Loakum Ugh….scratch that previous comment. The upcoming Game of Thrones video game is a F’in mobile phone game. Why can’t they came an open world GoT game, like Witcher 3 or God of War? (> 3 Months ago)
Loakum By FAR, the upcoming Game of Thrones King’s Road was the Game of the Show! It plays like God of War Ragnarok! :) (> 3 Months ago)

Spidey film is good, rushed in places where it needs expanding and drawn out in other that did not need it, i preferred this Parker to tobeys crying little bitch.
new batman better than both? no. The Avengers was brilliant and spidey was good fun, TDKR was a chore to watch.

It's really hard to compare them really, because each one has sort of a different feeling and a different agenda
The range of emotion I felt during TDKR was maybe bigger than all 3 I think
2 was pretty much suspense the whole time and incredibly dark. The 1st suffers from being mainly an introduction to the character, albeit it's simplicity makes it great.
2 has the most satisfying villain, but I think it's obvious that the Joker should be the greatest of them all given the history between he and Batman. It wouldn't be right to top the Joker and was never going to be possible to beat out Heath's Oscar performance.
3 only suffers because Nolan is trying to close out the film. Some things feel clumsy instead of that solid experience you had with 1 and 2.
Catwoman feels like a bit of a missed opportunity. Selena Kyle however is awesome. Anne Hathaway doesn't make a good super hero but when not in costume she nailed it.
I guess you could make the same case for Bale and his voice too though?
Tom Hardy is awesome as always, and I don't see what people are complaining about with his voice. You can listen to the original in my post above. Had they kept it like the original you wouldn't be able to hear him as well, but it'd be less nasal and more interesting.
I'd blame the initial critics for that one. Hopefully his original voice work is in the dvd/bluray release.
Also the main plot twist is a huuuuuuuuuge missed opportunity. They cast such a good actress for that role. To develop that so little just for a plot twist seems lazy.
In many ways I preferred Hardy's performance, but it's purely down to preference. In terms of the overall movie though, I think TDKR was generally better than either of its predecessors. Begins lacked any standout moments for me, and TDK had a plot which seemed largely redundant... more just a means to reach the ends as opposed to anything else. Ledger kinda carried it in hindsight. But TDKR was the most complete, with only a couple of minor niggles.
And I disagree that the plot twist was a missed opportunity - I certainly wouldn't deem it to be lazy, especially if the initial intention was for the character to function as a twist. I think after watching the film for a second time, knowing what the twist was and so looking out for any hints, made me appreciate that the character was fleshed out more than you would think.
Winter is coming. Brrrr.
But obviously that was impossible because after Begins, Nolan didn't know if he was making a sequel, and after TDK he, again, didn't know.
Thats the only missed opportunity for that character, and it's understandible and completely unavoidable on Nolan's part.
You can dream all you want, kid, but it won't do any good 'cause when you wake up again you'll realize nothing has changed.

If that scene was before i do apologize but none the less, i thought it to be a horrible scene that felt like more warner brothers and DC than nolan.

I think people find the strangest things to complain about when it comes to batman. I mean, don't get me wrong.. the movie is far from perfect. It's pretty cliche at times. Ya know, your sorta standard structure for a hero film. That was a bit long in the tooth after The Avengers in my opinion. That was just a much better movie all around. It may have softened my appreciation for Rises. The end was pretty okay though.
In fact, it was mostly all pretty okay. Just not really remarkable.
he sacrifices himself so the people can live, the people that need to know and deserve to know he is (Gordon mainly) find out his identity before he leaves
the people know what he did to save them, they build a monument in his name,it's one of those happy sad endings
"anybody can be batman" so robin takes his place which was also glorious
but that part at the end, to me broke it all up, if anything we should of seen Alfred having his tea then nod at the screen and all go black, that way everyone is happy.[spoiler/]
but you cant try to make everyone happy or else you just fail overall.
why is it spoiler my last comment? odd.

I don't see any reason to suspect that it was tacked on.
must just be me then lol just felt out of place but then again i think I'm the only person who shivered in a bad way after the "you should use your real name" and how he found out bruce wayne was batman was just wtf.. but thats mainly due to me despising that character overall (not the the one portrayed in this movie, in the batman universe itself)

Most everything in that film seemed to be less to fit the world and more to just wrap up the story with a bow on top (Catwoman more than anything else). Nolan covered as much as he could and closed things up with all the known characters to satisfy fans.
The only complaint about the movie that I've heard, that feels justified, is that the idea of turning an alternative energy solution into a weapon of mass destruction was done just a few months before in the Avengers.
Which was also disposed of in a very similar self sacrificing fashion.
Which was also disposed of in a very similar self sacrificing fashion.
Also: That's not really what happened in The Avengers. The nuke in that movie was always a weapon and the tesseract was never really about producing clean energy.
@Grift: The avengers was nice to look at but it was garbage otherwise. Some parts of DKR may be a little cliche ("Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb!") but it was much, much better written and had way more memorable scenes than the avengers. All I remember well from the avengers was Thor trying to kill Iron man and Captain America, the helicarrier part of the movie that dragged on quite a bit to much, Captain America being fucking useless and the big fight at the end.
And none of that really stood out. Loki was also a shit villain.
