Another point: Selina has some echoes of Batman: Year One, which were nice to spot.

I actually want to see this again, but I will wait for the DVD release.
Might even buy the inevitable Trilogy boxset with extended cuts.


Also, this is pretty cool:



EDIT: I forgot that I wanted to bring up some points from previous posts.

The perfect mimic theory, while interesting, does not really fit.
And if we were to choose a more recent, realistic character to pull it off, I believe Jane Doe would trump Clayface.

As for where is the Pit, it was filmed in India, but it's never specified (as far as I remember) where it actually is. Although I guess India is closer to the League of Shadows' HQ, so maybe more towards that option. But then again, as Shadowman said, the chant is in Arabic so maybe not (although this could just be because of the prisoners' language, rather than the location).

It was funny when they did that for Twilight. Turns out, tearing apart a good movie isn't nearly as funny. Especially when they have to ignore plot points or make up entirely new plot holes just to do it.

Or, alternatively, enjoy humor.

I don't enjoy lame humor, though, that's the problem.

I thought that was really well done actually!

Got me laughing for a while, and some points are real genius.


Poking fun at something good does work for me. I actually want to watch it again even more now.

I actually sound a lot like Cinema Snob, if he was played by that kid from Almost Famous...

...that's not a whole lot better, is it?
