Dark Knight Rises

[Dr Strangelove]

Found this at that link Al gave - you yanks are really weird

Why did the lifeguard go to the Emergency Room?

[The Mad Monk]

Crazy? I was crazy once. They put me in a room. A RUBBER room. A rubber room with RATS. RATS? I HATE rats. They make me CRAZY.

Ever think of dying your hair orange?

[The Mad Monk]

Nah. It would clash with my hazel eyes.

In case anyone's wondering, the movie was ****ing AWESOME.

Hell no! The movie was so disappointing.

Everything was obvious and boring.

Spoiler:

"Here's fusion device that could be turned into a bomb...but that will never happen." *wink* *wink* "Oh, and here's an advanced arsenal of tanks and guns...but they're all safe. Trust me."

"Let's start the movie with nearly an hour of no Batman!" "Oh, and let's not have many more scenes with him. It's like people came to see him, and I'm sure Bane can carry the show."

Gotham's all cleaned up now, so I guess Ras was wrong. "Nope! It still has rich people! Gotham must die!!!"

Hey, look at that boy cop running around helping Batman. What a wonder! Oh, his real name is Robin. I'm so surprised.

Ras had a kid. His kid was girl in every other incarnation of Batman stories. "No, Bane is his kid!" Oh, but what about telling us that Bane was messed up in that stupid prison? "Yeah, he was. So?" Well, um, the kid that crawled out looked fine. "Um..." So if Bane isn't his kid, we'll look for a female. Hmmm, which of the two women in the entire movie could it be?

Alfred: "I failed you!" No, you didn't. Nolan isn't so bad to undermine that part of the story. Especially with the setup you gave us some two hours ago...

Also, what does Batman have in common with House?

"Hey Bane, let's finish my father's job." "Derrr, sure. He was kind of a dick to me, and there's no reason to believe his relationship with you was anything special besides you telling us. OK, I'm in." "Oh, but first let's dick around a bit...you know, because Daddy gave Batman like 30 seconds to stop him. I'm sure nothing could go wrong in five months."

"Hi, I'm Scarecrow. I was the only one let out of Arkham Asylum. The Joker was left in, because...you know."

"At least, I finished my father's dream. And now I'm dead." "Huh, what an odd thing to say."

"Hey guys! I just found these papers that I won't let you see! They say that everything Gordon told you was a lie. Also, it says that we should all move to Utah and wear magic underwear." "Um...right. We believe you and that has nothing to do with your nuclear bomb and all the guns."

Robin: "Wait, all that good you did was based on a lie? I'm going to get pointlessly self-righteous for a minute before forgetting about it. Harvey who?"

OMG! He's climbing without the robe this time! No way he's gonna make it now!

Also, you'd think falling with the robe around your waste like that would seriously hurt or even kill someone. Yet, somehow, I suspect it only made his back stronger.

Anyway, there were a lot of problems with the movie. It certainly didn't live up to the first two. And my biggest complaint, other than treating us like idiots, was not enough Batman. In the second movie, Batman seemed dull. But that was because the Joker was so much fun. Bain isn't fun. So every scene without Batman dragged on. In fact, there was so little Batman that it hardly felt like a Batman movie.

[MrFun]

That's what I thought about falling with the rope too. Wouldn't it break a person's spine?

Don't forget Bruce Wayne and Catwoman making up even though she tried to have him killed .

The pointlessness of bane dicking around for five months when he has a nuclear bomb to detonate is by far the movie's biggest and most pathetic flaw.

[Felch]

I thought it was odd that a back of the envelope calculation about when the bomb would go off ("in five months") turned out to be accurate to the second.
