The Houston Astros cheated Major League Baseball from 2017-18!!!! Is that how we teach our kids to play the game now?????
No worries sir!
Also, just came across this on IGN:
The Dark Knight Rises : What's the Harvey Dent Act ?
A letter from Lucius Fox to Bruce Wayne expressing his concern about a possible interference from the Board of Directors ...
-----
Dear Bruce,
I hope this letter finds you well. Although I would have liked to have had this conversation with you personally, Alfred tells me I am better off writing as you are not receiving any visitors at the moment. That being the case, I’ll do my best to detail what I feel is becoming a situation within the company.
It’s a given that in the current economic climate our investors have become increasingly concerned about how their money is being spent. As such, our own profitability is being judged and analyzed, particularly by the Board itself. In the past, we haven’t given them any reason to worry as both our earnings and spending have been consistent. This allowed us the autonomy to dedicate resources to Wayne philanthropic programs as well as our own R&D endeavors. But over the past five quarters, our earnings have been on the downtrend. Meanwhile, our R&D spending has been on an astronomical uptrend. And as the black grows fainter around the entire company, I am being put into a position where I have to answer certain questions, particularly about your energy project.
No one is going to dispute the fact that innovation is key to our growth and success. It’s a mainstay of our business, which is all the more reason why the Board has begun to scrutinize our R&D budget and set their sights on your machine. Since they don’t know exactly what you’re up to, all they understand is a vast amount of capital is being spent on something they now deem as fruitless – quest for clean energy. Herein lies the problem.
The last time we spoke, you expressed your reluctance to move the project forward and initiate the next phase of trials. I understand your argument as to why. But if you want the company to continue to fund your efforts, I think it is time we give the Board more than just the overview they already have, enlightening them on what this project will mean to Gotham if you are successful. On a personal note, I’d also like to let them know that with age, Bruce Wayne has decided to fill his father’s shoes, using Wayne Enterprises and all its resources to readily and reliably support our city.
Nothing bad can come from this, Bruce. But if you decide not to address the issue at hand, I am not sure how long I can keep the Board at bay. Making matters more difficult is your absence. I am assuming you have your reasons for it and it is not my job to question those, but I fear that if you are going to drop off the radar for an extended period of time, we may risk another Bill Earle situation. I can see a couple [of] Board Members already maneuvering to build influence around the table, most notably John Daggett, who I feel is the last person we want to engage in a power struggle.
When I agreed to take on this role I knew full well what the job and our agreement entailed. I am also well aware of your preferred ways of handling all matters relating to Wayne Enterprises However, I must tell you that we are quickly approaching a set of circumstances that will unfortunately call for a change if we do not address the Board. Change in most instances is not a bad thing, but in this regard I am worried. I’m sure you consider my pessimism to be just another part of my charm. That may be the case, but let’s remember: you didn’t hire me for my charm.
I look forward to hearing from you.
With luck it will be in person.
Regards,
Lucius Fox

People are always talking about truth.Everybody knows what the truth is,like it was toilet paper or somethin...All there is is bull*...One layer of bullshit on top of another...what you do in life...pick the layer of bull* that you prefer...
Well that's the challenge, innit? Not to get so hyped up to the point that it would be impossible for the film to meet those lofty expectations.
They're making it very, very tough for us though, aren't they ? It's hard not to squeeee a bit with all of these awesome images/tv spots/trailers.
And the quality of the previous two films. Of course, unlike Prometheus, this definitely has a better chance of matching as close to those expectations as possible. Mainly because, unlike Scott, Nolan hasn't spent ten years making fairly, but not totally, "meh" movies. They have, in fact, generally been bloody brilliant. Yeah, this is gonna be awesome.
Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.
You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me. - Melike
Found these amazing pics on tumblr. Advertising done right!
Oooooh! That will be a nice addition to my gif collection.

In the Empire magazine from November 2011, the interview with either Chris or Emma stated that they had this story pinned down as of Fall-Winter 2008. As far as Hollywood making things bad--REALLY bad, like halfassing realism with more fantastic elements--look at Dragonball Evolution. So it does happen, but I think WB is confident about giving Chris creative control after The Dark Knight and Inception.
So did anyone check out that Rykin website? Seems like they've got something Bane could be interested in...
True, but that doesn't mean they haven't tried to weasel in a few things. They wanted Nolan to shoot TDKR for a 3D release, but he was vehemently against it.
They also wanted him to cast DiCaprio as The Riddler. He's the third most popular villian behind Joker and Two Face, but Nolan said "LOL NOPE".
Does anyone have any idea of the score's title that plays in the Nokia trailer? I love it and can't remember it matching any samples I've listened to.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
There's one hole in every revolution, large or small. And it's one word long.. people. No matter how big the idea they all stand under, people are small and weak and cheap and frightened. It's people that kill every revolution.
Does anyone have a general cliff's notes plot on this movie yet? I can't find much of anything besides random speculation.
Have you tried browsing the youtube comments? There's usually one or two users that post stuff like that up.
I would love to see a modern day interpretation of The Riddler. Hopefully he won't be reduced to a Joker rehash like in Batman Forever.
All we have at this point is speculation and a few snippits of clues from the Nolan brothers. We do know that this will be more of a 'war film' whereas TDK was more of a crime film.
I think I did look through the comments, feev, but didn't see any track listings.
As for the "war" angle of the film, I'm really hoping that it's done well, rather than a series of fights and explosions and riots. I guess that's the pessimistic side of me coming out since we really don't have too many plot details to go on just yet to judge how the film's going to be structured.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
I have a hard time getting up for this movie. I did like the first movie, but not the 2nd. Not a real fan of what Nolan has done with the franchise overall.

I didn't say I wasn't interested, just not really getting too hyped up for it. As a batman fan I'm interested in what the plot of the movie is. The Knightfall series in the comic was pretty good, I'd like to see the movie follow that. And yeah, I know I'm not typical with my opinion on the last movie. But I thought the first movie was fabulous.
