Gopher Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 J. Nolan's first draft was 400 pgs, and just taking the 1pg=1 min rule that's a 6 hr 40 min scriptKenneth Lonergan's first draft of Margaret was 384 pages. I'd love to read these scripts just to see which direction these directors took their movies in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CloneWars Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) Also, even though TDKR had more IMAX footage, I felt they did a better job with TDK's IMAX. The opening shot was epic seeing it on IMAX and put you right into the film. But, I think that Nolan wanted to show off what IMAX could do whereas he was more focused on moving the story along with TDKR than worrying about IMAX shots.And, I did see TDK 4 times in IMAX, so I know how awesome it was.

kayumanggi Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 I can't believe it.... It's bound to gross at least 50M there.China is very strict. It surely is one big loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) 89, I love the final 5-10 minutes of TDK (same with BB), but I strongly dislike the ferry boat/sonar/SWAT sequence.That in itself isn't amazing but I love how Joker's final act in the movie is handled, and like I said the Two face arc in the last third is great. Everything just comes to such a great climax too with kidnapping Gordan's family, and at the time I never expected Batman to take the fall for the crimes. That was a shocking twist to me. And I felt the ferry/Swat sequence was more interesting than TDKR's stop the nuke from destroying the city thing. Felt so overdone. I dunno maybe it's cause TA literally just did that same thing with the hero faux-sacrificing himself to detonate it a few months ago?

Not exactly an original or fresh concept is my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Wasn't that the film that was completed about 10 years ago?Yup. And it's the best movie of 2011. Better than Drive, even. Everyone should see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayumanggi Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) This is a good idea. However, it would be best if we understand Bale too. He has his schedule, his life. We should not do this by force. You know what, why not group yourselves, dress like superheroes and visit these children. You can invite those who like attending cosplays too. These children don't necessarily need "the actor". They need hope and the reason to believe people care for them.

pmoore Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Am I the only only that is excited with the big runtime? I hope the rumored 4 hours version is in the Bluray!Can't wait for that! I remember seeing paparazzi photos from the set of Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle in clothes that did not end up making the movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
