Our Dark Duo team up to take down the bookend Batman film, The Dark Knight Rises. Alex can't choose between his own voice and Bane's. Ryan's mic couldn't choose when to record. Neither couldn't help from loving and nitpicking the film. Listen as we takle DC's big movie release of the year.



SPOILERS, DUH!

The more I thought about Dark Knight Rising, the less I liked it (and even watching it I thought was "good not great").

For example:

Batman disappears, Bruce Wayne goes into seclusion....Batman returns, Bruce Wayne shows up....and no one makes the connection?

Exactly what were they waiting for to blow up Gotham? You're really going to wait 3 months for the "perfect moment"? Why not blow it when you see the Batman logo burning on the bridge?

A major U.S. city is held hostage...you send in one lame squad who gets killed...then you give up?

What NFL game is half full? Was it pre-season game?

Etc, etc.

Of course, I had problems with Dark Knight too...specifically the ending. The Joker was on a rampage and there are a few extra dead that Harvey Dent caused....so instead of blaming the Joker which no one would question, you need to pin it on the Batman?

Anyway, your review show was pretty good.

Stop making logical questions and points!

Then there is the mystery missing scene after Miranda was taken by Bane then the next scene she was up in Wayne Enterprises with Lucius and everyone else. That was a major editing flaw anyone who doesn't see this movie in the theater will most likely miss it cause itll be fixed in the DVD.

Stop doing logical points?

OK...so you probably don't want to hear about in Rises when they take over the stock exchange and do one transaction which happens to bankrupt Bruce Wayne.

And that's not going to be reversed immediately?
