u r mad blud. It had a couple weaknesses (a clip at the end, comedically bad ADR in the opening scene), but it's a great film, I don't believe that you believe it's shit

Bane's accent was not only funny as shit (which i dont think was ment to be) the sound effects dude made him inaudible for the best part of the film, also catwomen was a shit character, shitty one liners, similar ending as inception, the bat plane thing. you know. Was way to dragged on.Just seemed like they developed the script as they where filming it. was pretty gutted with it in all honestly, expected something a lot more.

I'm gonna have to disagree, Catwoman pretty much stole the show, she owned that role, every line she said was executed perfectly. I think what happened at the end was clear as day.

Admittedly I did miss a couple of Bane's words but it was only a couple, I liked his voice a lot, I only thought it was weak in the opening scene.

i thought bane's voice was awesome. the end was a bit gay really and that massive bat flying thing i thought was a bit gash but other than that i thought it was really great. gonna have to watch the others to refresh my memory!

i did see a lot of masonic symbolism, like when commissioner g-dog put that fucking bat sign over the light / sky torch shit. fucking how obvious do you want to get?

im really, really unsure on catwoman. everyone seems to love her but like.. i dunno. i would have preferred an actual catwoman like the one from arkham city rather than a thief with a lame excuse for being a boss at close combat. i agree that she had shitty one liners, and i just didnt buy into her character. there was something missing, something wrong. an arkham city catwoman would have been so much better.

catwoman was terrible. anne hathaway is absolutely gorgeous but her role as catwoman was just sad. i would blame the writing however, not her acting... i respect her more as an actress thinking back. the one-liners were really something i thought nolan would be above, the cheese was laid on pretty thick. it was just inexcusable. i cant remember the line she said before kissing batman before he went off to go try to commandeer the nuclear weapon, but she said something about being a sucker about something and then promptly kissed batman with a dramatic cut from the director of photography.. anyway i pretty much gave up on the movie then if not before when bane died the way he did. you would expect writing like that in a movie such as "how to lose a guy in 10 days".

Not gonna bother with this til it's out on 700MB.
Dark Knight was an over hyped piece of shit much like Inception.

so i'm the only one that appreciated the irony in the scene where the unarmed remainder of the gotham police force heroically charges the escaped convicts ?

thought it was an interesting contrast to the reality where police forces all over the world have been beating the shit out of unarmed protesters for the last 2 years

that scene was one of my most hated. it portrayed the police as heroes of gotham, yet in reality they are just the same as bane's thugs in a variety of ways. at least you see john blake throw away his badge after he fails to help the bus full of children cross, only because the police and military wouldnt let him do so.

I don't understand what happened to all the armoured swat teams that went into the sewers. There was meant to be thousands of armed officers going in but after they were all freed they were just normal unarmed bobbies.

I'm convinced this is a great movie.. but I really enjoy not watching it.
Not watching tdkr is my new hobby.

And to the guy that mentioned the anti-Occupy sentiment, I dont think it was anti-Occupy specifically, but it did seem to paint capitalism and authority into far too good of light.
