The Dark Knight Rises *SPOILERS*

I thought she was pretty great. So, Nam is wrong in other words.

I have the world's worst taste. So, Nam is right in other words.

Dammit, why can't I be in love with the Fantastic Four movies while hating the Nolan movies like those with "good" taste like Nam?

Not liking Hathaway's performance means I hate Nolan's movies? You should read more of my posts. Your comeback is very Alex Logan-ish.

Saw this in another thread:

Saw TDKR yesterday and was disappointed. . .TDKR proves Nolan knows absolutely ZILCH about Batman

Guess I misinterpreted your affection for the film somehow when you say it is disappointing, that the director doesn't know anything about the main character, etc.

Keep reading. I validate that post.

I found it hard to believe a director who nailed it so perfectly with Batman Begins could ____ it up so badly with the last film in the trilogy. Since I'm not the only one saying that, your point is moot.

You're in the minority so his point isn't really moot.

 

[karamazov80]

OK, so you like one film and dislike the other two, therefore you don't dislike the franchise as a whole. Fine. You still defend those Fantastic Four abominations, and that makes all your opinions on movies moot

Maybe among Nolancompoops who think the man infallible and the messiah of cinema.

Looking at it's overall reception I would say it applies to the entire population, which of course includes the poops.

So you're intentionally just skipping over the several people here, some of which are hardcore TDK fanboys, who saw issues in the film?

TDK is winning the poll for favorite of the trilogy with BB ahead of TDKR: https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113802
And 1/3 of voters are saying it didn't meet their expectations: https://sideshowcollectors.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113838

So it's hardly the "entire population."

The FF movies were horrible... I didn't know Nam liked those. The only redeemable factor for those movies was the Surfer and Chiklis as the Thing.

Galactus as an alien cloud?

I enjoyed them as mindless fun. Kara would have you believe I'm running around with FF underoos on, which is not the case, but he needed to drama queen it up to make his post look better.

Where it falls in the trilogy isn't the what you find at fault though. You said he ____ed it up to which I'm saying you're in the minority of that point of view.

And I'd argue that if he hadn't, it would be unanimously considered the best film of the trilogy.

 

[DarkArtist81]

Well, everyone is entitled to their own opinions. That is one thing I love about art, especially film... we all bring a bit of our personality and our history to the table when we take in art...

Our liking or not liking of anything is heavily influenced by who we are. I wasn't into the Batman comics when I was really young, but once my Mother died (when I was 12) I started to connect with the character. So it's all subjective.

Hans Zimmer Records Composition to Benefit Aurora Shooting Victims

We’re all still reeling from the tragedy that struck Aurora, Colorado last weekend, none moreso than the victims and family members affected by the senseless crime. Hans Zimmer, who composed the score for The Dark Knight Rises, has now written and recorded a new composition titled “Aurora.” Here’s what Zimmer had to say about the track on his Facebook page:

“Aurora” is dedicated to those who lost their lives and were affected by the tragedy in Aurora, Colorado. I recorded this song in London in the days following the tragedy as a heartfelt tribute to the victims and their families.

100% of the proceeds from the track will be donated to the Aurora Victim Relief organization. It’s a moving composition, and it provides film lovers like us an easy opportunity to pay tribute to those that lost their lives simply for going to the movies. The track will be up on iTunes shortly, but for now you can head over to this page to download the composition and make a donation. Even if it’s just 10 cents, every little bit helps.
