The Dark Knight Rises trailer

meh not a very interesting trailer still I will see the film

[featofstrength]

The cgi football field looks bad, Bane is too hard to understand to be scary, and Hathaway is a cold fish...

 

but, it is only a trailer...a trailer that doesnt have the same spark as TDK.

[jahue]

I have a feeling that joseph-gordon levitt is going to steal the show in this one like Heath did in TDK

"When Gotham is in ashes, you'll have my permission to die."

 

Sounded pretty clear to me. July can't get here fast enough.

Sounded clear to me too! Damn, I can't wait!! I gotta stop watching that trailer.

[TOTAL_CONTROL]

This July.....I shall kneel at the IMAX alter......I shall surender, TOTAL CONTROL.....

 

& I shall......WORSHIP THE KNIGHT.

I'm excited for the movie but the trailer didn't really do anything for me.

[rash]

It's WAAAAAY early, but I was very underwhelmed.

 

In all honesty, the football scene looked stupid.

 

Christian Bale looks scrawny, as if he hadn't yet recovered from filming "The Fighter."

 

Bane, as has been discussed before, looks moronic. Bane is supposed to be huge; this guy is big, but not that big.

 

The fight scene in front of City Hall looks phony.

 

And Anne Hathaway...uggh.

 

Again...it's early. But the 3rd movie is often the bad one.

His mask is more Mortal Kombat Cosplay than Bane, in Wrong TurnEliza Dushku spoke clearer than this guy... with a belt in her mouth, and on the whole the actor is more painful to watch than Mickey Rourke in IM2, but I must admit, that Andy Travis '70's lambskin coat really cements Bane's look. I just hope the boys at DC are paying attention.

 

It's hilarious that people continue to harp on Bane's look (rightfully so in some instances) but say absolutely nothing about the fact that (from the looks of the trailer) he's kicked Batman's ass six ways to Sunday and just about taken over Gotham... exactly what Bane did in the comics 20 years ago.

 

I just hope the boys at DC are paying attention... and give Nolan a medal for hitting Bane's character to a T.

[Indian]

I guess if anyone can take a lame 90's, sales-boosting gimmick like Bane and make him acceptable to a modern audience, a medal is in order.

I wonder if the Catwoman in this movie is, more or less, taking the place of Batgirl?

This info is apparently from the TDKR Facebook community. Somebody named Bilal Bhatti spilled these beans:

 

"Here are the Wally UPCs for the TDKR Movie Master figures

Can someone validate, and/or authenticate?

[CLAM]

Well, Batman Begins was pretty good, just a little slow.. and I loved the Dark Knight... so I have faith that this will be a pretty good movie, if not great.

 

The trailer is decent. Bane sucks, but the story is intriguing

[Rollo Tomassi]

Notice how they refer to him as 'GCPD Blake' and not just Blake? That's so they can differentiate him from 'Batman Blake'.

Looking forward to that movie master line, as much as I dislike Mattel. MM figures get props for life-like proportions and different body sculpts (rare features in the DCUC line).

 

From the trailer, looks like this will not be your swinging-through-the-city-fighting-crime Batman movie, and that's OK. We've had them before and we will have them again. I'm more interested in getting a satisfying conclusion to this trilogy than a "classic" Batman story. I won't call the trailer mind blowing, but it is interesting and I can't wait to see the movie!

according to this he's scrawny because of him not being neede for a number of years(8 to be specific) so he's older and a bit out of shape http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=32527

[featofstrength]

again...8 years pass and no real "freaks" in Gotham since Joker and Two-Face?

[yojoebro82]

If this is true, maybe that just speaks to the whole "Batman attracts freaks" angle of the story. Batman disappears, so do the freaks.

 

Stop hatin'

apparently the freaks left with Batman

I've always thought a story that incorporated elements of Knightfall, No Man's Land, and The Dark Knight Returns would work better without them anyway...

 

Where are they keeping the Joker during all of this anyway?

[MatchesxMalone]

After seeing that I just went from six to midnight.....lmao....

Jail he's gotta have a life sentence for all the stuff he did in the last film
