The Dark Knight Rises (Post-Release Discussion)

There were a couple times I couldn't understand Bane, but for the most part it was fine. However, when you're making a film like this, all dialogue should be understandable.

I really really liked it, but that's all. I can't say anything more about it. Some of it dragged on too long, could've been cut down, etc. Great finale though, and a fitting end to the series.

i don't really remember, but did we actually see him flying the bat to the coast? i thought he might've jumped to the roof of the buildings, tbh. though if we did see the sequence of him hovering over the sea then i basically raised a null point

There's a closeup of his face as he's flying, but I don't remember if that's shown before he's way over the sea or after it.

Couple of points, BlackLabel...First, Zack Snyder is an accomplished director in his own right, so I don't think he needs any "training" from Nolan...second, I think Nolan being listed as a producer on The Man of Steel is being done simply to add another tier of credibility to the Superman reboot. Producers tend to have far less creative input in films than directors; this seems to be more of a name recognition type thing.

The thing that makes me unsure of that is that Nolan isn't an Executive Producer, he's listed as an actual Producer. Producers have a ton to do with the film, and Nolan and Goyer also figured out the story together. I would guess that Nolan wasn't on set during filming or anything and left the on-set producer jobs to the other producers, but I'm wondering now how much involvement he had with the film and what he did to help. If they just wanted the name value, he probably would have been listed as an Executive Producer.
