Yeah. Bloody copyrights! I did see the new trailer looks nice but I want to see the prologue.
The folks who saw the prologue at IMAX said that they couldn't understand what bane was saying! WTF?

notice the terrorist part still conveniently related to current world events (ongoing war on terror) as well as the degradation of batman's (original) integrity, who now acts as a cinematographic personification of fi. the usa government & their military/political torture/deception methods (dark knight: meaning he has no problems acting like a criminal and in time gets used to it, has crossed to 'the dark side', has to pay for that but only symbolically by temporary losing his position), yet they end up portrayed as the winners since there is supposedly no better alternative (dark knight rises: restores his position, his 'fans' or the public in general choose him as the lesser evil, learn to accept/swallow/condone the aforementioned degradation), ie. still get away with it - so, unfortunately, the continued departure from the original fantasy-based 'world' into a less interesting, mundane, realistic (and propagandist) one is again a major theme, which itself represents a corruption/perversion of the original that didn't take itself too seriously (its called comics for a reason) - batman is still an aspiring idealist, however unlike before: questioning, contemplation & inner struggle has been substituted for fanaticism/egoism ('more than a man', 'becoming a legend') & the blind/brainless/ruthless following of his elusive/flawed/illusory ideal

Christian Bale returns as Batman

hopefully with more inspiration this time, since his first appearance in 'batman begins' was a wasted pseudo-opportunity & the next one got overshadowed by the psychotic-as-hell...pumped-full-of-anti-smilex...i'm-the-real-star-of-this-show joker

Tom Hardy as Bane

judging by his miserable 'warrior' role, which featured a brainless zombie-like fighter of few words & much anger/angst/introversion, i wouldn't hold my breath for this one

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman

at least one thing is for sure: m. pfeiffer doesn't need to worry about it, though h. berry might

Here you go guys, full trailer!

**Blocker** · 20.12.11, 04:10

Looking forward to watch this movie

Anne Hathaway as Catwoman
at least one thing is for sure: m. pfeiffer doesn't need to worry about it, though h. berry might

M.Pfeiffer will be the best catwoman ever IMO
