Spoiler: Old infos

From IMDB:


Old info:

Spoiler

The fact that there will be another Batman film in Christopher Nolan’s presumptive trilogy is assumed by just about everyone, despite the fact that there has been no formal announcement of the film. But in the runup to the release of Nolan’s Inception, which opens on July 16, there is already some talk about what the next Batman film might look like.

Wally Pfister is the cinematographer responsible for all of Christopher Nolan’s features from Memento on, and his photography was one of the things I liked best about The Dark Knight. He captured Chicago-as-Gotham with a simplicity and clarity that was very uncharacteristic of most superhero films. Now he’s talking about possibilities for the third film, including the option of 3D. Hint: don’t expect Batman 3D.

Cinematical spoke to Pfister when the Dallas Film Society presented him with the Star Award for accomplishments in cinematography. The site promises a full interview in which Pfister explains the “mutual disinterest” he and Christopher Nolan have for 3D. But they do quote him saying,

What Chris and I have talked about is doing something cool and something interesting…Brad Bird was [saying] ‘you’ve got to shoot the whole thing in IMAX!’ I was like, yeah, I’ve talked to Chris about that.

There’s also another comment, which seems to refer to shooting more of this upcoming film in IMAX:

But I think Chris is game for doing something interesting like that, Lord knows that the 3-D fad might pass by the time that summer comes around.

AICN, meanwhile, got a few more of Pfister’s comments from a tipster. Both the cinematographer and Nolan are disinterested in digital cinematography and very much prefer to shoot on film. That’s the root of their disinterest in 3D, which Pfister said is “great for like amusement park rides like the ‘Honey I Shrunk The Kids’ ride at Disneyland.” Pfister also called 3D a distraction and not realistic.

The appeal of IMAX and the disinterest in 3D both come from that love of shooting on film. While 3D lacks realism, shooting in IMAX has huge latitude, and captures incredible detail. The downside to IMAX is that the cameras are bulky and loud, and the format is expensive.

FYI, Batman on Film is saying that Warner Bros. will officially announce the third Batman film in July. Which isn’t that much of a deductive leap, as Nolan hasn’t been interested in talking about Batman while he finishes Inception, and that movie is released in July. Plus, there’s that little Comic Con gathering in San Diego. So expect more news in July.

Can't wait!

Yeah, good question - where is Lucius Fox? He is listed as main cast but he is nowhere in the trailer or prologue

Heard few rumours that (careful - possible major spoilers)

Spoiler

Lucius will die and also that Cotillard's character (Miranda Tate) is really Talia Al Ghul, daughter of Ra's Al Ghul (Liam Neeson), working with Bane on behalf of The League Of Shadows and that she will stab Batman at the end. Leaked set pics showing her getting in one of the Tumblers.

This is too much, lets put our heads together and invent a time machine!

I can't read any spoilers. I wanna go in as fresh as I can like I do with any film I am excited about. I like the time machine idea though. I can watch Prometheus as well

 

[CollectorEmtee]

WB released few official HQ pics. If you want to check them out in full quality go here.

 

[Buffalo MX]

I could not resist I hit the spoiler bottom, interesting if ture

 

[Horhay]

Where the hell did all those Tumblers come from? Why does Bane have Tumblers at his disposal? But then again one fires at the fight scene by the bank when Bane's thugs are fighting and Bane is fighting Batman.

What has he done with Lucius Fox?

Has someone infiltrated Wayne Enterprises?

My mind is awash with all kinds of things.

I just had a random thought, remember that one dude in TDK who was blackmailing Lucius and was going to spill the beans? I am just thinking that he knew the secrets and even uncovered the tumbler plans and knew that Wayne Enterprises had them...

Nice one! That is possible. Didn't like him in TDK and I'm sure if he will meet Bane he will spill everything

On another hand if Bane get Tumblers I like that Bats will upgrade as well - Batwing

You git lol. Just as I thought I was getting things settled you come along and throw that revelation into the mix. I need to go away and collect my thoughts. Horhay you are a swine.

The Dark Knight Rises - 9 High Res Images

 

[Horhay]

I am still not convinced by Anne Hathaway....The rest of the pictures are awesome.

I was afraid of this too but those two shots of Anne in the prologue made me a bit more calm....

 

[sm3ms]

Cant wait for this movie

[manwiththeplan]

A little underwhelmed by the trailer. I don't know, something is missing. However Hathaway's lines in the trailer was pretty convincing. It look likes she'll be good judging by her voice. It was spot on.

Per Screen Rant:

Fun fact: Movie theaters have a lot of input into when they want to sell tickets to films showing in their theaters.


After the success of The Dark Knight Rises IMAX prologue, which previewed before Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, some theaters apparently thought that they could continue the momentum of the high ticket sales motivated by Dark Knight Rises fandom, by selling advance tickets to the actual premiere of the film this upcoming summer. As it turns out, they were right.



With still half a year to go until its official July 20th release date, The Dark Knight Rises has already sold out the IMAX midnight premieres in both the AMC Loews Lincoln Square theater in NYC, and all but two handicap slots at the AMC CityWalk ...

 

[blubook]

I too was a bit put off by the trailer, but the 6 min prologue totally worked for me. I finally 'got' the Bane character and already thought he's menacing. Can't wait for this one (except for Hathaway, a big meh)

 

[Horhay]

wow I got to get my tickets early then

 

[Sigill]

This film is gonna be huge, i can't believe they are selling out already!

 

[CollectorEmtee]

Damn, I wish I was close to IMAX......Was planning a trip to London again but don't know for sure yet so buying tickets with not knowing if I will use them is pointless.

 

[RobertJoseph17]

I've got a real IMAX (as opposed to LieMAX) about five minutes away, but I'll wait a few days to avoid the crazy lines.

[Horhay]

There's plenty of lieMAX all around, but I know some place close to my home where they have true IMAX.
