[spoiler]Did the ending remind anybody else of Inception? The whole 'was it a dream' or 'was it real-life' debacle? In any case, there's no way in hell Bruce Wayne would have survived a nuclear blast. Just no f**king way, so what Alfred is seeing must obviously be a dream. Right? RIGHT?[/spoiler]

A dream!! I think you need to watch the ending again made perfect sense.....

A solid 8 out of 10 for me (there has to be a 4th)

Film was awesome, very engrossing!
I agree with everyone on Bane, good & bad. I did find him hard to understand sometimes & even a little camp! :) ...but still one of the best 'villians' of any film I've seen!

i'm so happy to have seen this film. it was worth waiting so god damn long for. i feel a little sad that we won't have any more but perhaps we might see Robin branch out on his own now? ( it could be interesting though not sure it would be quite as entertaining or outstanding?)

can not wait to see this again. i want to watch all three in a row that's what i need!

The volume was fine at Swiss Cottage unlike what we had to put up with at O2 in the past but I found the dialogue muffled and not that easy to catch but then again I am ancient. We had a bit of a worry at the start as the SKY rep said he knew nothing about the SFF tickets and it was just a SKY screening but then relented and everyone got in. At one point they held back some people whose names didn't match the tickets but I think they all got in finally. Oddly though, some guy came in around 90 minutes through the screening and slowly came down our row with his mobile flashlight on. He claimed that he had a ticket for son David's seat and proceeded to make a fuss so we missed a bit of the film. I told him to get lost as this was a private preview screening and no tickets were issued. It was very bizarre and we still have no idea what happened to him as he moved down the rest of the row-- torch still on--disturbing everyone. So much for the security! David and his friends all raved about the film and I have received lots of kudos for arranging their tickets. I quite enjoyed it too though not to the enthusiastic acclaim given by them.

having said that, there's no way that stupid thing could have flown anyway. Then again, it was a cartoon helicopter.

No I heard that, but what does that mean?[spoiler]He bailed 10 seconds second before the bomb went off? We're talking about a nuclear bomb here. And was that a sheer co-incidence that out of the thousand cafes in Florence, Alfred managed to spot him gallivanting with Selina?[/spoiler]I don't know man...doesn't gel.

And what was that daft costume that Bane was wearing? He looked more like something out of Gladiator. He must have been frozen as it was winter!

[spoiler]Especially since I thought Alfred told him the story was in Florence. Did I misheard? Perhaps he described it pretty well for Bruce to know exactly where he goes and thus being there for him to see.[/spoiler]

Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.
