Movie review thread...

I finally got to see "The Dark Knight Rises" last night (only what, 4 years after the fact?). I didn't have much in the way of expectations, because I seem to remember it receiving a luke-warm reception, and that was after I found "The Dark Knight" to be wildly over-hyped.

And i can see why Batman fans weren't blown away, given Batman is only one of the main characters.

But I thought it was awesome. Bane is a fucking great villain. JGL was really good i thought. I just thought it was a fucking great fun action movie.

Anne Hathaway's ass was positively Trinity-esque in that suit. Seriously, that woman has a fucking smoking body, but there is something wrong with her face.

I thought Bane fucken shat all over the Joker as a villain. A big intimidating guy with a scary ( but easy to imitate voice ), cool looking mask, memorable lines and who gives the Batman an absolute hiding when they first fight vs a scrawny weed with makeup who sticks his tongue out ?

No comparison, of course seeing as Heath Ledger died right after the movie was released people are gonna wank on about him being the best villain in the history of movies cos everyone always talks a person up after they're not here. Please......Neeson was better than him in the first one too......

He's a bit of a midget so I think the camera angles flattered him quite a bit but a great bad guy. Still reckon the first of that series is the best by far overall though.

Had some really bad story issues, which they solved with "He's Baaaatman". How did he get back from the hole with no money? How did he fix his broken back with fucking pressups? What happened to his dicky knee?

People in movies never need money. Hannibal Lecter escaped from jail and went on the run and lived like a king.

As for the rest exercise and painkillers work wonders.

@MN5 I watched all 3 Nolan Batman movies in order again recently.
I would rate them: The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, Batman Begins.

So basically the complete opposite of how I rate them then.....TDK was still a really good flick though. Must do a binge watch, looks pretty rainy this weekend so could be a goer.....

@MN5 haven't you mentioned once or twice you hate super hero films?

[MajorRage]

@MN5 Nah, can't agree with that. Ledgers joker was awesome, thoroughly convincing as a true evil psychopath. He was worthy of the plaudits, and more.

Not hard to be a villian when you are big, intimidating and hiding behind a pretty cool mask.

I rate them Batman Begins, the Dark Knight, then the one with Bane. But then Nolan's superhero films have never resonated with me. I prefer his other movies - Memento, Inception, Interstellar, Insomnia etc.

Bane was shitty, I like Hardy but he was average in this role. I find the Dark Knight to be good only when Ledger was on.

I'm actually looking forward to the Batfleck standalone movie though, he's a good director and his Batman was by far the best thing in Batman v Boredom.

@Nepia Gal Gadot. The preview of the Wonder Woman movie looks interesting.

I really like The Prestige. As to TDKR, Marion Cotillard was underused. No shortage of oscar winners in the trilogy though.

Yeah but my disclaimer clearly covered me for Batman films, not that @Baron-Silas-Greenback seemed to notice. The Hulk could pound Iron Man into a dildo shape and shove him up Thors arse while Captain America Masturbates in front of them for all I care.

@MajorRage just checking, were we watching the same movie in which he minced around in a nurses outfit ?

@Rocky-Rockbottom Google alone was all you needed before starting on that one fella....the first line of the blurb and then that first review...

[jegga]

@Bones did you notice the parallels in his comments about Tom Hardy being masked up as Band and the earlier ones about Willis in his gimp paraphanalia ?
