Making the 6 hour trip to Valentine Nebraska this afternoon because apparently my friend didn't get the memo that it comes out this weekend. Have to see the movie and a tiny theater in Valentine, Ne tomorrow night. Only positive is I'm not driving so I get to watch Begins and The Dark Knight on the way up.

Has anyone else had trouble buying tickets off of fandango? I used PayPal through a guest account and gave me some error but it still went through on my PayPal. I can't find the tickets either.

In the midst of moving and have a 2-month old at home. No idea when I'll get to see it or how I'll avoid spoilers .

 

[CycloneWarrior]

Bump.

30 minutes

Bump.

30 minutes

So now at 12:21, you only have, what? 15 more minutes of previews?

My wife got us tickets for tomorrow night... This is the first movie I've made a point of seeing on opening night since The Dark Knight.

Spoiler - Snape kills Dumbledore!



Actually there are a couple of twists in the movie that would be worth spoiling....

Just got home from it and I really enjoyed it. Bane was a good villain and Joseph Gordon-Levitt did a great job.

My mind was just blown. Wow.

That was a very solid movie, and a great way to complete the trilogy. Loved the way it ended.

Wow, is all I can say!!!! That movie was awesome and I've got to admit that I was skeptical going in about how hard it would be to follow the Dark Knight. They did it it. While this one doesn't have an individual performance quite like Heath Ledger's Joker in the Dark Knight, I'd say that this movie was overall on par if not, dare I say, better than its predecessor. Like someone else mentioned, you couldn't of ask for a better ending to the series too.

I do see now that the critics really liked the movie too, but most not quite as much as the last one. I still stand by the fact that I like this one as much or possibly more than the Dark Knight. Haven't quite fully decided yet.

Decent movie but I don't know that I would put it better than the Dark Knight. At the very least, this movie is not as stand alone as the Dark Knight is - as a capstone it stands on the shoulders of the previous two movies

This one has a much different feel to it than the Dark Knight did, so its hard to give a one to one comparison as well


I think the overall acting was better in Dark Knight, tough I enjoyed some of the new characters performances. I also think they crammed too much story into this film, a film this grand could have been split into two and expanded upon, though I'm not sure it would have added to the entertainment value (not as action packed as the last ones. Not bad, but completely different feel and auidience)

I still have a couple questions on the ending, but I don't wanna post in on here so it doesn't spoil it for people who haven't seen it

PM me if you want to discuss it. They really packed a lot into the last couple minutes.

$30.64 million in midnight showings. Impressive

I think TDKR was a great sequel to BB and not really related to TDK. Not that that's a bad thing, at all, it's just that the story arcs of BB and TDKR are related and TDK is more of a standalone. With that in mind, it's very difficult to compare TDKR to TDK. I like them both - a lot - for different reasons.

 

[BallSoHard4Cy]

I'm not gonna see this movie. Just in case

 

[Gnomeborg]

I was actually pretty disappointed with the movie.

 

[Palmer]

The fights between Bane and Bats were brutal.

 

[shagcarpetjesus]

I liked it. I thought it was an enjoyable movie. But I don't really understand some of the people who act like this trilogy of movies should be part of the canon of greatest cinema of all time.
