I prefer the realistic look of Gotham in TDK. That's why I prefer Nolan's Batman trilogy over any other Batman movie. It looks as though it could happen.
Dvader said:Its chicago, not New York. At least in the first movie they tried to make Gotham feel like a fake comic book city. in TDK its just chicago.
Good analysis, I hate your scores as usual.
It's filmed in Chicago. Gotham is Gothic New York (at least originally, right?). I was talking about the look, therefore referred to setting not location. Or was it meant to be set in fake Chicago? In which case I stand corrected. The fake comic book city was awful, though. I'm all for stylised settings, but it looked shithouse.
It's not my might fault if one of the films sucks, and the other is mediocre. Don't hate the rater, hate the films.

HBO plans on creating a Streaming service without Cable subscription
It’s also worth noting that HBO has a deal with Warner Bros. for theatrical releases. One such release is Man of Steel, touted at the shareholder meeting for being viewed by HBO subscribers over 20 million times. With numbers like that, it’s not too hard to imagine that HBO’s new over-the-top service will be streaming home for Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Wonder Woman, Justice League, and all of the other DC Entertainment movies that Warner Bros.
Makes sense. Starz has a deal with Disney to play their movies including the Marvel flicks. I watched my share of Man of Steel on HBO.
Thinking about this, HBO could provide a better deal than Netflix. I think of their programming as being of higher quality.
HBO doesn't really need the WB deal since HBO is a division of Warner Bros. The deal is just so they can have it on the streaming service.
We watched The Drop in the cinema last Friday. Didn't really know what to expect, but I ended up liking it very much. Tom Hardy is such an amazing actor. I had only seen him in Inception, and as Bane in Batman Rises. He's the main character in this movie, and it's so different from those other parts I've seen him play. Blows my mind.
The movie is very clever as well. It shows that the director is Belgian though. Belgian films often focus on smaller stories. There's too little explosions or shooting in this game for it to be a true Hollywood production.
They ate Bob's leg....oh my fucking word they ate Bob's leg!!

The Dark Knight is by far my favorite. The greatest superhero movie ever made bar none and one of my top 10 films of all time.
So weirdly I saw the Constatine pilot on Amazon, where it's not even on broadcast tv yet. It was sort of okay but... holy.. what the? The lead actor is Edward Kenway from Assassins Creed 4. All I keep hearing is slightly Welsh pirate voice and it's very distracting, as is the blone hair mixed with black stubble beard.

They wanted him to play John Constantine even though he didn't look the part when he auditioned he had long black hair and a full beard. It was for another part he was doing at the time. Goyer liked his performance so much that he sabotageed the other auditions so Matt Ryan would get the part. When his other part was done he cut and dyed his hair.
The first episode aired the US this past Friday. I liked it I knew they had to change it to make Liv leave since she originally was going to stay but the producers didn't like where her character was going so they wrote her out of the show.
I hope it builds. Supernatural scratches my demonic itch at the moment.
But the Edward Kenway voice... I don't know if I'll be able to get over it.
David S Goyer is working on a Krypton TV series
WB is already working on a Supergirl series. Goyer and WB are going to be making a series about what life on Krypton was like before it was destroyed.
For Kara Zor-El aka Kara Danvers, the show is eyeing Caucasian females, age 22 to 26, to play 24. As the series’ mythology goes, Kara at age 12 was sent from her dying home planet of Krypton to Earth, where she was taken in by the Danvers, a foster family who taught her to be careful with her extraordinary powers. After repressing said skills for more than a decade, Kara is forced to bust out her super moves in public during an unexpected disaster. Energized by her heroism for the first time in her life, she begins embracing her abilities in the name of helping the people of her city, earning herself a super moniker along the way.
The other lead role currently being cast is that of 26-year-old Alexandra “Alex” Danvers, Kara’s gorgeous, brilliant, science-minded foster sister. Growing up, Alex was partly jealous of her sibling yet also fascinated by her abilities, prompting Alex to learn as much as she could about alien anthropology, sociology and culture. Today, Alex works for a secret government organization and, alongside her heroic sis, will face many challenges, both mundane and super.
More Supergirl casting information
CAT GRANT | The project is eyeing females in their 40s, open ethnicity, to play the founder of CatCo, a media conglomerate that Cat built from the ground up. Kara (Supergirl’s mild-mannered alter ego) will work as a personal assistant to Cat, who is described as “J.Lo by way of Anna Wintour.”
JAMES OLSEN | In his late 20s/early 30s, open ethnicity, James is a smart, worldly and (duh) attractive photographer for CatCo. Though an alpha male, his salt-of-the-earth nature elicits a huge ol’ crush from Kara.
WINSLOW ‘WYNN’ SCHOTT | This twentysomething tech whiz/Comic-Con stalwart toils for CatCo as a programmer, unaware of his own (toying?) potential. Unware of her secret, he carries a torch for Kara, whom he lives next door to.
HANK HENSHAW | As an upstart CIA agent, Hank grew obsessed with intergalactic intel. Now in his 40s and lording over the DEO (Department of Extra-Normal Operations), he is on high alert when Supergirl reveals herself, worried that her otherworldly abilities pose a threat to humankind.
Its chicago, not New York. At least in the first movie they tried to make Gotham feel like a fake comic book city. in TDK its just chicago.
