LOL - Schumacher trained as a fashion designer and he’s gay. The nipples were inevitable - he probably had a nipple clause written into his contract.

So did Nolan say this would be the last Batman movie he does?[/quote]

Yes. He’s said that his interpretation of Batman will have a definite resolution, so Bats will either succeed in cleaning up Gotham or he’ll die trying:

The link is out of date now (I originally posted it way back on page 7), but here is the meat of the article:

"Without getting into specifics, the key thing that makes the third film a great possibility for us is that we want to finish our story, he said. And in viewing it as the finishing of a story rather than infinitely blowing up the balloon and expanding the story…

“I’m very excited about the end of the film, the conclusion, and what we’ve done with the characters, Nolan said. My brother has come up with some pretty exciting stuff. Unlike the comics, these things don’t go on forever in film and viewing it as a story with an end is useful. Viewing it as an ending, that sets you very much on the right track about the appropriate conclusion and the essence of what tale we’re telling. And it harkens back to that priority of trying to find the reality in these fantastic stories. That’s what we do.”

Either way, the trilogy is going to be self-contained, and whatever fate has in store is for Batman/Bruce Wayne, it will be hard for another director to take the reigns of the franchise and expand on Nolan’s vision.

Also seems like there’ll be no Joker after all :frowning: :

http://www.myhollywoodsource.com/2010/12/the-dark-knight-rises-christopher-nolan’s-last-batman-movie-no-joker-included/

"Furthermore, it now seems that the rumours of Heath Ledger returning as the Joker in the third movie can be put to bed, with both Warner Bros. and Christopher Nolan quashing the suggestion. The studio at the helm of the franchise issued a statement earlier this week:

â??Firstly, yes, the original plan was to have The Joker play a small part in the third â??Batmanâ?? movie. He wouldâ??ve been in a prison, and much like Clarice Starling and Hannibal Lecter, wouldâ??ve played an unlikely aide to his arch-nemesis Batman, whoâ??d be on a mission to stopâ?¦ Two Face.â??

If like I do, you donâ??t like to believe anything Dark Knightrelated until you hear it from the man himself. Thompson on Hollywood has reported that Christopher Nolan killed the rumour at the launch party for the DVD and Blu-ray of Inception, simply stating â??thatâ??s all wrong"."

I probably know the back story better than you chum. Nolan would never ever do the Lazarus pit. There’s a reason there will be no venom, no mr freeze, no poison ivy etc… He’s focused on bringing a realistic story to the screen.
[/quote]

There are ways to do the Lazarus Pit and Venom in a realistic manner just as there was a way to present Ra’s immortality in a realisitic manner, so citing Nolan’s move towards realism proves nothing. Having said that, your predictions for Thor were spot-on, so I’ll defer to your obviously superior knowledge of all things Batman.

If I’m so far off, give myself and everybody else on this thread the benefit of your expertise : What do you think Nolan will do in the next movie? What is your explanation for the green screen in a pit? How does this explanation fit in with Nolan’s universe?

[/quote]
I never claimed to be an expert, I just think your conclusions are off. I really have no idea what he’s going to do. I’m guessing the mob will be trying to reclaim what they’ve lost. The police will be after Batman and the League may play a role. I don’t know enough yet.

Thought as much. If you “don’t know enough yet” (which didn’t stop you from wailing about how Thor would suck when Kat Dennings busted out the funnies in the trailer), stop piggybacking peoples’ posts with criticisms then, as is your wont. Venom will feature, otherwise Bane’s mask wouldn’t have pipes on the front. Look at the close-up I posted.

I’ll concede that I was wrong about Scarecrow, but I haven’t seen TDK since it came out, so I’ve done pretty well remembering most of the movie considering his arrest was incidental and I’ve only seen it once, many moons ago. Scarecrow’s absence doesn’t preclude the possibility that venom is a LoS weapon nor does Chris Nolan’s emphasis on realism mean that the Lazarus Pit won’t feature. All that means is that it won’t be a source of eternal life.

But, by your rationale, since there isn’t enough info out there we should all just STFU and wait instead of discussing possibilities like adults who enjoy and appreciate what we’ve seen so far. Which makes this thread a complete waste of time.

And you do think you’re an expert. You’ve told me that I can’t debate movies with you, you know more about the backstory than your “chum” here, yet there was no mature debate on your part, only insults. All you can do is tear other peoples’ theories down and offer none of your own in response. You start a thread for discussion but clearly don’t want one.

This probably won’t happen and is definitely a long shot; however, I will reserve my suspicions that Nolan may just bring the joker back after all (even though not as the main villain). It has been announced that Joseph Gordon-Levitt has been added to the cast. Throw some joker make up on this guy and tell me he won’t look pretty much exactly the same. It would certainly catch everyone by surprise as Nolan has been throwing very few bones out to the press. [/quote]
His role has been confirmed already. My guess is he’ll play some supercop that’s hunting Batman.[/quote]
I know. He’s been cast as the “Holiday Killer;” however, it wouldn’t be out of character for Nolan to just be throwing us off his trail. [/quote]

I believe that rumor was said to be false and that he’s just playing a copper.

I criticized your ideas you got pissed. Boo hoo

Love these batman flicks… Anyways, that Bane pic is pretty cool and disturbing… whne i look at it it almost appears to me like the mask has been grafted to his skull…like hes a caged animal, a grotesque experiment gone wrong. I think the character is going to surprise us all. Hardy can be quite terrifying.

