I just can't see any studio authorizing the death of Bruce Wayne/Batman.

Supposedly...he may be a Jimmy Costigan.

He's a rookie cop called John Blake. That's all we know aside from my reference to Costigan.

Excellent trailer. Looks like Batman and Bane duke it out a few times. Good to see more hand to hand fighting.

Yeah the logo looks really odd on an actual comic book.

The "DC bullet" logo is still best.

In context of the movie, it fits. I always felt the other logo was too "playfull" for TDK.

Didn't realize this is also the new logo for the comics themselves. In that context, I can agree it sucks.

:up:... I'm officially excited now!

I'm refusing to see TDKR trailer until I go see the Avengers. I want to see to see it on the big screen first before I watch it on a crappy computer screen.

Buy a better computer screen, just watched it in 1080p on my 106". ... of course it wasn't 7.1 and my 106" is 720p so I failed.

Re: The Dark Knight Rises (Nolan)
 
Saw it on my Ipad and thought it looked good. Bane is way more understandable, and intimidating I might add. I am curious as to what the movie explanation for Bane having it in for Batman will be , since the one in the comics isn't likely.

Question: wouldn't it be easier for Selina Kyle/Catwoman to fight if she had shorter hair or tied it in a pony tail or bun? I was kind of wondering about a similar situation in Iron Man 2 where Black Widow has her hair tied back until she goes into action, then it's down and flowing. Wouldn't this make fighting harder, since it would likely be falling into their faces? That's why women tend to tie it back or up whenever they work out or go jogging.

OK, you peeps will have to forgive me, I haven't really dived into the spoilers for this thing yet but is that JGL in the Batman suit talking to Catwomen towards the end of this trailer. It doesn't sound like Bale and the chin could be different.

Damn, that trailer was much more serious and somber in tone than I was expecting. Vastly different than most films of this type. Almost plays like a drama ready for awards season. I'm not insanely hyped up over this one, but I'm very curious to see how Nolan wraps this up.

that new trailer was breathtaking!

I was thinking the same thing myself. Curious...

A certain winner, and Christopher Nolan knows that full well. I don't expect any slacking in the line of acting, top actors have been hand picked, and the action is certified A grade.

ALso, the camo batmobiles are used by Bane, right?

@1:27? Possibly.

That's what it looks like.

^ Just something cool for a preview I would imagine.

In terms of story, I am thinking we will be getting a somewhat altered version of Knightfall the way TDK was a variation on Killing Joke.

Looks like Bale's chin to me.

Sounds like Bale too. Just seems he's toned down the growl altogether and sounds like a middle ground between how he spoke to Rachel in the Batcave in BB and his typical growl.

The only shot I know of that might not be him is
Spoiler:
that shot at 01:35. That was rumoured to be the final shot of the movie after Bruce Wayne is buried in the Wayne Manor cemetary.

Supposedly that's JGL at the end but we never see for sure cos the scene cuts to black as he's about to face the camera. At least that was one of the JGL rumours.

The other JGL rumour was that he gets shot in the head towards the tail end of the movie, hence Solid Snake PAC's earlier comment about him.

Amazing.

I'm really curious to see what Gordon-Levitt's role in this will be. Also, how the time-line is going to run. Does the movie start immediately 8 years in the future or what? I know that no one here really knows those answers but my mind is going wild after watching that trailer 3 times in a row.

Tom Creo 05-01-12 12:00 PM

Re: The Dark Knight Rises (Nolan)
 
Finally get to see some Catwoman ass-kicking footage. Heels looked fine. lol

We've never seen Bale as Batman not talk with a growl in BB or TDK did we? WOuld like to compare if he did.

Where are you getting that from? I, without thinking, clicked on that and only read the first line and I regret it. :(
