I'm glad the Riddler won't be in it.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.

Even if it makes sense in context, that's a really shitty title.

Yeah but who cares about Transbayers 3? This is Chris Nolan's third Batman movie. He already had The Dark Knight as the last title. The Dark Knight Rises is very uncreative and unoriginal.

Totally this movie is clearly going to suck. There is no hope, I won't be seeing it. I'm boycotting the movie. I'm burning all batman related things, along with all of nolans other works, and christian bales, and michael caines, and gary oldman. Hell I'm just going to destroy the entire british empire.

Zook, how were "Batman Begins" or "The Dark Knight" remotely creative and original?

The titles fits with the rest of the trilogy. I like it.

I would have preferred 'Batman ________' as it finishes off the trilogy.

Batman Descends was my personal choice.

Ah well. Doesnt really matter when you think about it. The whole Batman franchise is massively overrated anyway. I much prefer Nolan's other work.

Ariich, it's uncreative because The Dark Knight is used twice now. It just seems more redundant than having Batman as the title for a bunch of movies. Besides, with 2 movies in, he has risen up already.

I just hope the 3rd one ends up being as good as Batman Begins. The Dark Knight received all the attention and had various parts that were better than Batman Begins, but it was a bit of a letdown as a whole.

"The Dark Knight" was used in the comics, so that wasn't creative. "Batman Begins" is hardly creative for a film about Batman's beginnings.

Just seems like an odd complaint to make for the 3rd film but not the others.

I would've liked "Batman Crusader" as the title. I just think it's a badass title and it would've finished it off nicely.

And I am highly disappointed that The Riddler got the boot  :facepalm: .....he's my favorite villain and I was looking forward to seeing how he would've been portrayed by Nolan.

Really? I prefer "Gotham" or something slightly less descriptive of the plot whilst still conveying it subtlety.

I heard they originally wanted to just call the movie "RRRRRAAAAA" but that Mike Portnoy threatened to sue them.

It's fucking expensive. Seriously, ticket prices are high enough without having to pay an extra 4 bucks to see it in 3D
So you can't skip ONE coffee (out of 4 per day) or some cigarettes ONCE a month to go see a 3D movie?

I think 3D is great but where it goes wrong is in the hands of the filmmakers who try and make 3D THE REASON to see the movie and not the actual movie itself.  Just put in a bunch of things flying in your face and forget everything else.  I'd love to see a story-driven movie in 3D, like Seven, to see how that kind of movie would fair... see if it boosts the atmosphere at all.

A serious movie would be horrible in 3D but if you want we do have a dedicated 3D thread a few pages back.

I agree.

I've always considered Batman Begins the better film.

TDK was good but I think the obsession over the Joker is what made it so popular. I also didn't like how they rushed the Two-Face storyline. I would have introduced Harvey Dent in TKD, and used him as Two-Face in the final film. I always found that to be a mistake by Nolan, yet not many people seem to pick up on it.

The whole phone-bugging thing was a letdown as well. I expected more of a climax with the Joker than what we got.

Still, it's a solid enough film. But Begins is better in almost ever way, IMO.

The only issue I had with TDK was the phone bugging/sonar thing. Just seemed........worthless. I like the moral choice it gave Bruce and Lucious, but they could have done that in a much better way.

I was fine with the Two Face thing. The joker, in that movie, turned him into two face, it was a little rushed though, I would have liked it had the movie been another hour longer. But not drawn into two different movies.

The title is definitely interesting.  May or may not be great based on the movie more than anything.  Shawshank Redemption is kinda iffy as a title, but it's perfect once you see the movie.

Lack of Riddler is disappointing but also interesting.  Now we get to see Nolan take a previous Batman villain and make him/her more serious - like Scarecrow and Ra's.

So happy Nolan's not doing this in 3D for so many reasons.  This isn't a theme park ride, it's real cinema.

The Dark Knight Rises sounds like a movie about mummies or Batman waking up for school. It does suck. as does The Dark Knight, not as a title but as a movie... okay, leaving now
