Emanuel Levy : A

Most poorly written review ever?

Unlike Nolan’s previous feature, Ïnception,”which might have been too complex (and convoluted) for its own good, with dreams within dream and often uneasy transitions from the conscious to the subconcious and unconscious levele, “Dark Man Rises””

The odd spoiler here or there, but it's still worth a skim. For those of you wanting a bit more detail, don't worry. As Emmanuel himself says:

A lomger review will be published later today.

Not up yet ..

Oops when i meant rotten i meant negative, disregard the word rotten

 

[Tookay]

I read this as "Doesn't read as spoiler heavy" (not your fault, haha), so I took a look.


Yupp. Definitely don't read it. Let me sum it up: Critic thinks it's the best in the trilogy. Downside is that he introduced a Mitt Romney comparison.

Yeah that review practically spoils the whole damn thing.

there be spoilers everywhere, so much net to avoid D:

The whole movie's plot is pretty much out there now. I'd stick to GAF if you can.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Is Joker in this one? I love the Joker.

Fuck that noise. Where's Riddler?

 

[Solo]

GAF is our safehouse.

 

[DMczaf]

Now I sorta wish WB kept the embargoes up. A couple of reviews outright say the ending in the opening paragraph lol

 

[Oddduck]

Another rotten

Dailymail


Note: same review gave a rotten 2/5 to TDK as well so we are good

Yeah, it's going to be deja vu where the critics who disliked TDK will come back to dislike TDKR.

Really? You didn't see a single trailer?

Wow, you'll be in for one hell of a ride when you watch this movie lol.

 

[Tookay]

Yeah, there's a surprising lack of restraint with some of them.

I love how the Time one starts busting out new quotes too... I think even the last line from the movie, but I stopped reading.

I mean, I've spoiled a lot... but even I knew when to call it quits.

 

[Jarmel]

Wait Darkman is in this movie? Fucking spoilers!

The Nightman Cometh.

 

[shira]

Is Joker in this one? I love the Joker.

Love that joker

 

[Daft_Cat]

Love that joker

I've always wondered...is this photoshopped?

If not, I think whoever is responsible deserves a medal and a straightjacket to pin it on.

Yes.

 

[planar1280]

[Tookay]

Love that joker

Picture never fails to make me laugh.

Most poorly written review ever?

[Good Job Bob]

Love that joker

[Mariolee]

He should turn himself in!

I think it's the same joker that tried to get Emma Watson to sign her pap kitty shot

Thats a photoshop I think ..

 

[Daft_Cat]

The Dark Man Rising is far two lomg at a bloated 3 hours.

 

[Lonestar]

The Ledger part is photoshopped, but it was photoshopped over a picture of Jack as Joker from Batman89. All done the day after Ledger died.

 

[dmshaposv]

Now I sorta wish WB kept the embargoes up. A couple of reviews outright say the ending in the opening paragraph lol

By whom? So I can stay away from them.

 

[shira]

Well it's the same guy photoshop or irl

 

[Sanjuro]

I remember people were giving Nicholson shit after Ledger passed.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

Yes.

Thats a photoshop I think ..

I choose to believe!

The Ledger part is photoshopped, but it was photoshopped over a picture of Jack as Joker from Batman89. All done the day after Ledger died.

Okay, this'll do. :lol

 

[Solo]

Jack just threw it back in their faces though :lol

Either way the guy is an A+ troll.

 

[Tookay]

Time and Hollywood Reporter are by far the worst in terms of spoilage.

 

[Solo]

Why do we read reviews, DM? So that we can spoil ourselves.

 

[shira]

GAF is our safehouse.

DM thank god- you've got a panic room.

Wait! You can't-
You've got to be kidding me.

 

[Blader]

I remember people were giving Nicholson shit after Ledger passed.

I think that's because he said something like "I warned him!" and people thought he was talking about playing the Joker when it was really about taking Ambien

 

[planar1280]

Some lols


Hollywood and fine reviewer gave men in black 3 and rock of ages a much higher rating than tdkr

Movies.com reviewer who gave tdkr 3/5 gave battleship 4.5/5

Some lols

..and yet we're getting the same movie on Friday regardless of what anyone says, good or bad.

 

[effzee]

I don't get why as a reviewer you would spoil. The secrecy about the plot is well publicized by now, the movie isn't out yet, so why would you spoil? The review's purpose is to convince readers to either go see it or not, not to ruin the plot.

 

[Jokergrin]

spoilers everywhere

we must be mindful of our surroundings

 

[Sanjuro]

Jokers love Ambien.

Are we really going to play that game?

 

[planar1280]

Here is how i see it, giving it a rotten rating to get page views is the lowest of lows, whats the safest option ? Spoil it and get page views, have everyone talk about how you spoiled it

 

[Ithil]

A Dark Man Standing Up is far two lomg at a bloated 3 hours.

Fixed

 

[Deleted member 81567]

Are we really going to play that game?

Yes we are. Some reviewers just like the attention.

Believe it or not, and this goes for trailers too, it is believed that most people want to know what they are getting before they get it. So we get trailers which show the entire movie in broad strokes, and spoiler-laden reviews.

People WANT to know that Alfred assumes the mantle of Batman after Bruce dies of auto-erotic asphyxiation.
