Anyone else notice the bat shadow over Bane's eyes and the bridge of the nose? Lol, I swear, it's like it's a challenge to slip in as many subtle bat symbols into posters as is possible.

That should have been one of the original posters. Seeing that plastered all around NYC would have been 100% better than the poster with the old pose from TDK that they are using.
 
28, but not doing midnight. Going to try and get into one of those food serving theaters in the day time. I would do midnight if my friends didn't wanna go to the special theaters and I'd dress up with my Bane stuff.

Nobody in this thread wants to know what the ending is like, however vague you describe it, so stop posting shit like that

Yep. Already ruined a lot of situations. The other thread has active users so discuss with those that have seen it already.

All of this. Seriously, dude is determined to get attention for ruining the movie for people. He's posting in THIS thread about posts HE made in the OTHER thread. Pack it in, already.
 
This sounds silly, but I really didn't want to know that the ending was good. I'd rather be surprised by a shit ending (or a good one) than go in knowing how to feel! Let me feel on my own!
 
A poster IMDB saw it. I know, I know, but I'm inclined to believe this one. Don't worry, there aren't any spoilers.

These are just impressions, the guy just comments on the acting, visuals, and the characters. They aren't spoilers, but I'll just put them in spoiler text anyway.
I signed a waiver so I don't want to give up anything except it is incredible and is probably best enjoyed in IMAX form. The Avengers was fast food. This is filet mignon and will most likely generate incredible word of mouth. It's a head scratcher why they aren't getting the reviews going on this film sooner than later. The ending was pretty emotional. Honestly, the word that there are bad reviews out there are, in my opinion, totally bogus because the film obeys all the logic within the world it creates for itself. I found the first two films and Inception were on the overly long side, but this installment uses every moment wisely without any lagging moments that don't contribute to the overall pacing. The acting is superb and Gary Oldman really, really needs to get an Oscar. He deserves it here. The action is spectacular and not recycled. CGI is used sparingly and the real satisfaction you get by the end is from raw emotion due to the writing and performances but I've already said too much. The cinematography is excellent as always however you're not going to see cookie cutter CGI enhanced cliches. You will see things you haven't seen countless times before and that is what's so refreshing about this film. (About Anne's acting): Sexy as hell. I never really paid attention to her as an actress in the past but I will now. Michelle Pfeiffer be damned! The music was fine. I've never really paid attention to the soundtracks of the first two films to be honest. Nolan's brilliance is that he doesn't let CGI or booming music or ANYTHING take centre stage over the story and characterizations. I can't give any further details on this film other than it is a helluva movie! A perfect masterpiece. It would be something to see the third entry in a trilogy win Best Picture. I hated Bane as much as I hated Clarence Boddiker in Robocop!

That last part sealed it for me.

LOL yep. I rather see what the trailers show and come to my own conclusion than someone explaining. I don't want to know which scene has no music queue and which scene has a great direction. I want to think for my own without thinking "Here it comes! This is the scene GAF said will have great direction."

EDIT: Ezekial, you're not helping too... -_-

Bailing out (and will be back as always. UGH!)
 
Reaction from an LA Junkett screening

"But the word disappointment certainly won’t be featuring when my full review is cleared for posting next Tuesday. Consider the embargo respected (I’m such a good girl) and hang fire for July 19 when the film opens in NZ. It might pay to bear in mind that Nolan’s love of the IMAX camera crossed new frontiers this time around, and he shot an entire half the film using them. Aucklanders, I urge you to see The Dark Knight Rises at IMAX if you can."

How old are you guys?

I'm 25+, also getting "I'm too old for this shit" vibes but I'm there on the 19th at midnight ..

I'm not doing midnight. I'm more of a early evening movie watcher. I'll fall asleep in the theater if I go that late.

(I'm 29)
 
29. Totally doing midnight. Even got my gf to go along. Were she not coming on vacation with me, I would do all three IMAX films in a row on Thursday night. A bit disappointed she's not a movie buff like that and wouldn't be able to pull it off, but that's okay. Don't want to spend too much vacation time watching old films when I can enjoy the lake.
 
Just found out I get to see TDKR in a private showing on 7/19 at 3 PM! So excited!!!!! Will be going to see TDK at 8 PM at another theatre on 7/19! Also have IMAX tickets for 7/20 at 11 AM!

Snap out of it, we all know Nolan's Batman has a different tone from the other super-hero movies. That was even criticized when The Avengers came out.

I'm 20 btw.
 
22....Midnight at the IMAX.

I've only done midnights for a couple movies in the past though, so this should be kind of special. I went to DH2 midnights just cause I figured what the hell it might be fun, and then the sound went out for like 5 minutes and the whole audience was outraged.

there is a firefox script to hide all youtube comments.

Seriously planar, don't do this ever again. We don't want to know how good or bad the fucking ending is.
