Yup just have a gatorade, some food and a diaper and your set haha I wander if anyone has actually had the guts to do that.... Anyway, I could watch all 3 movies if my theatre's seats were actually comfortable. Thats just too long though and I would prob get a headache.
 
Re: The Dark Knight Rises Discussion

Another new trailer, the fifth one now,but it's at least meaningful in a way, drawing things from the previous movies.

Batman begins is a great one too. It doesn't have any villains as good as the joker but the origin story is really cool and it has much more action and fighting in it. And NINJAS!!! Do I really need to say anything else after NINJAS?

Agreed, Batman Begins is the best comic book character origin movie IMO, it really grounds Batman realistically and delves deep into why and how Bruce Wayne became Batman, I enjoyed it more than The Dark Knight.
 
Re: The Dark Knight Rises Discussion

yea. I loved how TDK was filmed (very nice and cloudy)
And I loved The Joker. But other than that, it wasnt as good as Batman Begins.(still a good movie though)

Batman came off as annoying to me in TDK. All the drama and heroic emotions you felt for Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins werent really present anymore. I know it's supposed to carry over from Batman Begins into the sequel, but I dont know, I just wasnt feeling it. By the end of TDK I really wasnt even rooting for batman anymore. Maybe cause Joker overshadowed him. But I have a feeling The Dark Knight Rises will make me care for the Batman character and backstory again. Its the last one and it will probably bring back alot of meaningfull things.

Oh yes batman's voice was bad in TDK. There's even been lots of parodies on it so hopefully that'll be fixed lol and I would agree that the TDK was def more about the joker and how he was psychologically tearing batman apart, which I did like but I can see how others would not like how it took the spotlight off of batman. Not to mention Heath Ledger was a complete scene stealer every time.
This new one really looks like it's gonna come full circle with both batman and bane's origins being brought up and ending the trilogy. I'm gonna be so sad that it's over after. :(

I would personally say that this is because instead of telling a more personal story concerning Bruce, like the one presented in Batman Begins, TDK was just as much about Gotham's corruption as a whole as it was about Bruce/Batman, if not even moreso. Batman was basically just the main hero in that story; by that I mean, he didn't really seem to have much motivation for what he was doing beyond simply taking down the villains, as demonstrated by one of his conversations with Alfred. So it was harder to really root for him in the story since his overall motives for his heroics were kind of ambiguous beyond the obvious reasons
 
Re: The Dark Knight Rises Discussion

I will be watching this Saturday morning. Where the least number of people are at a theatre.

I refuse to have random guy yelling, and random kids chatting While I watch this movies.

Could it still happen in the morning? sure, but it's a lot less likely.
