‘The Dark Knight Rises’ To The League of Shadows?

I would love a sense of finality and completeness but don't forget, Lucas brought the Death Star II back in RotJ and that was just a bad, bad idea... I'm all for The League of Shadows returning... but not in the manner this rumor suggests. If the League does come back it should be led by Bane himse...

What flaws do you see in The Dark Knight?

That's a really good point and I'll admit my Cameron comparison is a flawed one, but even so, Nolan freeing the camera would dramatically increase the potential and enjoyment of his action scenes, which honestly, I enjoy a lot to begin with. Nolan's my favorite working director, don't get me wrong,...

What flaws do you see in The Dark Knight?

That's what they attempted to do in TDK because of the nature of the IMAX camera system. They let shots rest longer, but it still doesn't solve some of the issues. I'm a cinematographer so it could be why I'm harsher on these films than you all, perfect example of the muddiness I speak of is the ro...

What flaws do you see in The Dark Knight?

I think a lot of this is that Nolan's greatest flaw as a director, along with Wally's as a DP, is that they have almost this anxious control of the camera, and they don't let it go where it should as the scene should dictate. This was dramatically improved with Inception, but overall... look at the ...

Inception 3D???

If done properly, it adds an immeasurable depth to the picture. Once the tech catches up with its ambitions, I fully support 3D 100%. Yep. The same immeasurable depth as a pop-up book. I've yet to see a 3D film that actually accomplished depth in the way most people perceive reality. This includes ...

The INCEPTION Award Season Discussion Thread

A lot of people are so shocked when I say that. I have no idea why people are so in love with it. I've seen the first one twice, and I barely remember what happened in it. It was long, tedious, and boring. I didn't care about the characters, no idea what the plot/story was...and...well, I can't rem...

The INCEPTION Award Season Discussion Thread

Are they? I've only seen praise for it, and I've read a lot about the film. Who has said anything negative? Am I supposed to link to hundreds of different posts and sites here? Just because you haven't seen it wherever you happen to spend your time doesn't mean it doesn't exist. To make things easi...
