Ok, for real this time -



6 minute prologue. Catch it before it goes.

I have no idea what Bane is saying 90% of the time. Whoop. If that stays and Batman voice hasn't been taken back down to Batman Begins levels it's going to be a one hell of a movie to follow.

Also, new 2 minute trailer -

(Can take a minute to appear.)

Looking like the odds are stacked against old Batman.

I was wondering how Nolan could top the opener to TDK but for me that is damn close, i am so stoked for this film despite the rubbish title.

{CIAguy has one of the hooded goons at gunpoint & hung out the plane window}
CIAguy: Tell me about Bane! Why does he wear the mask!...A lot of loyalty for a hired gun.
Bane (still hooded): Well perhaps he’s wondering why someone would shoot a man before throwing him out of a plane.
CIAguy: At least you can talk. Who are you?
Bane (still hooded): It doesn’t matter who we are, what matters is our plan.
{CIAguy takes mask off}
Bane: No one cared who I was until I put on the mask.
CIAguy: If I pull that off will you die?
Bane: It would be extremely painful…
CIAguy: You’re a big guy.
Bane: …for you.
CIAguy: Was getting caught part of your plan?
Bane: Of course. Dr.Pavel refused our offer in favor of yours…we had to find out what he told you about us.
CIAguy: Well congratulations, you got yourself caught, now whats the next step of your master plan?
Bane: Crashing this plane….with no survivors.
{Bane breaks his cuffs & his squad from the other bigger plane board and take over, they put Pavels blood into a dead body. One of Bane’s goons starts to put on a harness to escape..}
Bane: No. They expect one of us in the wreckage brother.
Goon: Have we started the fire?
Bane: Yah, the fire rises.
{Bane about to escape w/ Dr.Pavel}
Bane: Calm down Doctor, now’s not the time for fear…that comes later.

Thanks


I'm going to need the rest by the time the movie comes out. And a reading light.

Working on it.

The editing at the beginning seems VERY stilted, I'm assuming that was an abbreviated version to get to the action. Other than that: incredible.

[Sheridan Passell]

On a slightly negative note:
- Bane's voice, even when you can hear it, is all over the place.
- Whereas The Dark Knight was very different to Batman Begins, this does open in the exact same way as its predecessor, with - a mastermind criminal stealing something in a cleverly-executed, full of surprises heist the purpose of which isn't clear yet.
- Because it's PG violence, when someone gets shot they literally just give a bit of a wiggle or fall over, I found it difficult to keep track of who was still alive on that plane.

Also keep in mind you're watching a VERY low quality bootleg which is hard to see and hear.  But yeah, it feels like this is really a sequel to Dark Knight rather than the third of a trilogy. I have a feeling the studio added the more cartoony moments to Batman Begins.

[Sheridan Passell]

A big part of me prefers Batman Begins to The Dark Knight. Batman Begins was pretty flawless on a story level whereas the last half an hour of The Dark Knight had a lot of issues. But they were both so different, from the cinematography to the mood, that it made it interesting. I hoped this would be quite unique again, but it totally isn't, the first clue was the title they chose.

[Sheridan Passell]

Also 'criminal mastermind is pretending to be one his own goons' is exactly the same as the previous movie.

[ad4m22]

Damn, it's gone now. Gonna have to watch the trailer on a loop until the film comes out.

[Sheridan Passell]

Not as good quality -
