Re: The ending, a different intepretation

princeOgotham, you made me think of something I else I may not have been clear about .. George, your assumptions are completely cool if that's what you think.. I want to be clear about that.. I think the only thing I'm really disputing, in my ramblings, are that those assumptions are evident in the ...

Re: The ending, a different intepretation

My point was that to the plot and the twist trick it wasn't important really if it's a clone or a real brother. I disagree with the notion that it doesn't matter whether Borden is a set of twins or a set of clones. It degrades the themes and characters in the film if Borden is not a set of twins. B...

Re: The ending, a different intepretation

It kind of does tho with such assumptions we're starting to reach beyond what's really related or important for the movie. My point was that to the plot and the twist trick it wasn't important really if it's a clone or a real brother. All that was essential was that he used him as a double. The nex...

Re: The ending, a different intepretation

EDIT: As for who else got a Tesla machine -> I'm not really sure it was Borden because I'm not sure how he would pay for it. He knew what his trick will be from the begining and he was poor then. Therefore his brother can't be a clone and he never really buy a real machine. Well he bought that elec...

Re: The ending, a different intepretation

First off, I still think that the notion of whether one of the Bordens is a twin or a clone is vague. I have no problem with anyone who thinks of it either way. I myself have gone back and forth quite a bit. In the book, it's very clear, and I won't spoil that by telling you which. But I think that'...

Re: Gotham City (Thoughts on Batman 3)

I'll just say that I think B3 is going to go down the road of some sort of a journey toward public redemption for Batman. The last one deal with escalation and then Gotham City showed that its changing for the better with Batman's help.. what effect does his anti-hero perception have to do with what...

Re: Book versus Film

i read it. film is wayy better because the prestige in the film is reveling the way they both did the transported man. the book doesnt do that That's what makes Nolan's take on the novel so brilliant. He changes the whole nature of the story to fit the film medium. And as many have said before, the...

Re: Jude Law

The timing seems a little off. The Prestige was filmed in early 2006. Huckabees was filmed in mid 2003. That doesn't appear to be a conflict. Was it another movie Nolan was prepping prior to BB and he got pulled off by Warner Bros.? Was it Batman Begins he was rumored and/or cast in? (still, BB was ...

I'm not an expert in accents, but it seemed to me that Hardy kept his "dirty" English accent for the film, and that's good :D
Actually, I'm pretty sure it's an Irish accent.
