Plot Holes {SPOILERS}

This isn't correct. I have 3 and am <30 in very good health. Consulting with sports physiatrists, therapists, surgeons, etc. First off, we're meant to believe that his injury is far more severe that a herniated or protruded disc. Second, chiropractic therapy is quack stuff at best with little resol...

Nolan's Goodbye to Batman

This was from the foreword of the The Art and Making of The Dark Knight Trilogy book: Alfred. Gordon. Lucius. Bruce . . . Wayne. Names that have come to mean so much to me. Today, I’m three weeks from saying a final good-bye to these characters and their world. It’s my son’s ninth birthday. He was b...

Tom Hardy as Bane

However, unlike you, I don't think that randomly devalues Bane's character. It's just something in the film I preferred was handled differently. Alright fair enough if you feel that way but I didn't and I'm struggling with it. I think it's a fitting development to Bane's character and here's why Ba...

What was the last movie you watched? III

The Diving Bell and Butterfly inhabits a realm between reality and dreamscape, a place simultaneously liberating and alienating. The film chronicles the remarkably true story of Jean-Do Bauby—a once prosperous, haughty and licentious magazine editor—following a severe stroke and the consequential ef...

Hugo (2011)

After the Hype: Verdict?

Just re-watched this today and it's still extremely immersive and uniquely composed, deliberately developed and expertly crafted. My friends and I also noted quite a few homages to Kubrick--subtle yet symbolically relevant. Inception manages to be contemplative while satisfyingly entertaining. 9.75/10

What was the last movie you watched? III

What excites you people about 3D? I hate the format. I put those glasses on and I feel alienated. I'm never more immersed I just feel more like an observer. No film has ever looked right to me. It's dumb and stupid and a lame excuse to charge more money than a film is worth. Have you seen Hugo in 3...
