The Match Cut Xtreme Crocheting Thread (and The Dark Knight)

[Grouchy]

Whatcha talking 'bout, Willis? There's an actual political campaign with Dent being made to promote the movie?

That's creative fucking advertising.

[megladon8]

This is a great interview with Christian Bale (http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20184780,00.html).

I don't get why everyone's acting so surprised about there being a third movie.

The lead actors signed for three movies, and the story has been meant as a 3-movie arc from the beginning.

Did Nolan sign on for the third movie?

[megladon8]

Did Nolan sign on for the third movie?


Not sure about that.

I just know Bale, Oldman and Freeman signed 3-movie deals.

Also, Goyer and Nolan collaborated on a 3-movie story arc, involving the rise (and potential fall) of Batman, as well as a story involving the Joker and Two-Face for movies 2 and 3.

[Sxottlan]

So while the Joker could survive this film, executives will probably have to decide if he'll just disappear from Film 3 or else recast him, which after however Ledger's performance is received, could be difficult.

I'm sure some clever writers could come up with a way to have him disappear.

Or maybe they could do like what they did with Marlon Brando in Superman Returns, and use CGI coupled with unused footage to have Ledger's presence in the second film.

Anyways, Nolan and his team have more than proven themselves numerous times, so I'm sure that we'll get something good.

Depending on the final cut for Dark Knight they might not have that much of a problem. If Joker occupies a similar role to that of Scarecrow in that his arch is not very deep and reaches a satisfying conclusion, his inclusion in the ubiquitous 3rd film may be unnecessary. It may disappoint some Batman fans to have the Joker so quickly excised from the overall story but I think that Two Face is a much more compelling villain and that his story suits the larger arch far more than the Joker's. The difficulty now is pairing down his impact so that it doesn't feel unnatural when it doesn't resonate in the future Batman story. At the same time, cutting too much will leave his presence feeling overly fragmented. Let's just pray. . .

[number8]

I don't get why everyone's acting so surprised about there being a third movie.

The lead actors signed for three movies, and the story has been meant as a 3-movie arc from the beginning.

It's never as cut and dry as that. These days when you go into a blockbuster movie (especially a comic book one) you are required to sign multiple contracts because they're already hoping for a franchise. It doesn't mean it'll happen. Affleck signed for 3 Daredevils too. Bale signed for a Batman vs Superman movie. That's not happening anytime soon (if ever).

And the planned 3-story arc was Goyer's original pitch, but that's long gone. The movie's changed considerably, and they absorbed the storyline for the third movie into this one. We don't know yet if they won't resolve the Two-Face story in this movie or leave it open. I'm guessing they resolve it.

Nolan has said that he doesn't know if he wants to do a third Batman. He doesn't like thinking about sequels, and he's already got The Prisoner, The Exec, and other projects lined up after Dark Knight. Who knows if 3 years from now he still feels like he has a story to tell?

WB will throw a gazillion dollars at him and it'll probably happen, but that's why they keep asking about the third movie. Until pre-production is greenlit, nothing's for sure.

[Grouchy]

I dunno if I'm alone here, but I'd prefer they went with another actor instead of doing a CGI Joker or cutting him out of a script that needs the character's presence.

Like, come on. I haven't even seen Ledger's performance yet, but it's the only reasonable alternative.

[number8]

"You can tell Jack Nicholson was having fun doing that, but you can see Heath probably put his soul into it," said "Brokeback Mountain" director Ang Lee. "That's why it's scary. You see the trailer, just a few shots of him, you have to see the movie. ... I'm anxious to see it. I'm afraid to see it. I don't know how I'll respond to it, but you have to see it."

[Qrazy]

Yeah, I really hope they don't recast, I don't like that much. Here's hoping they just wrap his storyline and start on something else or don't make a third one at all. Third film of a trilogy is often the weakest anyway, everyone runs out of steam.

Actually, I think the second is generally the worst.

Except for Star Wars.

[number8]

Actually, I think the second is generally the worst.

Except for Star Wars.

Uh, no.

- Spiderman 2 is the only good movie out of the trilogy.
- X2 is the best out of the X-Men films.
- Temple of Doom is the best Indy.
- Khan. Duh.
- Bourne Supremacy, best of the three.
- Godfather Part II? Hello?
- The Two Towers.

I'm sure there's more when I can think of other series.

[Watashi]

Actually, I think the second is generally the worst.

Except for Star Wars.
Two Towers > Return of the King
Matrix Reloaded > Matrix Revolutions
Terminator II > Rise of the Machines
Aliens > Alien3

I could go on....

[number8]

Matrix Reloaded > Matrix Revolutions
Terminator II > Rise of the Machines
Aliens > Alien3

There we go. I forgot about those.

I'll do you one better. Reloaded > The Matrix.

[Qrazy]

Actually, I think the second is generally the worst.

Except for Star Wars.

OK, well maybe I don't mean trilogy so much as series (I realize the creative forces changed up for many of these but that's still an example of the problem with third installments)... examples:

Batman
Alien
Terminator
Godfather
Lord of the Rings (debatable but I'll stand firm)
Star Wars
Back to the Future
Naked Gun
Matrix
Evil Dead (again debatable but *shrug*)
Spiderman
Rocky
Rambo
X-men
Robocop
Scream
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Pirates of the Caribbean


I'll leave out the pure arthouse trilogies cause I think it's a different ball park.

[Qrazy]

.
- Temple of Doom is the best Indy.


I'm with you everywhere but here.

[megladon8]

Uh, no.

- Spiderman 2 is the only good movie out of the trilogy. No it's not.
- X2 is the best out of the X-Men films. Agree.
- Temple of Doom is the best Indy. No.
- Khan. Duh. Yes.
- Bourne Supremacy, best of the three.No, it's the weakest


I can think of tons of series' where the second is the weakest, aside from the ones mentioned above.

The Matrix, Star Wars prequels, Die Hard, Austin Powers, American Pie, Lethal Weapon, the Anthony Hopkins Lecter films...

Though I guess it usually comes down to whether or not it was conceived as a multi-movie series with a plot throughout, or if it's just milking the cash cow.

Eh, I guess we just have totally different taste because I disagree with almost all of those.

Terminator
Godfather

Back to the Future

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Pirates of the Caribbean

I narrowed the list to the one's I think are pretty well established (at least on RT and here) as having a weakest third film (forgetting the later films in each series if they have them... fourth film etc), which of these do you disagree with? Just curious to see how much you disagree with the selections.

Unfortunately I can't comment on the Pirates of the Caribbean series because I have only seen the first.

But I admit I got yours and number8's arguments mixed up - when you posted the big list, I thought they were examples of series' where the 2nd film was the strongest, not where the 3rd was the weakest.

But still, I'll give you my thoughts...

Batman - 3 is much better than 4. I actually like Batman Forever.

Alien - Alien 3 is great.

Terminator - agree here.

Godfather - only seen the first

Star Wars - agree.

Back to the Future - agree

Matrix - I loved Revolutions

X-men - agree

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - agree

[Morris Schæffer]

I forgot about the Lecter films.

Hannibal > Silence of the Lambs > Red Dragon.

No way dude!! Why on earth would you put Hannibal ahead of Silence? Why would anyone for that matter? :confused:

Manhunter?

[number8]

No way dude!! Why on earth would you put Hannibal ahead of Silence? Why would anyone for that matter? :confused:

Because Hannibal is fucking awesome and Silence is way overrated.

[megladon8]

I can't say I love Hannibal, but I do agree that The Silence of the Lambs is super overrated.

[EyesWideOpen]

Batman Forever > Batman & Batman Returns

They are all mediocre but if I had to watch one i'll take Forever anytime.

[Rowland]

Hannibal over Silence? Inconceivable...

[[ETM]]

I'm kinda glad Silence is not "fucking awesome".

[number8]

Batman Forever > Batman & Batman Returns

They are all mediocre but if I had to watch one i'll take Forever anytime.

I'd rather suck Tommy Lee Jones' dick than see Forever.

Out of all four, I will always pick B&R to watch.

[EyesWideOpen]

well yeah B&R is great to watch to have fun with and B&R has Clooney the best Bruce Wayne of the bunch.

[megladon8]

Batman Returns is the best of the four, by far.

[Qrazy]

Wow, have I entered crazy town? The Schumacher films are god awful.

[number8]

Batman & Robin > Batman >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Batman Returns > Batman Forever

[SirNewt]

Wow, have I entered crazy town? The Schumacher films are god awful.

No, at certain viewings of the Schumacher films a rare African spore was released into the air that pleasantly intoxicates its host. Thus, in a move, by the studio suits, to try and stem the overwhelming tide of negative word of mouth, some have associated a pleasant experience with the films. It was sort of a mass Pavlovian experiment. Those of us who didn't get high, well, we just felt nausea.

[MadMan]

Batman & Robin > Batman >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Batman Returns > Batman Forever:crazy: Batman and Robin is one of the worst films ever made. Batman is actually the only really good one out of the bunch, although BR is fairly decent and BF has its moments, however few they may be.

