The Dark Knight Rises

[skydivingninja]

Ah, I see Nolan's going the whole Joss Whedon route with his hiring practices.  Not that there's anything wrong with that at all.

[pogoowner]

Meh. I've never really cared for Cotillard.

[fadetoblackdude7]

The newspaper said she's pregnant like 2 months ago, it's gotta be false.

And yes, she is a babe.

[ThroughHerEyesDude6]

Meh. I've never really cared for Cotillard.

Good more for me. She is a babe!

[Dimitrius]

Nolan has always done that.

[Xanthul]

A lot of directors do that, like Paul Thomas Anderson with Phillip Seymour Hoffman and company.

[CountVoorhees]

I'm not sure if this is old news or not but I'm gonna post it anyway because... well, it's awesome.

[DarkLord_Lalinc]

I hadn't seen that before. It's excellent.

[axeman90210]

I hadn't seen that before. They're excellent.

[MetalJunkie]

It's also fake.

[CountVoorhees]

Ok, that explains why it wasn't on SuperHeroHype among other sites.

[hefdaddy42]

Yeah, that's a shoop.

[Lynxo]

Yeah, that's a shoop.

You can tell from the pixels?

[Zook]

And he's shooped a few woops in his day.

[hefdaddy42]

Yeah, that's a shoop.

You can tell from the pixels?

Didn't really look that closely, I had just seen the original.

[skydivingninja]

It also just doesn't look very real.

[TimmyHiggy]

I was too distracted to notice the shooped on head

Get your skepticism ready:

Chris Nolan has been keeping security around his third Batman movie pretty airtight over the past few months.

But he may have overlooked a breach somewhere, as one online source is claiming that it’s gotten its hands on the (very basic-sounding) plot for The Dark Knight Rises.

Batman-On-Film report that the threequel's plot follows Batman’s fight against the League of Shadows, the vigilante organisation spearheaded by Talia al Ghul, who has Bane (Tom Hardy) as her love interest protector.

According to BOF, Joseph Gordon-Levitt will play a member of the League, while Catwoman (Anne Hathaway) will join forces with Batman to fight the organisation at the film's close.

BOF have given no source for their information, with a basic “we know because we just do” post on their Facebook page.

Despite our reservations about these things, the plot does sound pretty legit – especially when you consider the League originally showed up in Batman Begins, which would give Rises a very trilogy-esque dove-tail closer.

I don't buy it.  That plot implies four main villains, which is too many characters.

Regarding the Maggie Gyylllenhaaaalll remarks:



Sure, she might look like the sad cartoon turtle, but there is something strangely "girl-next-door" cute about her, IMO.  Depends on the pic.  She's like Fergie or Hilary Swank.  Some pics she looks decent, some she looks really bad.

Anyway, even discounting her sometimes on/sometimes off looks, she has an undeniably excellent set of cans.

[zerogravityfat]

how do you gather 4 villians? the Talia as the main villian, Bane as her bodyguard. Gordon Levitt is just a henchman.

But Catwoman needs to be in there too.

[Pirate]

Isn't Catwoman an anti-hero?

[emindead]

I don't know, this is a guy who introduced a second major villain in the last quarter of the movie and made it work.

When?

[bosk1]

Yeah, it's totally doable.  Tahlia/Bane/TLOS are one story arc.  Selina would be the other.  And then the two come together at the end.

The hospital scene.

I think ariich's implying Two-Face "didn't work" in TDK.

[bosk1]

I don't think that's what ariich is saying at all.  I think he's just baffled by emin saying Two-Face was introduced in the last quarter of the movie.  He wasn't.  One of the major story arcs thoughout the entire film was his stransformation into 2F.  The fact that the transformation didn't happen until the end doesn't somehow equate to him appearing out of nowhere.  Significant time was spent from the very beginning developing the story that would enable his transformation.

This. The character is Harvey Dent, who is in the whole film. Just because his character development leads to him becoming Two Face at the end doesn't mean the villain just came out of nowhere.

But yeah, as bosky said, it's doable on the assumption that the League of Shadows is all treated as one story arc rather than going into much detail of the different characters. Nolan did two major, separate villains very well in the first two films, but more than that might get a bit cluttered.

Anyway, it's only a rumour, not confirmed to be true, so let's just wait and see.

I'll come right out and say that it didn't work. But I'm in the minority.

[fadetoblackdude7]

Joseph Gordon-Levitt is confirmed to play Alberto Falcone, son of Carmine Falcone..........goddammit, my excitement is building soooooo much for this film!!!!!

No, I totally agree. In fact, the Dark Knight pretty much collapses under itself half-way through. But I'm definitely in the minority here.

[The Degenerate]

It's also fake.

Oh snap!  So now Holiday is kind of a possibility, except Two-Face is dead, so it wouldn't be a complete retelling of The Long Halloween.
