Even though The Amazing Spider-Man was #1 at the box office this weekend, it will quickly (July 20) take a back seat to the summer's biggest blockbuster The Dark Knight Rises. And in case you haven't had enough yet, now you can see some behind the scenes footage from the final film in the trilogy.
The whole concept of a "secret identity"has always been a bit ridiculous...right? Superman's may be the worst. Really, you just put on some glasses and took the curl out of your hair and all of the sudden you look like a totally different person? Really?
I dare you to name a movie this summer that is more anticipated, or expected to make more money than The Dark Knight Rises. This weekend's The Avengers may be the closest thing...but I'm afraid the final film in Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy is going to dominate the box office for a long time.
Its another 6 months before the latest installment of director Christopher Nolan's Batman. However, tickets for midnight showings are already gone!
I am a little partial to the Michelle Pheifer version and obviously Halle Berry's take on it (albeit from an atrocious movie) but Anne Hathaway is doing it justice as well.
At least I assume she is...
Just to be nice (and not be all spoilerish) I will give you the setup to the scene after the jump
When I went to see Captain America this past weekend, I also caught the trailer for the final installment of the Christopher Nolan directed Batman series. There was also a terrible preview for some movie called War Horse, that made me laugh out loud in the theater. But I'm not here to talk about that piece of trash.
A teaser for Christopher Nolan's Batman threequel 'The Dark Knight Rises' is expected to play before 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2' on Friday, but that hasn't stopped the internet from leaking it a few days early.
Let's face it, Batman has changed a lot since the 1960s. Bruce Wayne has become darker and the costumes are becoming disturbingly more detailed (but it's still way better than spandex.) And certain questions have begun to arise: If Batman is so good, why do criminals keep escaping? How is Batman paying for all of his gadgets? How good of a businessman is Bruce Wayne, REALLY? One thing is for sure: he is one hell of a philanthropist.
In a video circulating the Internet this week, a man dressed as Batman engaged in what began as a bit of playful street theater with a non-costumed rival on the Vegas strip
But soon, faux-punches turned to real ones, and the two slugged it out in front of a crowd of onlookers. It didn't end well for Batman, who was ultimately body slammed and then hit with a barrage of blows as he lay helpless on the ground.
