Closed Film and TV threads

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I'm with ita. And the more I think about it, I would have liked an ending more like Dark Knight Returns (the graphic novel, just to be clear to people who aren't as obsessed as I am), where Bruce has to stop superheroing because he's too old and beaten up (plus the whole faked-his-own-death thing), but sticks around to train his Robin and other proto-vigilantes. He could have totally stuck around to train Blake.

And Jesse's right -- he can come back. I get that. But I still would have liked to *see* him training Blake. Unf. Actually, I would have liked to see that A LOT. Many times.

Yes, I would pay to see that movie in the theater myself.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I was hoping Alfred would show up at the end for an "I'd like to test that theory" moment. OOC to be sure, but still.

TDKR dropped 76% from last Friday. Ouch, although the first Friday did include midnight showings. Olympics surely didn't help. It's not going to beat TDK, let alone The Avengers.

I finally saw Moonrise Kingdom today. I loved it. I'm going to have to look up exactly where they filmed in RI. Some things looked familiar, but it was shot is such a stylized way that it is hard to recognize things. I definitely think I know where the church in the film is located.

They scouted locations for Moonrise Kingdom with Google Earth.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I still haven't seen TDKR, but I was wondering what people who tend to have stronger opinions on Batman than I do think about these designs: [link]

Those are very cool, -t. I love Robin's outfit.

That's a really weird Nightwing costume, though. I thought she was Catwoman or something. I mean, it's cool; it just doesn't scream Nightwing to me. The Robin outfit is good, though, I agree.

Did Iron man fans already know about this? [link]
