I'm with you on that.
Batman is one of my favourite characters in all of entertainment, and I've watched The Dark Knight literally about 20 times but I don't really get the impression that TDKR is going to be mindblowingly great. Then again I wasn't on The Dark Knight hype train until I actually saw it, so I dunno. I'm confident it will be good, at the very least.
Agreed with both, but I really think that people are just overhyping this movie so much that the movie itself will just underwhelm them.
I'm just not really excited at the direction this movie has taken that feels like CGI or more science-fiction than the "realistic" vibe that the series had going for it. We go from at most a Hospital blowing up and special-vision goggles to a hover-craft. I'm sure the movie itself will still be really good but I'm just afraid that it's already "blown up the football field" (you know, "nuked the fridge/jumped the shark" but in comic-book form).
Perhaps when I see it I'll change my toon but right now (and ever since we've seen both trailers) I've been far and away more interested in the Avengers flick, and I even like Bane.
