IDT there is too much choice. 6pm gets you to the Midnight release.

[fernandito]

I'm doing the 7/20 - 10 A.M Matinee - IMAX showtime.

All 7/19 midnight IMAX showtimes were sold out months ago, and this was the first showing after that. I already asked for that day off weeks ago

[Ricky]

My shirt came today!

It's the theatrical poster one. With Bane and the broken mask.

Big time Congrats, Ricky!!!

[Ricky]

Clearly this is a monumental occasion in my life.

And as of right now, I believe I'm going to the 11:40am IMAX on 7/20. Woo!

[Merlin1958]

Somehow I managed to get tix for the 7/19 marathon!! Probably will only make TDK & TDKR, but what the hey??? Cool!!!

[Ricky]

Make sure you get plenty of coffee in you, Bill.

Oh, I'm taking a serious nap before showtime!!!

Spoiler:

Sucks getting old!!!! LOL My main concern is having to pee too much!!! LOL LOL

IDK about that coffee; you don't wanna have to go to the RR too much. Spoilers are out there now, guys. I've been avoiding them like the plague. Supposedly the ending has been leaked. I was thinking about Bane's possible origins. This is totally speculation, based off the pics of him with the picture of Harvey Dent.

Spoiler:

If some sort of corrupt bureaucracy is responsible for Bane's incarceration in a Pena Dura-esque place as a child, then it sort of makes him a mirror to Bruce Wayne. As a child, Bruce had his innocent worldview shattered when Chill killed his parents. If Bane were placed in a hellhole like Pena Dura, then he probably witnessed plenty of brutal prison feuds, and perhaps suffered from abuse from an older inmate.

Both would have a reason to be disgusted with any regime they percieve as being rife with corruption. The difference between these two is likely going to be in how the deal with it. Maybe this is part of what brings Bane to Gotham; the Harvey Dent coverup. I hope there's more; as I said, this is all speculation.

Edit: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand. Apparently Dave Letterman spoiled something big.

[Ricky]

Spoilers seem to be cropping up even on the non-spoiler section of Nolan Fans. I guess we have to be very careful until the 20th. Seems like they have a habit of sneaking up in places where you wouldn't think.

[fernandito]

I'm going to be avoiding a lot of the forums I normally visit until the 20th. IMDB should be a no fly zone as well. We've come too far dammit.

Oh, and

ONE MORE WEEK !

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand. Apparently Dave Letterman spoiled something big.

Yeah, I was watching last night and I really couldn't tell if he was being serious or not, even though he played it off as a joke. And Anne looked mortified once he said it.

Fuck yeah! That's awesome!

I don't know if I've ever posted these, but since there's ONE MORE WEEK, I guess it's appropriate:

[IWasSentWest]

im getting that itch. one week.

[Ricky]

Got my tickets for 7/20 11:40am IMAX!

However, I am a bit nervous. It's the first IMAX showing of the day, and I had planned on getting there an hour to an hour and a half early (per the manager's suggestion) but the girl at the ticket counter said to get there by 8:30am. I have no idea what to believe. Thoughts?

How early is everyone going to be in line before your showing starts?

[fernandito]

I have assigned seating, sooooo I'll be there 10 minutes before the movie starts

TDKR is currently sitting at a 94% fresh rating over at Rotten Tomatoes. 15/15 positive reviews. Off to a good start ...
