So, my lovely Gurlfrenn just booked us tickets to the pant-shittingly anticipated The Dark Knight Rises and at the BFI IMAX no less. But why is it then, as a life-long Batman fan, that after the four year wait and year-long, ever intensifying marketing campaign I am overcome with what can only be described as blockbuster ennui? I'm worried the film's going to be overtly anti-occupy and conservative. You can read my full break-down of the film and the conservatism of the first two [url=http://fundividedattention.wordpress.com/2012/06/27/occupy-christopher-nolan/]HERE[/url] Just wonder what the lovely, intelligent gang here will make of it! :P

Daylight filming and Batman just don't go well together, I'm afraid. Batdude: The Daylight Squire?

My only concern is they cannot in any way match what was done by Ledger in the last one...so there may be a big let down not having a performance as strong as that one was in it. But it's Nolan and Looks great again.

I think last movie, even during daylight was good because of joker, not batman. I am waiting for initial reviews from some people who I think are trustworthy in case of review before going to movie.
Uncertainty is the only certainty there is, and knowing how to live with insecurity is the only security.

Not that I care one way or the other, but just a thought... there are plenty of liberal, left-leaning movies out there, so what's wrong with a conservative, right-leaning one? Regardless, my wife and I will be seeing this opening weekend in IMAX for sure. Ledger did quite well in the last one, but I have a feeling Hardy's Bane will be quite good as well. Pure destruction, no discussion or banter... a different kind of enemy.

In Hardy I trust. Watch Bronson or Warrior to see him bring the pain. Great British actor.
