November 2, 2024Nov 2 I know that set because I have it in my collection. It is hard to understand why there is so little sets from such a high quality movies. Childs? Can't be the answer. LEGO is for adults also.

Can't be the answer. LEGO is for adults also. Maybe just because the Bat is kinda generic looking, this could be megablocks but I think maybe the thought process is that the Tumbler sells best so they do that semi regularly, but they don't want to ever do a larger wave of TDK trilogy sets as they might not sell well enough to justify any more than the amount they do and by the time that a few years have passed and they wanna take a stab at sets from those films again they just go for the Tumbler again as it's been discontinued for a few years by then
November 3, 2024Nov 3 A remake of the 76001 set with Talia and Selina, trenchcoat Bane and accurate Gordon minifigures would be a nice thing, IMHO. With two 'military' camo Tumblers instead of one! The Bat is a horrible design for a universe that claims itself to be 'grounded' and 'realistic'. There is no aircraft or military expert that didn't criticise it. But it's much too late now...

November 3, 2024Nov 3 Too difficult to build? No license? LEGO thinks this image is NOT COOL? Let's favour Marvel. Why LEGO hates DC ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

November 3, 2024Nov 3 @legoturtle is out of control after watching TDKR - the weirdest movie in Nolan's trilogy, IMHO. The only Nolan movie I liked was TDK, and the reason is Ledger's Joker. The other two seem utterly weird to me. As they said: "Christian Bale is the best Bruce Wayne, but not the best Batman", but watching a perfect, comic-accurate Bruce Wayne isn't entertaining at all. TDK had Joker, who entertained me in a way Nicholson's version couldn't. It also had the absolute best (not because he is 'the only', but because how important and awesome he is) Lucius Fox played by Morgan Freeman, but he doesn't 'steal the show', as he didn't in the other two movies. Ledger's charisma helped TDK to stand out. The entire plot of Gotham being taken over by a short Bane on platform shoes and Batman faking his death to let a cop named Robin (?!) take his place is something I can't take seriously. Sorry...

TDKR feels like a first draft of a better movie that was just filmed as-is. It has good ideas (introducing Robin, villains taking over Gotham, etc), but the execution is extremely forced (All of the GCPD is ordered into the sewers? Really?). Ironically, I also think TDKR needed more villains (in addition to more development for Talia), since half of Batman’s rogues gallery working together to take over Gotham makes more sense than just one guy (especially since “Miranda Tate” was primarily focused on destroying Bruce Wayne). Something like this would have worked: In the years since Batman disappeared, crime in Gotham has flourished. New players are filling the vacuum left by the Joker’s destruction of the mob (Penguin), some angry Gothamites have begun to idolise the Joker and his reign of chaos (Harley Quinn), and criminals overall have begun to adopt a ‘freak’ aesthetic (Riddler). Seeing this, a young GCPD officer named Robin John Blake decides to take matters into his own hands (inspired by Batman), and goes out at night dressed in a leather jacket and military surplus gear (changing Robin’s traditional red/green/yellow to dark red/olive green/tan). When Talia arrives in Gotham to take revenge for the death of her father, she assembles the various rogues of the city under the mantle of the Red Hood (the OG one, not Jason Todd) and spends the better part of Batman’s absence undermining the GCPD and laying the groundwork for an eventual takeover of the city; as “Miranda Tate”, Talia directly targets Bruce Wayne and his assets during this time as well.

Bane was the best part of it IMO, besides the voice, he was menacing, snapping peoples necks lol, I feel like if they just let him be the main villian and not a henchman to Talia then it could have been better Shame Heath died tho, could have seen him in Arkham as the last inmate left and Bane not wanting to free him

Bane would obviously still be there, and establishing his partnership with Talia (as Red Hood) early keeps the eventual Miranda Tate twist from undermining him. 21 minutes ago, Lego Nostalgia said: Shame Heath died tho, could have seen him in Arkham as the last inmate left and Bane not wanting to free him I think they could still have included him by just showing him from the back (maybe facing the back wall of his cell, laughing to himself?).

November 3, 2024Nov 3 @Classic_Spaceman, your ideas are much better than those of WB writers now and even back then. Seriously, this sounds like a great plot scenario. 22 minutes ago, Lego Nostalgia said: Shame Heath died tho, could have seen him in Arkham as the last inmate left and Bane not wanting to free him I doubt Joker would've been willing to be freed by ANYONE, unless it already was part of his plan, of course!
November 3, 2024Nov 3 Nolan wanted Ledger to come back for that film, my pet theory has always been he phoned this one in once he realised he couldn't do his original plan. The film's really funny though so I don't mind, it's pretty much an Adam West plot pretending to have the depth of the previous film

I dunno. Heath is one of the few characters where I really don't think anyone could have replicated his performance- I'm usually not against recasting (And hate when companies act like it's super disrespectful or whatever and then turn around and recast Harrison Ford as Ross)- but I don't see a reason to do it when he didn't really need to be in this story. If they really wanted to they could have thrown in a line where Bane says something like "The clown won't come out of his cell without batman" or something like that. Guys, c'mon, who reported riddler/turtle? He hadn't done anything on this account. Don't kick him off.
