Damn it rt posted phillips 2.5/4 review as negative! It was a mixed positive review, 2.5 counts as 63% which is above 60 threshhold which rt uses wtf

Is there a longer version around where we can see why Bale cried? of course it was because of the movie montage with Ledger in it but i'd love to see this.

I look for like 30 minutes that's the best I found sorry. the link I posted before has a 2 mintue vid, but it may not work for you.
 
Yeah, I've been cutting down my appearances. Glad I missed any nonsense.

I've been having some major sharp shoulder pain for weeks now, its been much worse the last few days. Ended up watching Moonrise Kingdom in excruciating pain last night. I hope to god that I have some relief come tomorrow.

I fractured vertebrae and tore ligaments in my back last week, and diazepam works a dream. Get that. If you can't get your doctor to give you it, buy it in a back alley, or off Solid Snake.
 
Phillips review without spoilers, its labelling it as decent to good not as good as tdk in some moments, i dont know how you label it as negative

Now comes “The Dark Knight Rises,” which makes “The Dark Knight” look like “Dora the Explorer” and is more of a 164-minute anxiety disorder than a movie.

Nolan’s third in the planned trilogy will likely satisfy many who fell headlong into the previous two. The new film works on your nervous system the way composer Hans Zimmer’s kettle drums of doom keeps tightening the screws, long after the screws are tight. There are many things to admire in “The Dark Knight Rises,” and Nolan’s bombast is a far, far higher grade than you’d find in a “Transformers” movie. But nothing in the new film, which turns Gotham over to the masked terrorist Bane, played by an occasionally intelligible Tom Hardy, meets or exceeds the crises of “The Dark Knight,” especially that picture’s ferry-boat sequence, where Gotham’s residents found themselves in a no-win situation and somehow won anyway.

The Dark Knight Rises” is not dull, or even overlong, despite its running time

What worked beautifully in “The Dark Knight” seems overworked and almost ridiculously grim in “The Dark Knight Rises.” Also, I doubt the IMAX Theatre on Navy Pier is presenting the film in premium conditions; quite apart from the sound-design controversy involving Hardy’s plummy vocal inflections getting lost in the digital mix as Bane, the acoustic balance between the dialogue and composer Zimmer’s shut-up-already musical score cannot possibly be what Nolan and his collaborators intended, at least as heard on Navy Pier.

Not that anyone’s actually listening. Like its predecessor, this one has only one thing on its mind. It means to string the audience along, while stringing it out, on a bloody masquerade performed by masked pretenders.
 
Time to accept it, it's sticking around an 85-87%.

I honestly stopped bothering, rt is so arbitrary.

the phillips review is 2.5/4 and it's rotten for tdkr, but he gave the same score to the katy perry film and that's a fresh.

I don't even understand what gets taken into account to certify a review fresh or rotten.

I thought I read that it's the reviewer who tells RT whether the review is fresh or rotten, even if there is a score.
 
Like I said, Bale was obnoxious to me. I really couldn't take any more of it. Just not my thing I guess.

will I think that was the character he was playing... wasn't he really skinny in that movie too. I know what you're talking about I seen one of two trailers, and I see it too, but that was just his character. You much have hated Harsh Times too lol

If you watch the end credits of the Fighter where you see the real life character he played, you'll realize he was spot on.

Hahaha that Dora the Explorer/TDK comparison rocks so hard.
