Taping of Spike Guys Choice Awards.

What a great looking pair.

Damn you watermarks

Don't worry, bro. I'm something of a photoshop wizard. I went ahead and edited the watermark off.

Was the review terribly revealing, or did you merely admire it for its anticipation-building merits?

I, for one, am going to avoid reviews like the plague. I will look at the number of stars Coming Soon and IGN give it, and the tomato-meter or whatever. I will read no criticism until afterward.

Are you referring to the review for The Dark Knight or Inception? Either way, I'll let you be the judge of how spoiler-free they are/aren't.

I wish I could avoid being spoiled, but the reviews are part of the fun and build-up for me. Besides, just being active on this forum has exposed me to way more spoilers than I've ever encountered in a review. It just sucks when reviewers treat everything they've seen as common knowledge and don't realize that even a relatively insignificant spoiler is still a spoiler. By giving even a small detail away, that alters your experience of watching the movie. Other than the trailers and reading the occasional article on IGN, I knew very little going into The Dark Knight. This time is much different for me. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how long The Dark Knight Rises stays at 100% on rottentomatoes. I guess until Armond White posts his review.

Just by reading the first paragraph of his TDK review I can tell I won't be reading his review until the 20th of July. I would not have wanted to read the "You complete me" line before seeing it performed by Ledger. That line had me half-disgusted, half-laughing. Perfect cinema, and nobody can have done the scene's justice.

Is it a good sign that TDKR is winning the same award that "Cowboys and Aliens" won the year before at GCA?

TDK, Inception were also awarded the same. This is nothing new.

He gave both Inception and The Dark Knight ***1/2 out of ****, which didn't say a lot at the time, but mean a lot to me now. The Dark Knight Rises needs four stars from him for me to have that same level of ridiculous expectation that I had when I saw Inception.

Not sure if this has been posted earlier but now we have confirmed runtime for TDKR I guess!

I'm sure this is what we'd all like to see...

I'd like to unsee that horrible poster.
