Anyone else antsy to see Dark Knight Rises this weekend? I love Nolan movies and he's done amazing with the previous two Batman movies. This is getting amazing reviews thus far and can't wait to see Hardy play Bane. Got my advanced tickets in a VIP 21+ theater for date night Friday. Can't wait.

We have a wedding to go to, but will probably go the 28th instead. Very excited to see this movie.

Everything is a letdown if you anticipate it too much. Every review I've read has been positive. I've stayeda away from anything that might have a spoiler. Rotten Tomatoes is sitting at 96% after 28 reviews.

This is one reason why I go into most movies w/ low expectations. I'm rarely disappointed.

I think he was just doing a so-so job of trolling. :smile:

I saw bootleg footage of "The Man of Steel" trailer from Comic-Con this weekend. I'm really looking forward to that one. It wasn't a good recording, so I'm really looking forward to seeing it in front of The Dark Knight Rises.

Zack Snyder is directing it. That made me nervous with the way he likes to mess with visuals like in 300, The Watchmen or Suckerpunch. From what I could see, it looks like he's restrained himself from that. What's even better is the villian looks to be Zod.

His movies have gotten progressively worse since he started making movies.
Suckerpunch may be the worst movie I have seen in quite some time. Nazi zombies, hot chicks, lots of action... all of these are right in my wheelhouse and he still managed to **** that up.

I was really worried about it when I heard he was directing. Suckerpunch did not help at all. The little bit that I've seen looks promising. Diane Lane, Kevin Costner and Russell Crowe should add something to it.

It's a Christopher Nolan film. It's going to be sweet. Every review I'm reading is a 96% or higher.

This is the movie event of the year, period.


*oh, I just read that you were being sarcastic.... come on! use the jimlad!

This. Until this guy makes a crappy movie, I will give him the benefit of the doubt. It also sucks that Ledger died, because you knew that the Joker was going to make an appearance in this movie.
