I don't know about you guys but this could be one of the sickest trailers I have seen in a while. I loved the first two and this one looks so sick. Dropping this summer, I can't wait to go see it.


Thoughts?

the film industry needs to leave Batman, Superman, and Spiderman alone for a few years so we can start fresh

the film industry needs to leave every single movie that has ever been made alone forever. if i see one more sequel i might have to find george lucas and kick him in the plums.

As true as this is, I don't give a flying fuck if I know it's going to be shit. I'm lining up hours beforehand for the midnight showing.

I don't get what everyone is complaining about, this is only the third, and Nolan planned on doing 3 from the beginning...I expect it will be very good, but not as good as Dark Knight, I can't see how they can top it, especially with all the hype that was generated because of Heath Ledger...

Batman is just so played out.
Every it's had an at least 2 movie renewal every decade since the TV show was cancelled.
It's always going to be the same story, just a different take on it. I was bored as hell in the Batman Begins, and The Dark Knight was only successful because of how much hype Heath's death generated for the movie. I would place bet amount of money that this one will flop.

Get that arm warmed up then... SPOILER... My buddies brother is a comic book kinda guy and from the comic books he said that this dude is the one to over throw and strike down Batman. Now I donno if it's true or not. All i'm saying is you may wanna get that arm warmed up just in case.

The boy who sings the national anthem all throughout the trailer is a son of my friends history teacher. So that makes me a little famous

Ooooh so an actor that you dont like is in one of his movies and instantly he makes shitty films. you sir are an idiot. Christopher Nolan is one of the greatest directors of our time, with 5 of his movies on the IMDB top 250 list. Also, he is known to work with some of the other greatest people in the film industry such as Hans Zimmer and Wally Pfister. If you don't know who those people are, you may want to look them up before you start arguing against an amazing filmmaker.

I'm not arguing against the film maker I'm arguing against the casting director. Liam Neeson just ruins movies for me, if he is in a movie I can barely stand to watch it.

the IMBD top 250 list is also a joke, they have the departed at 53 and inception at 13, that alone makes this list null and void.

firstly, just because inception has a bad rep because a large population of douche bags have taken a liking to it because "It's so awesome" and then have no idea whats going on doesn't mean it is a bad film. Nolan spent 9 years writing it and it definitely shows in the complexity. Also, Scorcese stole the story from a foreign film called Infernal Affairs to make the Departed and while, yes, the departed is a great film, he gave almost no credit to the original writers.

I'm not even going to watch the trailer because I am so confident the movie is going to be good. Batman Begins and The Dark Knight were amazing, there's no reason to believe this will be any different. Christopher Nolan is an outstanding writer and director.

I might have to agree with this, despite John Williams having a hell of a track record...

they arent, they are fucking fantastic so far..dark night is one of my favorite movies...but what made the first two in the new franchise so great was the element of realisticness they had...this one looks a little far fetched and cartoonish.

JOhn Williams certainly deserves to be mentioned in any movie-music conversation.
