To all of you who are seeing this at midnight/have already seen it, I just want to say that I hate you. I won't get to see it until maybe Sunday night. Hopefully, I can avoid spoilers....

I got my ticket to see it tomorrow at 10:30 in the morning, I'm very excited.
Not quite sure how early I should be there cuz of the line-- maybe an hour or 2?
I've never been to a movie the day it opens in a related note.

Sad that I won't get to see this until Monday.
Having said that, it says a lot about my attention span that I am somewhat dreading this movie due to its length.

It's 12:20, I'm in the theatre and the f***ing projector isn't working >:-( You get a free pass, yet? When I saw Revenge Of The Sith at the midnight premiere, the movie skipped the opening crawl, people complained, they stopped the movie, gave everyone free passes, and then started the movie over from the very beginning.

Nope, nothin yet. And if they don't show the Man of Steel trailer cause of this I'm gonna be pissed And it still hasn't started! EDIT: We've been moved to a new theatre. Still hasn't started

Does anyone really need to buy advanced tickets to a movie anymore? In my 30 years of life i've never had to buy an advanced ticket to get into a movie regardless of how big the movie is.

I can't wait to see it tomorrow. This is it, the end of the best 7 year span I've ever experienced as a Bat-fan.
The tally:
- 2 animated TV shows(The Batman and Batman: The Brave and the Bold) - 3 live action films(Begins, Dark Knight, Dark Knight Rises) - 5 non-movie tie-in video games(Arkham Asylum, Arkham City, LEGO Batman, LEGO Batman 2, and the Batman: The Brave and the Bold game) - 6 animated movies(Batman: Gotham Knight, Superman/Batman: Public Enemies, Batman: Under the Red Hood, Batman: Year One, Justice League: Doom, and the upcoming two-part adaptation of Batman: The Dark Knight Returns)
I honestly don't know if we'll ever get a span of quality Bat-entertainment quite like that ever again.

Oh, and I'm seeing the movie in IMAX tomorrow......FOR FREE. How? Well thanks to Fandango and the AMC Theatres Stubs program. See Fandango has a bunch of partnership programs that if you sign up for one, you get a free movie ticket(I used this method prior, to get the ticket for my first viewing of The Avengers for free), all you have to do is pay Fandango's processing/convenience fee, which is usually around a dollar. So I just signed up for another one of their partnership programs, this time it was Disney's Blu-Ray Movie Club, and part of signing up for that was I was allowed to select 3 Blu-Ray films from a list of movies and it only cost me $2 per film, as the shipping and handling are free for this initial batch of 3. So with that I picked A Bug's Life 2-disc collector's edition, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides, and Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind 2-disc edition. So I put my free movie ticket code towards an IMAX showing of TDKR, and at the same time I put in my mother's AMC Stubs card number(so she would get the reward points for me buying the ticket), and to my surprise, the AMC Stubs card took care of Fandango's convenience charge! So I'm going to see The Dark Knight Rises in IMAX 3D early tomorrow afternoon, and I got 3 Blu-Ray films all for $6! I f***ing love Fandango, btw.

Seeing the trilogy in IMAX was probably the best movie experience of my life, just throwing that out there. TDKRises was already really, really good.

You forgot Superman/Batman: Apocalypse.

Just saw it. Great, great movie. My theater was really shitty though so we started late with just 2 trailers nothing memorable.

This movie was really, REALLY, great. To anyone who hasn't seen it, I'd advise seeing it as soon as possible.

Just got back seeing a midnight showing, and it was a satisying conclusion to the trilogy. I still The Dark Knight was the best, however this movie was very good. The first 30 or so mintues weren't quite working with me with all the character's plot and story, but once we get to the {Spoiler}sewer fight with Bane and Batman , the movie picked up and didn't let go. It felt as big and epic as The Avengers. I also liked how much they reference the other 2 movies, really driving the fact that this is the conclusion. I also loved the twist with {Spoiler}Miranda Tate actually Talia al Ghul, Ra's daughter The movie ended very nicely on a how note with {Spoiler}Bruce dating Selina now moved past his life at Batman/Wayne in Gotham . I course I can't go without mentioning that {Spoiler}Joseph Gordan-Levitt's character, John Blake, actual name is Robin. Nice nod which I suprisingly dind't find cheesy Overall, Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy has to be considered one of the best along with Toy Story, Back To The Future, and Star Wars. A worthy ending to the trilogy.

Just saw it. Great, great movie. My theater was really s***ty though so we started late with just 2 trailers nothing memorable. Eh, the only trailer that really interested me was Man of Steel. Other than that we got The Watch, some Tom Cruise action movie, something called Gangster Squad, and a Bourne Legacy trailer. I THINK that's it. As for the movie itself... {Spoiler}With so many twists that Nolan threw, I honestly did NOT expect him to actually bring Talia into the fold.
...although am I the only one sick of Bat-villains dying in these movies? So far as we know, only two villains that lived were Scarecrow (loved his part as the judge) and The Joker (why didn't they give him at least SOME mention, considering the havoc that he caused 8 years prior?).
Other than that...yeah, it was different than the normal Batman movie, but that's a GOOD thing. It had big shoes to fill with The Dark Knight, so it's good it didn't try to copy it.
However, I do feel sorry for the next generation of Bat-Films.
...also, Anne Hathaway was hot as Catwoman (at least to me).

Just got back, theater was packed and sold out, we had 6 seats to my crew and navigating that was terrible. Anyway {Spoiler}I absolutely love Nolans rendition of Bane, he stole the show to me, fantastic performance. I will take the avengers over TDKR only because it felt plodding in the first half hour. But man those last 45 minutes are FAN F***ing tastic,