[lovejuice]

:crazy: Batman and Robin is one of the worst films ever made. Batman is actually the only really good one out of the bunch, although BR is fairly decent and BF has its moments, however few they may be.

have to agree. i want to add that BR is pretty brilliant.

[Ivan Drago]

Batman Returns is my favorite comic book movie ever made.

[megladon8]

New viral site - Clown Travel Agency (http://www.clowntravelagency.com/)

I imagine it's a new trailer?


Also, The Ha Ha Times (http://www.thehahahatimes.com/) has a headline reading,

"HEALTH DEPARTMENT ASSURES CITY FEAR TOXIN CONTAINS NO TRANS-FATS"

So, I imagine it's pretty much set in stone now that Scarecrow is back.

SWEET.

[Watashi]

You do know what tomorrow is?

[megladon8]

You do know what tomorrow is?


Yes, I do.

But I figure there's probably something coming.

After that second trailer was delayed, and there's been all this build-up with Harvey Dent's campaign and whatnot.

I'm just guessing it's the trailer we didn't get to see with 10,000 B.C..

[number8]

Maybe it'll be a sweded trailer.

[Ivan Drago]

Maybe it'll be...an April Fools joke.

[MadMan]

Batman Returns is the worst of the four, by far.

Corrected.

Bah!

[Grouchy]

Bah!

It's brilliant.
I've said this over and over - Batman Returns is Burton gone wild. It has zero respect for the comics and the character of Batman, but it's an expressionistic nightmare for the ages. Take it as an Elseworld story if it makes you feel more comfortable, and bask in the awesomeness.

Exactly.

I don't are about how unfaithful it is to the comics.

It's a wickedly entertaining visual feast. And perhaps Burton's most emotional film to date.

[number8]

Who cares if it's faithful or not. Batman wasn't, and it was a pretty good movie.

Returns is just ugly and boring as fuck.

[megladon8]

Wrong and wrong.

Batman is ass compared to BR.

[MadMan]

I found BR to be too damn weird, even for me. I really didn't care for the Penguin and there wasn't enough Walken. Plus I don't really think that Michelle Phifer is all that hot, although she made for a decent catwoman. As for Batman it has Jack going all out crazy which is awesome, and I think Keaton was a better Batman than Val Kilmer or George Clooney. I thought everyone agreed that Batman and Robin was the worst film of the series, hands down. Batman Begains is damn good but it takes the easy way out by being an origin story, thus proving that the creators realized how the only way to save the series was to reboot it.

[number8]

It all came down to DeVito being an awful actor period, Pfeiffer being a laughable Catwoman, Walken being forgettable, and that gothic drab look wearing thin. At least in Batman we got to see some colors during the Joker scenes. Returns' visual aesthetic puts me to sleep. Caligari, it ain't.

That entire movie is an embarrassing mess.

[megladon8]

Saying Pfeiffer is a laughable Catwoman makes my soul cry.

[EyesWideOpen]

To show how bad of a Catwoman Pfeiffer was:

Pfeiffer Catwoman = Berry Catwoman

[number8]

Berry was worse, but only because of the costume.

[EyesWideOpen]

Berry was worse, but only because of the costume.

and the slamdunking.

[Qrazy]

Saying Pfeiffer is a laughable Catwoman makes my soul cry.

Seriously, not only is Pfeiffer a bombshell, she gave probably the best performance in all four first films.

[Dukefrukem]

You guys are all wrong. They are ALL bad except for the first Batman. However, the only reason I can stand to watch Forever is because of Jim Carrey.

Batman Begins >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Batman > Batman Forever > Batman Returns > > > > > > > > Batman & Robin

[number8]

So it was an April Fool's joke.

Having Gary Oldman call up my phone was wicked cool, though.

[megladon8]

Well, that was disappointing.

I still think this is leading up to a new trailer, though.

Maybe this Friday?

[Ivan Drago]

So it was an April Fool's joke.

Pretty much every site that had those photos up has ben asked by WB to take them down.

Didn't want to say anything earlier, but yeah. One of those photos matched a scene description I read, so I knew they were real.

Holy shit.

I'm almost as excited for Batman: Gotham Knight as I am for The Dark Knight.

Did anyone else have a nerdgasm when they heard Kevin Conroy's voice?

Also, I read a summary of the animated shorts, which contained a line that definitley has me looking forward to some good "is he right in what he's doing?" moral questions...


Using an arsenal of high-tech gadgetry from Wayne Industries, Batman's ethical boundaries exist only where he chooses to place them leaving some fearful of his power.


EDIT: And I just noticed that summary was used on Stay Puft's YouTube link, as well, so you can read it all there!

DC Animation really needs to get their act together. Hopefully this is the project where they do that.

