Hines Wardscoring that tdreturning a kick for a td, explosion or not= biggest stretch ever
More of a Robin really, I guess he does represent almost all Robins being an orphan and all. He was more **** Grayson I guess since **** did become Batman for a little while in the comics and is the only Robin to wear the cowl.
But he says his real name is Robin at the end.....
You guys think this is the last one? Movie was great, but is this suppose to be the last of the "trilogy " or the last batman Nolan is doing?
I still want to see Johnny Depp as The Riddler on some Saw type swag
I see him doing another one in the future. I hope it's The Riddler and Penguin or Freeze.
Maybe my memory is failing me, but I recall someone saying the bomb goes off in two days, and at that point Bruce was still in the prison...Sooooo are we just going to overlook the fact that Wayne did NOT get to GC overnight?
The bomb was set up to blow in 5 months. Isn't it feasible that he found a way there or had at least been plotting it since he's been locked up. Remember, the bomb is the only thing that has time tied to it so it's all ambiguous. It never crossed my mind that Wayne got there overnight, simply because it's not that big of a deal.
I'm going to have to agree on all the points made here. I really REALLY respect what Nolan has done as a director and a writer but these items are flaws. That's not to discount that this is still a GREAT film. It is just not "The best 160 minutes I've spent in a theater" as others are touting it to be. I put Inception ahead of this film in Nolan's catalog.
Things of note are like how quickly he got back, the passage of time throughout the film, the overlooking of his initial injury(s) at the start of the film, and the USB drive with the "Clean Slate" that just got given away. They all just felt way too convenient and rushed. The biggest downfall of this film is that it has too many "moving parts". Like I said, this is still an amazing film and I adore the ending for actually being a satisfying culmination.
I'm watching it again in legit IMAX tonight so I'll ponder this a bit more.
Excuse me if I'm wrong, but before they cut to the prison scene they had like 5 days before the explosion, then right before they showed batman's return he only had a couple hours till the explosion. Lastly, Tate's death was god awful. I had to chuckle at that scene
I get your point about how the city changes but the way I see it is
Bat beg- city looks dirty and dark because of all the crime until bat cleans up the city
Tdk- city looks cleaner because of bat and remember how in the movie all the mob bosses were scared cuz of batman and also Harvey dent was getting the criminals
Tdkr- bat put in work from the past and cuz chief Gordon
So as the crime slowly lessens the city slowly improves. I think that's why the city changes
I just think it changes because they got a bigger budget for the movie to be honest...
I don't think so. Batman Begins and TDK were still mostly filmed in Chicago iirc. The budget different between the two films are also just $35mil, it wasn't a big bump like from $50mil to $200mil. BBs budget is $150mil and TDK at $185mil. TDK did have to be filmed internationally for that Hong Kong scene, the same with TDKR in the foreign pit scene and that is probably where the bulk of that extra budget goes. I am kind of murky where else the first two films were filmed outside of Chicago but TDKR was all over the place, they had a scene in NY, LA, Pittsburgh, some Chicago scenes as well I think and the India scenes and Italy or France (not 100% sure with this one) so the budget is probably in the $200mil for the last part of the trilogy.
I remember reading somewhere that they did not have much of a budget for Begins and no one was really expecting anything of it because of the debacles with the last Batman series. But they had such a good response with Begins which in turn gave them a bigger budget for TDK.
