The Dark Knight Rises

It's pretty good. Lotta lens flare, though.

But I must say if the lens flare is that big of a problem, you've probably got way too much
time on your hands to complain about something that has no impact on the quality
of the story of the movie whatsoever, and that is all that should matter.

I, for one, won't watch a movie that doesn't use the occasional star-wipe. :^)

Anyone else notice that "Dark Knight" threads cause more arguments than the religion thread?

[ScottotD]

Well, this will actually happen

No, you were completely overgeneralizing. This is the second time you've shit your pants about someone complaining about something visual in a MOVIE.  God forbid!

Look, Imrahil, I can admit when I am wrong. Maybe I was over-generalizing, but let's face
it, you were doing the same. A visual effect that appears on screen for maybe a second at most
then disappears just doesn't matter to me. Now, these so-called lens flares did not impact
my enjoyment of the film because I am not absurdly picky about how the director chooses to
edit his visual effects. That doesn't matter to me! What matters is that the story is good, and the
characters all have a chance to do something important.

That being said, getting back to TDR, it has been said that Bruce Wayne will most likely step out
of the spotlight for a while and this will prompt Catwoman to take over as another vigilante. I think
it's possible she'll start killing people, and we'll see her provide Batman with the impetus to come
back. Ironically, it is her significant transformation from vigilante to cold-blooded killer that will
inspire Batman to come back because she is what he could have been had he gone into that club
and killed Falconi.

What you dont believe in religion skwisgaar?

[Russell]

Yes, I was overgeneralizing to make a point.
As far as TKR vs. religion...I don't touch religion. I suspect a lot of people are the same way.

When I was on the TSE forum they didn't permit discussion about religion at ALL.

Wimpy cowards.  I think we have had some dandy religion discussions here in this forum.

In the words of Duran Duran "I can't stop myself, it's a New Religion"

So I hear there's a new Batman movie coming out next year. Why not talk about THAT?

Look at my last three posts on this thread! I'm normally guilty of trying to derail a thread, but usually I
also try hard to get it back on track too.

Okay, the Dark Knight rises. I'm thinking there will be a scene where Ra's says to Bruce
"Nyah nyah, told you so!"

I would pay good money to watch batman actually wrestle with the philosophic issues he causes IE he doesnt actually stop crime and his refusal to really deal heavily with the super criminals leads to a rather large civilian death toll.