A little hoaky and the acting is pretty bad...but it's a great concept.

It's neat that Dent is never actually heard. The reactions of the cops and the citizens to his presence was much more effective, I thought, than having him speak.

[Saya]

The new trailer was shown at NYCC. It sounds great.

http://www.cinematical.com/2008/04/19/nycc-tony-starks-cameo-inthe-incredible-hulk-revealed/


UPDATE: Erik here -- new Dark Knight trailer just premiered to a thunderous applause. The trailer will be available "in about two weeks" and from what I gather it will come via the viral marketing campaign (we were told to hunt it down from here). Trailer looks great -- lots of Joker dialogue, lot more of Harvey Dent and a possible prelim glimpse at Dent's transformation into Two Face -- though we do not see Two Face in the trailer. Dent does have one awesome line in the trailer; he says, "You either die a hero or you live long enough to become the villain." Once again, we were told everyone will see the trailer in about two weeks from now. The Dark Knight arrives in theaters on July 18.

[megladon8]

It's awesome that Nestor Carbonell is playing the mayor of Gotham.

In the live-action "The Tick" TV show, he played a Batman-esque viglante called Bat Manuel.

I don't think it sucks - it's better than most movie posters out there.

But like Rowland said, it's certainly much more childish than the others. Obviously catering to the younger moviegoers.

I agree it's the weakest poster we've seen so far.


And I have to mention again that I like Batman's new armor. It almost looks like a high-tech version of the stuff you see on knights in those period piece films...which is appropriate.

[Wryan]

Fookin hell that Project Mayhem poster is godly.

I'm out of the loop. Someone tell me, briefly, when the new trailer is coming out. I'm sure people have to jump thru hoops first, but anyone know a general date?

[Silencio]

So, the countdowns only lead to more steps dealing with specific locations in order to be completed. Lame. I wonder when the trailer will be widely available, for people who have better things to do than hunt for advertising.

There's no way those seconds of complete blackness occurred at the exact same time, for the exact same stretch of time, in both trailers.

Huh, if that's the real deal about the 1989 Batman trailer, then this is fucking incredible.

I mean Dark Side of the Rainbow level of incredible. Because no fucking way are they going to pattern the new trailer after the old one. It doesn't make a lick of sense.

In any case, that was a great watch. Wish I could switch to the Batman '89 audio... The fact that I don't just raises my suspicions that it's not real.

[Silencio]

Poor quality bootleg (emphasis on poor) of the new trailer: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqzL7Fc1gqM

The previous trailer was better but Ledger's (RIP) performance is looking even more promising.

Erm I don't think so, too much similarity to be coincidence... either the original trailer/footage from the original film was edited (likely) or the new filmmakers were giving a nod to the old film.

Either way you cut it that's still a ton of similar footage... I would have hoped for a bit more disparity in shot selection from Nolan but I guess it's because both films are culled from similar source material.

There's no way those seconds of complete blackness occurred at the exact same time, for the exact same stretch of time, in both trailers.

Blackness timing isn't really the point... shot selection alone there's a ton of mimicry... I'm going to assume it's mostly a source material issue.

After a rewatch of the trailer it's not nearly as similar as I first thought (probably because of the faux pacing matchup) so... nevermind everything I just said.

The only trailer my Iron Man crowd clapped. What's funny was that no one cheered, so it was like a respectful ovation, like "Finally, a movie with dignity."

It looked especially good right after trailers for Indy 4, which nobody cared about, and The Happening, which everyone laughed at.

Thanks. Amazing stuff. Had my doubts about Eckhart as Harvey Dent, but he looks pretty confident on that trailer.

That scene with the Joker talking to all crime bosses about killing the Batman is just a classic of the comics. Even if the same scene is on Batman '89, it just had to be there.

If you pause the new trailer at the profile shot of Dent with the gun, you see they've digitally scrambled the edge of his face. They don't want you seeing even the slightest bit of his transformation.

Nope, but I believe there was talk of a scene in which

the Joker and Scarecrow / Crane meet up in a parking garage. Possibly to give Joker the fear gas? I thought it kinda looks like that scene.

Also, there was a set pic in which he was seen:


Scarecrow with his mask on.

Yes, but since he is now an escaped inmate of Arkham, he probably just wears it to conceal his identity.

Wow, you're right. Cool. I think he was also briefly seen in the Gotham Knight trailer.

And no, I don't think that Two-Face shot is digitally changed. I just think his scarred side is facing the other way.

I read this article on ComicBookResources and it featured the supposedly concept art of Two-Face. Again, it's not confirmed to be true, but they were spot on with other rumors like the Iron Man end credit scene.

