Christopher's Dark Knight came to us at the beginning. It was rocky start, but it managed to take everyone by surprise. The nasty aftertaste from the previous movies was washed away, and hope had returned to our hearts.
A new movie was then made, and it proved to be one of the superhero movies that changed the genre. The Dark Knight was amazing, and deserved to have gotten an Oscar. Alas, it wasn't meant to be.
And now ... the Dark Knight Rises yet again, in the last of the Nolan movies.
"Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Pictures' "The Dark Knight Rises" is the epic conclusion to filmmaker Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy, Leading an all-star international cast, Oscar(R) winner Christian Bale ("The Fighter") again plays the dual role of Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film also stars Anne Hathaway, as Selina Kyle; Tom Hardy, as Bane; Oscar(R) winner Marion Cotillard ("La Vie en Rose"), as Miranda Tate; and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, as John Blake. Returning to the main cast, Oscar(R) winner Michael Caine ("The Cider House Rules") plays Alfred; Gary Oldman is Commissioner Gordon; and Oscar(R) winner Morgan Freeman ("Million Dollar Baby") reprises the role of Lucius Fox. The screenplay is written by Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan, story by Christopher Nolan & David S. Goyer. The film is produced by Emma Thomas, Christopher Nolan and Charles Roven, who previously teamed on "Batman Begins" and the record-breaking blockbuster "The Dark Knight." The executive producers are Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan, Kevin De La Noy and Thomas Tull, with Jordan Goldberg serving as co-producer. The film is based upon characters appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. Batman was created by Bob Kane."
The trailer has been on the net in one form or another for some time now. Unofficial to the single last one. And I, for one, am glad to have waited for the official version that wasn't shot in shittyvision. Once again, the movie promises to deliver on all sides. It offers drama, action, character development and amazing set pieces. All in all, a fantastic movie to look forward to.
