We still went apeshit when Twilight Princess got an 8.8 from Gamespot or whatever.

So good.
 
You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation, they turned to a site they didn't fully understand.
 
Wish people didn't make death threats over movie reviews.

Wish people didn't lump all of the people making death threats in with the rest of the fans.

Some sites aren't looking for anything logical, they can't be bought, negotiated, or reasoned with. Some review aggregates just want to watch the world burn.

deal with it

This is why I hate RT. I used to be into it, but now people take it way too damn seriously. Same thing happened when GameRankings changed game reviews forever.
 
Dark comic books have always been around, but with a difference; as pictures and words on paper, they've allowed readers to choose their own degree of involvement. "The Dark Knight Rises" allows no choice; it's immersive and assaultive to a degree that could only have been achieved by the conjunction of a quintessentially somber comic and a filmmaker with a complementary sensibility, marshaling the vast technical and financial resources of an entertainment conglomerate. During the Great Depression, moviegoers flocked to escapist films with glittering dancers, happy endings and upbeat songs like "Happy Days Are Here Again." For whatever this movie may say about today's world, it rises to a different occasion and dances to a different tune. Happy days are done and gone.

JOE MORGENSTERN gave it positive, he gave TDK a negative review


We have a FLIP!

Thus negating the AP flip

he is also a top critic

review has spoilers
 
I seriously don't get the obsession over reviews aggregate websites like metacritic or rt.

Because if "they" don't agree with me... then who will. But yea seriously I don't get it. Especially when all the reviews read exactly the same and we can't even read them in fear of spoilers. Seems like waste of Batgafs time and resources. We should be making hilarious gifs.
 
NY critics giving this film positive reviews would be a twist even M. Night would be proud of.

Can't wait for those reviews to show up.

It's pretty sad.

I just like the reactions to negative reviews in very anticipated movies, they are hilarious in rt and in gaf too.
 
I think I'm more interest in Bale now than anything else. Most of the reviews I've read say he goes in deep in this one, Begins-esque. Glad he's possibly leaving the series on a high note after taking a backseat in TDK for Dent.
 
Havent read a single review but can anyone confirm any praise for bane?

Seems like he's only been critisized and seems the weaker link of the film.

I've seen some stuff that says he's a good villain and you'll love to hate him, but overall it looks like he's overshadowed by a lot of other things going on in the movie.

Looks like this is pretty much Bale's movie, if anything.

I'm too lazy to pull up review quotes but I've heard great things. That he's just as significant, but very different from the joker, that Tom Hardy is unrecognizable, that he's a tragic villain, etc.

He's getting heaps of praise. Just slightly offset with a few saying he's not as good as Ledger..because that's what needs to happen!

Tragic villain? Well that certainly hasn't come across in any of the trailers, info, or anything on the film so far. From everything I've seem Bane seems like a straight up asshole villain (like the Joker), unlike someone like Two-Face.
 
Holy shit at marshall fine getting death threats on his negative review

The posters are like dogs chasing cars. They wouldn't know what to do if they actually got a response.

EDIT: Someone needs to bane mask Starfox below. And my Byers/Frohike and Langly.