Also, to the guy whos saying thats definitely a lazarus pit, no way to tell for sure. They green screen things all the time in films for totally different purposes. just because its a green screen in a pit does in no way mean lazarus pit. Also, how do you know thats a cats eye in the bane pic lol? Looks to me like a light. Either way, i have a feeling this movie will not dissapoint.

I’m “the guy”. OK, what do you think it’s for? Don’t be like that post parasite and be opinionated without actually having an opinion. He dismissed the possibility that it was the Lazarus pit outright. When I asked him what he thought it was, the backpedalling started almost immediately. You’d think he’d have learned his lesson from the “Kat Dennings in the Thor trailer saying stuff! OMG this will suck” debacle.

This is a thread for discussion: which is why if everybody sat around around waiting for someone with an actual fucking imagination to present ideas just so they can be pissed on like he does there’d be no discussion, and no point to this thread, just as there’s no point to the above comment if you yourself are clueless about what else it could be.

Seems like the most vocal critics are the ones with least to say. That’s not me “crying”, but tearing down somebody elses theories just to have something to post should make you embarassed
to call yourself a fan (that’s more directed at sardines than you, and he’s starting to remind me a lot of another poster who was banned after getting caught using alternate accounts. He elicits the same reactions from people for one thing. Time will tell). That child must resent the idea that anybody else watches these movies. That’s the way he represents himself.

Not an eye, you say?

How big does the photo have to be? Do ‘lights’ have pupils? FML.

Why do I even bother?

Lol chill out there buddy… I wasnt calling anyone out, nor was I dismissing the fact it “could” be the lazarus pits… Guess what? IT also has just a good a chance of NOT being them too. I was simply pointing out that directors use GREEN SCREENS all the time…In fact if you think about it, if they wanted to have a green liquid fro a lazarus pit, it would be much simpler and cheaper to use water. That green screen could be anything…from a cave… to a part of a prison…literally anything.

Im just as clueless about what it could be as you are Sir. Hence why im simply offering a different viewpoint on what it could be… idk why your so offended. i wasnt pissing on anything. simply stating green screen doesnt automatically equal “omg iz teh lazurus pitz”

LOL…actually no im not convinced at all thats an “eye”…in fact on the superhero hype boards(yes im a geek and visit there quite often), a user blew up the pic and superimposed everything to the point where the light expanded around the supposed “eye”…and guess what? Its not an eye at all… but ill let you believe what you want.

Sure, with the amount of posts I’ve made regarding the League of Shadows on this thread, it still boils down to me being clueless and screaming “Lazarus Pit!” at shots of a green screen…

You haven’t read through them though have you? Why do I bother?

Superimposed? Links to this expert and conclusive debunking of the controversial cat’s eye, then please.

LOL @ Bat-Fight.

Sure, with the amount of posts I’ve made regarding the League of Shadows on this thread, it still boils down to me being clueless and screaming “Lazarus Pit!” at shots of a green screen…

You haven’t read through them though have you? Why do I bother?

Superimposed? Links to this expert and conclusive debunking of the controversial cat’s eye, then please.[/quote]

Right…Your the one who is insisting that it is most likely a lazarus pit. the fact that the green screen was in a pit means absolutely nothing… They green screen buildings, furniture, walls,etc etc and the stuff that ends up in the particular movie ends up having nothing to do with the object that was green screened. your implying that because you think the LOS is in the film plus the lazarus pit has green liquid that it must be a lazarus pit. Again, it could just as likely be a cave…There, theres the alternative viewpoint spelled out clear as day for you. And guess what? My opinion of it possibly being a cave, prison, desert, hell anything is just as valid as you seeing a lazarus pit whether you like that or not.,As for the cats eye, It was posted on SHH right after the bane pic was revealed. Im not going to go digging through all the posts over there to find it. But your pretty set in your ways anyhow, so like i said believe what you will.

Fuckin nerds

Nolan flipped a semi with a trailer without using any cgi, I’m inclined to believe if he’s using a green screen in a pit looking area it’s not so he can put some furniture in there. He’d just put the fucking furniture in there because he likes things to be real.

Also, are you aware of what ‘superimposed’ means? What you said about the image/cat’s eye makes no sense. You don’t ‘superimpose everything to the point where’ blah blah… superimposing is putting an image on top of another one. You meant to say that he enlarged it to a very high degree and guess what? When you enlarge images well past the resolution they were meant to be viewed they become extremely distorted and you can’t take away from it what you are trying to(that it is or isn’t an eye). The only purpose that really serves is to detect doctoring of pixels, or editing said pixels.

Fair enough on the superimposing… my brains fried from a 12 hour shift and i used the wrong choice of words… regardless, it by no means is definitely a cats eye as the other poster was suggesting. As far as your other comments, my point still stands about a green screen being almost anything. I was using furniture as an example of something that can be green screened to look like something else, not that nolan was gonna put furniture in there, lol… its pretty funny you used furniture as a reference point tho, because in some of the set photos there was people sitting in chairs, others that looked like henchmen with hoods on, standing IN the green pit. Like I said, Im not denying it could be the fucking lazarus pit lol. its just as likely however that it is not. your using the argument of nolan not using cgi to flip a truck which means he likes to keep things very real. So how real would a lazarus pit be by that logic?
