best movie of the year easily

the only movie i'm as compelled to see as much as i was for batman is moonrise kingdom

[claaa7]

saw this at the cinema yesterday and DAMN, Christopher Nolan finally did it!! The perfect Batman trilogy.. i absolutely loved every second of it pretty much. it's kinda hard to say whether i prefer this or "The Dark Knight", but i think both are slightly better than "Begins" although that is a great flick as well.

overall "The Dark Knight" had the best villains, the performance of Heath Ledger as The Joker was of course unforgettable but i think bc of his tragic death it also overshadowed the extremely powerful performance by Aaron Eckhart as Havery "Two Face" Dent.

the main actors has all done a fantastic job in all flicks though. Christian Bale is one of the best actors of our time in my opinion; Gary Oldman is even better (imagine that Commisioner Gordon is the same guy that portrayed that wigger pimp in "True Romance", Sirius Black in the "Harry Potter" series and Dracula in "Bram Stokers..."); Morgan Freedom really nailed his character; Michael Cain as Alfred was also terrific in all the films.

now i love Tim Burton's surrealistic vision of Gotham City and the Batman characters were everybody had deep psychological problems (a billionaire dressing up as a bat to go out and fight crime come night; come on, he got to have some mental problems haha), and if Burton had been allowed to make the third flick that he had planned (whcih would have been even darker than "Batman Returns"), then it would have been incredibly interesting to compare Nolan's with Burton's trilogy.

as it is now though, i'd say that Cristopher Nolan has made the best trilogy in film, with the only exception possibly being "The Godfather". i'm not a big fan of "Star Wars", "Lord Of The Rings", "The Matrix" (except #1), etc.

SPOILER AHEAD















i hate the character of Robin but the way they introduced the character was perfect. no silly costume, no chosing of the mighty silly Robin name (why would a guy named Dick Grayson choose Robin as his super hero name LOL). and also i loved how Batman didn't adopt him in the literal manner in this one, check "Batman Forever" for example - LOL @ Batman adopting a 25 year old "boy". in the comics Robin is originally very young..

All of the actors did their job through the entire trilogy.

To me these are the best performance of each movie:
Batman Begins - Cillian Murphy, Christian Bale and Liam Neeson
The Dark Knight - Heath Ladger, Aaron Eckhart
Dark Knight Rises - Michael Cain > Im calling it now this guy deserves an Oscar for his display of acting skills on this movie. The scene at the cemetery was amazing.

Of course Oldman was very consistent on all films. What I don't like is some people acting as if Bale didn't do a great job as Bruce/Batman just because he was outshine by the villains. He was outshine indeed, but that doesn't change the fact that he did his job.


Spoiler...


I didn't think of Blake as Robin. Through the film, I always thought of him as the next Batman. Only when they mentioned that his name was Robin, I thought of him as Nightwing, because the persona of Nightwing isn't a sidekick like Robin is.

lol at u people talking about the nolan and burton movies. they sucked complete ass. ur 4getting about the real classics.





the best parts of the true classics r ofc the batmobiles

[main_man]

finally got a chance to peep this.


dope flick. great trilogy.


you could have called this movie the dark knight gets the shit kicked out of him for 2 and a half hours. but i dont think that title would have marketed well.


just a whole lotta batman mythos put into a pot and stirred up. 100% nolan though.

thats the coolest thing about batman, you can give that character to many different writers and get so many different kinds of stories.


this movie was way more adult than i thought it was going to be.

and thats the best live action catwoman on screen so far. honey dip was the best character by far.

[JASPER BEARDLY]

shit was real gritty and thats the best part about it

u dont see dudes getting their throats ripped in avengers

[DR. NICK RIVIERA]

GOD ALMIGHTY how many patriotism and plot holes can one fit in a GREAT MOVIE

there is a lot of things I love in this movie, I'd like more movies like this in the cinema, but Nolan isn't Kubrick or old Ridley Scott

the ending is a bit lame, the fight between policemen and those Bane dudes was EXTRA lame, lol, they were shooting at eachother for 10 seconds without being in cover, and then they fight fist to fist. REALLY, Nolan? Really? You are making an action thriler, and the thriler part of the movie is great, the action is a lot worse than Dark Knight's [remember the big truck scene?]

Nolan is a weird guy. He has balls to try and make a dark, serious blockbuster, but on the other hand, some things are made purely for the reason of appeasing to the average american. I never bought the Talia plottwist, that was just thrown in there for the fuck of it. So Bane is just her puppy who doesn't even want a revolution, but just revenge. Sounds a bit like American foreign policy, haha

WOW, saw it in IMAX yesterday - overwhelming experience.
Bout to see it 2, 3 more times.
It's everything i hoped it would be, great way to end the series.
Can't wait 4 the home release.
If you can, see it in

"the fight between policemen and those Bane dudes was EXTRA lame, lol, they were shooting at eachother for 10 seconds without being in cover, and then they fight fist to fist. REALLY, Nolan? Really?"

Mind you this was PG13 still, by going all out for a R rating he would of alienated many ticket sales

[DR. NICK RIVIERA]

thank god Godfather wasn't PG13.

it's a shame when a movie tries to be realistic, but everyone can see the illusion. that's why I can't say this is the best movie this year.

[rakimkoolgrapwutang]

actually dr nick makes good points and i didnt really think about bane being a puppet until he said it. and its a bit annoying cuz in the comics hes kinda like batman. hes a man with lots of ambition and uses it to become this supreme being so its a bit annoying hes talias bitch.

[DR. NICK RIVIERA]

bane is supposedly the smartest batman villain
but not here, it seems

[RADIOACTIVE MAN]

this flick was so good i cant even add my 2cents..im that impressed man..christopher Nolan is truly a genius

[JASPER BEARDLY]

I actually agree with a lot of the given nitpicks

but it was still movie of the year so far
