A 13-Minute The Dark Knight Rises Behind The Scenes Featurette

Of course these type of things are basically long-winded commercials for the film, but…

• Chris Nolan sketching a chalk bat-sign on the set is awesome
• Tom Hardy confessing he felt like a kid watching Batman strut around in his costume is awesome
• The Nolan brothers ‘get’ the Batman/Bruce Wayne character better than any movie director ever did (yeah, eff those Burton flicks. Crazily overrated. Basically awesome set design covering up an empty story) and their track record is awesome

Check out the featurette and get the veil slightly lifted on some story beats and amazing stunts, like the Pittsburgh Steelers Gotham Rogues field being blown up in-game and guys hanging from a plane shooting stuff (!). If this doesn’t get you excited I don’t know what to tell you. Enjoy streaming Bridget Jones Diary on Netflix, maybe?

J.Monkey

1982 was when Jaap van der Doelen aka J.Monkey shot his way out his mom dukes. A mere two years later he was already battling Big Brother and The Illuminati. Whenever he has time to spare from those efforts he writes (about music, mostly), hosts a radio show and designs graphics for a living. He lives in The Netherlands where he continues to be winning.
