing from the ending was michael cane spinning a totem to check if it wasn't a dream

Definitely an epic movie and I enjoyed the cameos as well. However, I thought it was very slow in the beginning and drawn out but it made up for it at the end (that tied up the loose ends). It will be very interesting to see how the Batman character is when they do the Justice League movie.

If they ever do a JL movie. And if they do, it won't be Nolan's Batman that's for sure. Certainly not played by Bale at the very least.

I keep seeing people say that this is the last film, but for those who've seen it, we know that there could be another, maybe not with Nolan behind the camera, but Christian Bale even said he's up for another film. This film totally sets up a fourth film too. Why else would Nolan write in Robin if there wasn't that possibility? The studio and DC Comics are able to do it without Nolan, right?

Christian Bale said he's finished with Batman, he won't do another.

I guess he put Robin in IF someone did want to do a spin-off, but I can't see it happening..

They'll do another batman, and I don't think they'll go for a reboot now with how well fans like this type of batman. If it ain't broke don't rush to fix it. Nothing wrong with getting someone new to play batman though, it's not the first time and it won't be the last time they switch. Besides I'm sure WB can get Nolan to hand it off to someone else he likes and let them run with it while he's more of an EP on the project. Like with the new Superman.

"My understanding is that this is the last one. I think it's appropriate, I think it's going out at the right time. But...if Chris came to me with a script and said, 'You know what? There is another story' then I would love the challenge of making a fourth one work," he said.

My rating: 8/10

It was a decent film but the beginning lacked focus and some of the characters seemed a bit contrived.

I found the scene where Robin was trying to save a single bus full of children to be ludicrous when there were millions of people in the city that needed to escape.

And despite its length the film still felt a bit rushed. Bane was okay as an adversary but I wasn't particularly impressed with his portrayal - I thought the Arkham games did a better job. And I found the audio quality to be pretty poor, with background noises, excessive reverb and Bane's electro-voice making dialogue hard to make out at times. I think it's the weakest film of the trilogy but still an excellent film and I much prefer the style to that of the Marvel films.

I'd like to see this style of film continued, though it would be great for the team behind the Batman trilogy to focus on some of the other DC characters. I'd love to see the Justice League done properly, especially after what they did in Smallville - but it would be a huge challenge to compete with the Avengers, particularly when most of the Marvel characters have their own films to develop the characters. Anther option would be a film that focuses on one of the traditional villains and what drives them to do what they do.

You got me there, older articles said he didn't want too but seems like he's changed his mind!

    • Microsoft unveils new Surface Laptop with improved trackpad, Snapdragon X2, and more

      By Talys · Posted

      I am not a fan of haptic feedback touchpads. I've owned a Surface Laptop 7 (Snapdragon) with one and a Lenovo Slim (Intel), and I hated both to the point where I purchased different laptops. It's not that they don't work most of the time; it's that they don't work 100% of the time, and there is no advantage from a user's perspective over a good mechanical trackpad like what's on a ThinkPad X1 or a Yoga 9i. I do not believe that I'll buy another haptic feedback touchpad laptop again in the near future.

      Works fine here too. About this build, I don't like to download any kind of Windows, from any site except Microsoft. The mod might work, but I don't know what it's inside. Can contain malware, backdoors... Long time ago I've used something like this but reversed - it was 98se with the look and some functionality  of XP. Or, later XP with Vista look. But I made it myself. Not downloaded from obscure sites.

    • Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Rockstar gives last-gen GTA V players free upgrades tomorrow by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Rockstar is preparing to launch Grand Theft Auto VI later this year, but ahead of that, the company has revealed a new offer for some Grand Theft Auto V owners. It today announced that Xbox One and PlayStation 4 version owners of the 2013-released title will soon be receiving a free upgrade to the current generation version. The studio released the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 version of Grand Theft Auto V back in 2022, bringing significant upgrades to the original console editions. This included 60 FPS gameplay at up to 4K resolution, as well as major upgrades to textures, draw distance, and audio. Faster load times, ray tracing elements, and HDR support were also added with it. While this new and enhanced version needed a new purchase of the game to jump in, now Rockstar has decided to make it a free upgrade, dropping the $40 price tag entirely on consoles. "Beginning tomorrow, those who own any PS4 version or the digital Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto V will be able to upgrade to the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S versions at no additional cost, and experience the best versions of GTA V and GTA Online," said the company in an official blog post. The free upgrade offer will be released tomorrow, June 18, for all Xbox One and PlayStation 4 owners of Grand Theft Auto V. Players who will be jumping in on the offer will want to check how to migrate their GTA Online profile from last-generation to current-generation consoles by heading over here. The offer lands ahead of The Kortz Center Heist hitting Grand Theft Auto Online, where players and crews will be tasked with stealing priceless international art from a prestigious gallery in Pacific Bluffs. It doesn't look like Rockstar plans to stop updating its previous game even with Grand Theft Auto VI being on the horizon. The latest title is slated to launch on November 19, 2026, across Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5.