If you do not want to know what he (maybe) will look like, don't watch the pic and don't click on the link because there is a thumbnail in that article. :)

CBR did a great interview with Christopher Nolan. It can be read here. (http://comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=16888)

This part has me particularly excited...


CBR: Batman is a detective. In the first film, there was a great deal of time spent explaining in very realistic detail how Batman does all these fantastic things that he does. In “The Dark Knight,” now that those things have been done, will we see Batman using his head?

Christopher Nolan: Yes. He definitely, much more easily in this story, assumes more of a detective role. That was something that was important to us to get in [“Batman Begins”]. We got it in a small way, but in dealing with the origin and dealing with all the larger aspects of the character, it became very difficult to get that in. We’re trying to get in stuff we couldn’t get into the first film, and the detective stuff is definitely one of those aspects.

[number8]

If someone’s five-year-old wants to see this film really badly, is Heath Ledger going to scare the shit out of him?

Yes, definitely. I wouldn’t take a five-year-old. I’d wait a few years.

To the parents of Match Cut. :P

[Watashi]

I think Two-Face will scare the shit out of a 5 year old more than the Joker.

I thought this was an interesting new article by Wired.

Dark Knight Director Shuns Digital Effects for the Real Thing (http://www.wired.com/entertainment/hollywood/magazine/16-07/ff_darknight?currentPage=1)


The Bat-plan was simple: Base-jump off one Hong Kong skyscraper, smash through the window of another, grab the Chinese crime boss, then hitch a drag chute to a passing C-130 cargo plane for a daring aerial escape. And on to Gotham! An instant, no-fuss extradition in the best tradition of American vigilantism. Just another working day for Batman and, presumably, just another feat of digital wizardry for the visual effects team. Except for one thing: Christopher Nolan, director of The Dark Knight, wanted to do it for real.


"So we got an Imax shot of Christian Bale as Batman standing on top of the Sears Tower," Pfister says. "Here we are with our principal actor standing on the edge of one of the tallest buildings in the world. I think a lot of people will assume that's CGI." Perhaps, but when you see the shot (featured in the first trailer), your eye instinctively detects something different, something thrilling and rare: photographic reality.


So did the director get everything he needed from Ledger before his death? He says yes: Ledger nailed it in principal photography. Thomas adds, "Everything you see onscreen is his performance." (In other words, there'll be no clunky digital resurrection, aural or visual, no morbid echoes of Oliver Reed's posthumous performance in Gladiator.) Besides, Nolan doesn't believe in bringing an actor back six months later and expecting him to re-create the nuances of a character, any more than he believes a computer can re-create the quality of human camera work on its own.

"Anything that's even vaguely funny you just can't reproduce. When there's a hint of irony or comedy ... Well, I don't make comedies, per se, but" — he chuckles — "at least I think my films are funny. Nobody else seems to think so, though."


Even before tragedy struck, Nolan was spooked by the character Ledger created. "I remember Heath calling up while I was working on the script and talking about ventriloquist's dummies, about having a voice that was high and low, and I'm on the other end going, 'Uh ... yeah.' It sounded insane, and not necessarily in the right way. But when he performed it, I was like, 'OK, I see.'

Sweet! I really like the one where Bruce and Alfred are watching the monitors. Gives me a very detective-y feeling.

[MadMan]

All of those pictures are awesome. Especially the ones featuring the Joker.

Dude I noticed in the last picture featuring Aaron Eckhart he's holding up a coin in his hand. Even though is face isn't messed up that's still very Two Face like. Interesting.

This probably only applies to you guys in big cities, but opening day showings are selling out. I missed out on midnight showing and bought tix to the Friday 8:30 one.

It's fucking selling out everywhere and it's already 3 times Spiderman 3's presale. Heads up, yo.

JPP isn't going to have an early screening?

It's called me seeing it twice.

12 film clips of the movie (http://www.iesb.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=5143&Itemid=99)

Holy shit at clip #8. :cool:

Edit: Taken down already...that was fast.

Those are too much. I quit seeing anything else. I don't want this movie spoiled.

[MadMan]

If I'm lucky my friend will get me a ticket for the midnight showing of his movie like he did with the midnight showing for Indy 4. If not, I'll probably be waiting to see this for quite a while, unless it won't sell out here. I don't really know, although it wouldn't surprise me.

CBR's review is up, and it's glowing. (http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=17013)

His face is kinda hidden in half-shadow though.

As much as I know this movie will rock and Heat Ledger looks brilliant, I don't think all this Oscar talk would be happening if he hadn't died.

Obviously not. That's so obvious my balls hurt too.

If he gets a nom I predict he'll get the win on politics alone.
