? Did you want to say something other than repeat previous quotes.

Sorry.... iPhone playing up.. Didn't mean to do that.

Bane looks like one of the gas mask wearing Gangers from Warhammer 40K.

DREDD publicity photo shots will probably still be a while in coming.

Post production on a 3D film is inevitably pretty complicated matching shots and composting etc.

So 'keep the faith' as they said in 'Blazin' Saddles.'

Judging from that pic of Bane (who I have no idea who he's supposed to be, not being a reader of Bat Man comics), it appears that the seventh Bat Man film will be a remake of 'Bum Hunter'.

Yet another villain for TDKR: http://www.metro.co.uk/film/864841-the-dark-knight-rises-matthew-modine-to-play-villain-nixon

A 'politician and key villain called Nixon'? Really? Seems a wee but heavy-handed.

Is this a character from the comics??

No idea, but it seems to be getting rather crowded. Although Nolan's is a pretty safe pair of hands I guess.

Too many characters, especially villains, seems to be the bane (no pun intended!) of superhero movie sequels. Hopefully Nolan and co will pull off the balancing act.

Well Batman Begins and The Dark Knight got many characters :-)

it very curious that Nolan always use actors that not been on films/TV for ages, as Rutger Hauer in Batman Begins, Eric Roberts in The Dark Knight and now Matthew Modine?

Just heard that [spoiler]Liam Neeson will be returning as Ras Al Ghul[/spoiler] in TDKR....

On a related note - just figured out that the title is a play on 'The Dark Knight Falls' - which is chapter 4 of The Dark Knight Returns. If they're going down that route, then 'The Dark Knight Triumphant' would have been a better title imo.

JOE SOAP · 16 June, 2011, 08:29:44 PM

I don't think the execs would believe that the general American audience would know what triumphant means...'They'd probably think it was a musical instrument'.

Really?, Tarantino made a whole career out of it.

Nolan wants to shut down a major highway in Scotland, the A9, for an "epic" stunt involving a Lockheed C-130 Hercules plane

and that:

"Batman is on board a plane that is hurtling to the ground. The script says he takes control of it and lands it on the road while it's on fire."
