I think the United States and the Taliban could work out a decent solution. If you bomb movie theaters playing Twilight, we'll pull out of Afghanistan. Something like that. It's a win-win scenario, really.

The whole movie induces vomiting anyway

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Quote:
Twilight movie Breaking Dawn Part 1 blamed for seizures

by: Staff writer From: AAP November 28, 2011

WATCHING the vampire movie Twilight: Breaking Dawn may be bad for your health.

According to US reports, a graphic scene in which heroine Bella Swan gives birth to a human-vampire hybrid has sparked seizures in audience members, causing some to black out and have trouble breathing.

CBS Sacramento reported that a local theatre had to cancel a screening of the movie when Brandon Gephart suddenly started convulsing during the scene and had to be rushed to the emergency room by paramedics.

A similar incident occurred during a Utah screening in which a man who had no history of seizures blacked out.

Medical experts said a lighting effect in the scene, in which red, black and white strobe lights are used, could trigger episodes of photosensitive epilepsy in people who are genetically predisposed.

"It's like a light switch going off, because it hits your brain all at once," Dr Michael Chez told CBS Sacramento.

Similar effects were noted in 1990 when the Pokemon movie sparked epileptic attacks in some young viewers, while several people were reported to have passed out during a gruesome scene in 2010's 127 Hours.

I was surprised at how it's mostly done through the documentary style. It worked well for mine.

For those into the thriller/horror genre, a good scare of a movie is Grave Encounters.
First movie since I was about 5 years old that has shaken me up.

On the topic, am looking forward to 'Rec 3', I found the first 2 movies decent. Highly recommended viewing

IIRC John Blake was the guy who betrays Gordon?

Hardy's significantly bigger in the muscle suit in the first image than in the second one.

Re: The possibly death of batman, I see it as more likely that he ends up incarcerated somehow.

From Wiki

Joseph Gordon-Levitt as John Blake, "a Gotham City beat cop assigned to special duty under the command of Commissioner Gordon

Gordon building his team of uncorruptables I'd say.

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

How do you figure that? He's only made a handful of movies; Batman being his only film series to date.

What I meant to say was he strikes me as the type of person who knows when to stop making movies. Missed out a few words for some reason. My bad.

From what I've read on other fan sites, forums and sci fi blogs, Bane is to be connected to Ra al Ghul as a former student tuerned master destroyer in the vaine of what RAG had planned for Wayne in the original film.

I doubt he is to be an Anti Hero though, I'm yet to see an Anti hero who takes pleasure in systematically crushing people. But who Knows. We'll have to wait until next year for the answers.

You can if there's some sort of moral victory or vindication.

Nolan has already said it would be a bit of an insult to Ledger if they had the Joker in the film, so I think we can rule out that. I've heard JG-L is playing a cop of some sort.

As Marconi said, this will be the last Nolan Batman film. The guy knows when to stop making movies.

Wikipedia tells me Neeson is in it for flashbacks. I don't think he would have survived. Doesn't sound like a Nolan thing to do, bringing him back from the dead.

I don't think Batman will die, but I also don't believe it will be a happy ending.

So with the whole Dark night rises story arc, it appears to me that after the results of The Dark Knight, Bruce puts the bat mask and cape in to cold storage and stops training and focuses on being Bruce Wayne for 8 year's (wife, kid's, expanded wayne enterprises to start encrouching on Metropolis).

Some big bad goes down and the Sociopath Bane starts taking apart Goatham. Wayne reluctantly "rises" again to fight the forces of evil only with the added issue of having the entire Goatham Police force after him for the death of District attorney Harvey Dent (who should have survived and been an awesome twoface Momento style).


Newer toys and boardering on crazy technology to add to the spectacular. bane gaining the upper hand for the main 2/3 of the film before Wayne figures out that by removing his access to the "Venom" gas (if that's what they're going to still use) he can defeat Bane. A quick clearing of Batmans name and credits roles.

Thus closing the door on the Dark knight franchise ready for a reboot in 5 years time with????............................................................................. Frankie Muniz as Bruce wayne :lol:
