Not bad at all.

Catwoman killing Bane was super gay, and my only real complaint about the movie. How the fuck did she get that motorcycle into City Hall?!

Early Friday, ten people were killed and dozens more were injured after a suspect opened fire at a midnight Dark Knight Rises screening, outside Denver. Colorado NBC affiliate 9 News is reporting that 12 were killed in the shooting and 38 injured.

Sounds pretty awesome.

There were Zero people killed on Avengers' opening night.

Actually, after this story broke, this movie definitely got better. Come to think of it, never has a movie inspired such hysteria at an opening premier. You should probably drop everything and run, not walk, not drive, but run to the theater right now.

I won't be able to see this until 3 weeks from now All of my weekends are booked solid. I hope it's good!

I don't think anything could have followed The Dark Knight and surpassed it with the Ledger performance, but this is pretty fucking close. This is how you close out a trilogy people. No faggoty bouncing on a bed and 30 minutes of victory lapping before a boatride. No stuffed teddy bears bringing down the elite troops of a galaxy spanning empire. No emo haircut dance scene with a hero who is a bigger douche than the bad guy. No dragon ball z fight in the rain with Smith where you basically just give up at the end. Just two and a half hours of foot to the floor action and three minutes of tying the bow afterwards.

I expect to get flamed for saying this, but I think its probably the best movie trilogy ever made and certainly the best comic book movie franchise ever. I loved Avengers, but this movie was at a whole other level. Top notch acting, action, and story. Avengers had the first two nailed, but not the third, at least not to the degree of TDKR. Also, I seriously hope Oldman does more movies with Nolan and his crew, because he really nailed Gordon in this movie.

This movie is good so far.

I was watching a pretty crappy cam version of it and fell asleep halfway through but it seemed ok. No way I'm going to a theater and getting shot by some crazy white guy shooting other white people. I'd risk it for a Marvel character!

It's leaning a little too much to the emo side of things, self pity, etc but not bad.

Movie was decent for a Batman-movie, but it sure was no Avengers.

Best thing was Selina Kyle though


Also loved when Val Kilmer and George Clooney were sitting at the restaurant that Bruce Wayne was in, that was classy. Same as having Jim Carrey working the question desk at the airport. Cute how they put the question mark above him.

Nice nod to Killer Croc by Nolan as well as seeing Danny DeVito, Burt Ward and Hawkman staring down from the rooftops at the end.

I watched the Blu ray last night. I thought it was pretty good. The movie had plot holes I could drive a car through and beyond stupid situations, but the incredibly strong ending somehow made those a non issue to me. I was entertained and enjoyed the ride. I think the second movie was the best, but Rises is indeed a worthy follow up.

I did not see any of the twists coming and I was very happy to see the Trilogy come full circle with the final film. It is indeed a very strong trilogy, but LotR is still #1 for me.
