I don't know how people can do the trilogy marathon in IMAX. Nearly 8 hours of sitting in a cinema seat, watching an enormous IMAX screen. I'd be exhausted by the time TDKR finally comes on.

I am going to fuck myself up the night before the night of the marathon.

Wake up at 10PM and go to the marathon @ 00:00.

I am doing this because its a 1 time chance here in Holland. It is going to be easy.
 
I'm just gonna rewatch the first two at home.

Begins on Wednesday, TDK on Thursday, then heading to the theater to watch Rises on Friday.
 
I don't know how people can do GAF at home. Nearly 8 hours of sitting in a desk chair, watching a dual monitor setup. I'd be exhausted by the time I finally cum to Sunhi's gifs.

Batman Begins was in development hell?

Batman Begins was completed pretty smoothly, but Batman and Robin polluted the franchise completely.

Wikipedia or something said:
During the filming of Batman & Robin, Warner Bros. was impressed with the dailies, prompting them to immediately hire Joel Schumacher to return as director for a sequel. However, writer Akiva Goldsman, who worked on Batman Forever and Batman & Robin with Schumacher, turned down the chance to write the script. In late 1996, Warner Bros. and Schumacher hired Mark Protosevich to write the script for a fifth Batman film. A projected mid-1999 release date was announced. Titled Batman Triumphant, Protosevich's script had the Scarecrow as the main villain. Through the use of his fear toxin, he resurrects the Joker as a hallucination in Batman's mind. Harley Quinn appeared as a supporting character, written as the Joker's daughter. George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell were set to reprise the roles of Batman and Robin. After Batman & Robin did poorly at the box office, George Clooney vowed never to wear the cape and cowl again.

Following the failure of Batman & Robin, however, Warner Bros. was unsure of their plans for Batman Triumphant. The studio decided it was best to consider a live-action Batman Beyond film and an adaptation of Frank Miller's Batman: Year One. Warner would then produce whichever idea suited them the most. Schumacher felt he "owe[d] the Batman culture a real Batman movie. I would go back to the basics and make a dark portrayal of the Dark Knight." He approached Warner Bros. about doing Batman: Year One in mid-1998, but they were more interested in hiring Darren Aronofsky. Aronofsky and Frank Miller developed a Year One script with Aronofsky to direct, but it was ultimately canceled. Christopher Nolan was eventually hired to helm the next Batman film in January 2003, resulting in the rebooted Batman Begins (2005).

The Dark Knight Rises was the masterpiece of all comic films, the best was saved for last... Oscar for Best Picture and Bane as Tom Hardy
 
Booking IMAX tickets with my brother later. The only way we're getting centred VIP seats is if we go at 9:30am on the Tuesday after it comes out, which I'm fine with. He's working a late shift and I've got a voucher for a full chicken at Nandos for when we emerge, completed, from the screen.

Yes, but he's said since then that he feels a film should speak for itself. He hasn't done any since Insomnia I believe.

Aww. That's a shame. I always figured that the only reason BB, Inception, and TDK didn't have them was because the studio wanted to double dip later or something.

I understand the reasoning behind it I suppose, but I just love that sort of thing and really wanted to hear some from him.

Guess I'll just stick with my current blu-rays.
 
I'd pay actual money, like, the sort I work for, to get a second David Fincher commentary for all his movies. I could listen to that man talk for hours~

Haha. Anyone else feel the tiniest bit of tension here when the journalist asks Bale what his biggest "fall" has been since he started filming these movies?
Click to expand...
I didn't read it as tension I just think that interviewer tries really hard to base his questions on the thematic elements of the film. Sometimes it seems a little contrived and odd and maybe Bale was noticing the same thing.

his questions involved too hefty a short-term memory load for people going through a million interviews prior to his. Classic mistake.
 
Looking for a good IMAX screen to see the movie on. Is there a resource that tells you exactly what kind of screen a theater has? I don't want to commit myself to a dinky pseudo IMAX showing.

Check here.

You're looking for anything with a "15/70", which designates theaters using an IMAX film projector.

I still remember the constant discussions about what they were going to do with the franchise, it ranged from:

Batman Year One: Aronofsky, screen-tested Affleck, Wes Bently, Josh Hartnet, got pretty far long.

Through to

Dark Knight Returns: Clint was approached, along with Tom Selleck I heard...

Then there was just another Batman film but with a new cast, I think Kurt Russell was front runner at that time.
 
For two and a half hours, I was completely taken into another world. I experienced that larger than life sensation of watching a perfectly constructed story play out, it really was a palpable feeling. After watching the film, I had a renewed sense of childlike wonder. It felt like I saw “Batman” again for the very first time.

As we left the screening room, and parted ways with the PR people, The intuitive Mr. Connelly let me have it. “Ok, now you can let it out” he said. I screamed, like an excited school girl.
