  1. It's a wonderful wonderful movie. The simplicity of the movie and the message which Capra tries to convey still stands the testament of time...especially the last half hour which is just out of the world. Among the greatest gems of all time..among one of the pillars of Hollywood of old times and one of my favorites.
  2. This looked to me the most ambitious Batman movie from Nolan on epic scale. However the coherence seems to be lacking compared to the other two. At times the pace was uneven which was bit surprising given how Nolan commands it. It still though is an excellent movie overall. The trilogy comes to full circle with The Dark Knight Rises. Nolan weaves TDKR like bridge between Batman Begins and TDK but the heart is closer to the more emotional and atmospheric Batman Begins (was great to see the focus on Wayne again which I felt was missing in TDK). And oh the climax was stupendous with all the chaos, twists, action till the very artistic including the last scene with Michael Caine :)The acting was great overall and unfortunately poor Bane seems to be fallen for being compared with Ledger/Joker. May be if this came before TDK people would have liked him more.I need to see it again to judge where TDKR stands in the trilogy. But as of now I will say TDK (9/10)>TDKR(8/10) while BB (10/10) still remains my favorite.Some movies are liked even more on second viewing. "Sometimes movie deserves more...sometimes movie deserves to have their faith rewarded" (TDK..changed "people" to "movie" here)
  3. Had been few years since I watched this...one of the most emotionally devastating film. I remember I cried like anything after the movie. 10/10 and among my top 20 films of all time.
  4. This is one of the most depressing weekend for box office discussion since I joined BOM...that damn psycho spoiled everything
  5. Never thought the forum will become slow on TDKR weekend...damn that psycho
  6. So there won't be early Saturday guesstimates from Nikki as well..
  7. Not sure if this have been already posted...from Gitesh: #TDKR update from a different source: FRI now tracking to finish in low 80s. West coast evening shows now starting. https://twitter.com/giteshpandya/status/226480077762871296
  8. I am loving that TDKR is closer to BB than TDK...can't wait to see
  9. Really mediocre...in spite of changing villain and some other aspects it still didn't felt anything new. 1st and 2nd movies look masterpiece infront of this dull and boring reboot. Stone and Garfield's chemistry was good. Although Garfield was ok but I really don't like Garfield's "almost always on the verge of tears" kind of acting.
  10. Films1. DH22. GOF/POA3. POA/GOF4. Sorcerer's Stone5. Chamber of Secrets...rest all other Yates directed movies in no particular order
  11. Early numbers have #AmazingSpiderMan at $35M today, which tops 'Transformers' ($27.9M) for best Tuesday gross ever. https://twitter.com/#!/boxofficemojo/ whether BOM have ever early numbers reported before? lol
  12. Pretty easy actually if you go by rating and number of votes on more wider scale:http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0167260/http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120338/
  13. Simply outstanding for THG....more power to Jennifer Lawrence
  14. Actually pretty average movie. Especially after all this hype and people praising it so much I was quite underwhelmed. Jennifer Lawrence was star of the show indeed. The fight for survival and all were hardly intense and it gets lost somewhere. To an extent so much that I liked the first hour of the movie more than the last. Will rate it 6-6.5 as of now.
  15. Late too join...but seriously this wtf number for Safe House..never saw that coming
