Where Three Nolan Fans come up with a very interesting theory

I was on one of the innumerable Nolan fangroups and had this VERY, VERY, VERY interesting conversation with two other fans.
And our theory is...well.... check it out below. You'll discover it as we discovered it and this theory could potentially change all that we know about Nolan's upcoming The Dark Knight Rises.
Surajt drops the bomb first.  

I just watched Elite Squad 2

WARNING : This post contains me giving a lot of fucks

Synopsis: "After a prison riot, Captain Nascimiento, now a high ranking security officer in Rio de Janeiro, is swept into a bloody political dispute that involves government officials and paramilitary groups."

It's fucking textbook scriptwriting : Give characters the hardest fucking time you can. Be fucking brutal. Push them to the fucking limit, fuck them to hell, damn them. That's how you write a screenplay. You write fucking amazing character arcs, make the audience fucking love the characters or fucking hate them. Make it as fucking complex as fucking possible. And that's what Tropa de Elite fucking does. 

And Nascimento, here, goes through the fucking most hardest time possible. I won't tell you even a little bit of it. I want it to fucking shock you and move you as it fucking did me. When the shit hits the fan, your jaw's going to fucking drop. Hard. Doesn't matter if you're a fucking child murderer or a fucking rapist, it's going to get to you. It's that fucking good. This movie will give you fucking chest hair. And it's a fucking interesting story of one man against a fucking army of motherfuckers; bureaucrats, politicians, media personalities, the fucking Brazilian mafia. And this guy is fucked. He's fucked from everywhere, his wife's married the one fuck responsible for getting him off the squad he loved serving so fucking much. His son fucking hates him for doing whatever he has to do, and there are enemies fucking everywhere. 

The stakes aren't physically very high. Shit isn't about to blow up. Not physically, atleast. It fucking attacks where it hurts most. Not the fucking crotch, if you were wondering, but the fucking heart. This movie just falls short of fucking launching a harpoon through Nascimento's chest. It gives him a very fucking hard time. And that's why it's excellent.   

And director Jose Padhila is fucking gifted. A lot of directors channel beauty, wonder, and love through their films. But this guy, he channels fucking rage. Just look at the fucking number of fucks I give to this post. That's how well he channels it.

And Micheal Bay lovers will suck Padhila's wet cock after watching this movie.

That's how action is done, motherfuckers.

That's how you make a fucking movie.

Fucking A grade stuff, like 100 kilos of weed. Fucking 9/10 in terms of numbers. Way fucking better than it's prequel (which is worth watching too).

Fuck yeah. Haven't seen this good an action film in a long fucking time. Fuck Yeah. Watch it. Definitely watch it. I recommend watching part one before this, but I don't really give a flying fuck if you don't. You don't need to really know what happens before. This is the best fucking film out of Brazil I've seen since City of God.
Also, I won't be surprised if this wins the best foreign language Oscar. My only regret is not watching it fucking earlier like my Uncle told me to. Damn. Should have watched it then.
Buy Elite Squad here. Elite Squad 2 : The Enemy Within here. 

Why you should check out Animal Man.

The DC relaunch, the new 52, so far...well, I'm in two minds about it. 

On one hand, it's taken characters such as Aquaman and Wonder Woman, who were previously the butt of all Superhero jokes and turned them into something amazing, but on the other hand, it's ruined more iconic characters like Superman, Catwoman and Starfire. I think even DC is confused as to where it wants to take these characters, because that Catwoman/Batman sex scene at the end of Catwoman #1 was a new low for DC. It was just freaking awful. 

But that said, there has been some good from this New 52, a lot of good, actually, in the form of Animal Man and Swamp Thing. And a lot of you morons, who think comics are for kids, or for man-children, or whatever stupid misconception you have, should definitely check them out.  

Animal Man's powers are that he can dig into, well, nature and copy a trait from an animal that is nearby. But the comics aren't really about Animal Man using his powers and foiling bank robberies, it's much more deeper than that. An early arc of Animal Man published in the eighties', written by Grant Morisson was one of the trippiest comics of all time. He depicted Animal Man as a family man, and as an activist whose activities bordered on eco-terrorism. It found the fourth wall, took a sledge hammer, and smashed it to bits and spread the shards all over the world. It was a comic where the character himself interacted with the person writing him. It'll take a long time to explain, and I won't explain it here, so, if you will, you can buy it from Flipkart. 

This new arc, by Jeff Lemire is nearly as trippy as Grant Morisson's arc. Well, I'd say it's on par with it. Jeff Lemire is very much a capable writer, as evidenced by his work on Sweet Tooth (Being published by Vertigo at the moment). And he has that amazing ability to bring an air of unease in every panel. In Sweet Tooth, he creates an atmosphere where you really can't trust anyone. There are no safe places. And he uses that ability of his very well on Animal Man. The current story arc sees Animal Man trying to save his family from the "Rot", the spirit of death and disease that is threatening to destroy all life. He finds out why he is Animal Man, and why his family is so important to the world. There are genuine moments in the comicbook where you will be hard-pressed to utter an "Oh Sh**". This is a thriller that thrills you and shocks you by making characters you actually care for go through a really, really awful time. And that, I think, is it's strongest asset. 

The art by Travel Foreman has been, for most part of the current story arc, brilliant. Some bits of it have been uneven, but for the most part it's been good, and has complemented the story near-perfectly. The inking by Jeff Huet on these books kind of uplifts the pencilling. It makes the original art look better than it should be. The one problem with the art is that it could do with some more black outs. It needs more blacks. That's what makes it uneven. It should have as much black as a piece of Mike Mignola art. And for this minor reason, the coloring somewhat falls short of wowing us. 

But otherwise, it's a brilliant book. People who haven't been following it should buy the collected edition when it comes out in May from here, and it's a bloody good starting point for those who don't read comicbooks at all. 

You can purchase Jeff Lemire's other comicbooks here. 

Here's another movie you HAVE to watch next year.

That's from a movie called Upside Down, by the way.

Here's a lookie:



I have no idea when it comes out. But when it does, I'm going to be first in line for a ticket.
It's been a while since we got scifi with such an amazing concept.

Synopsis : It's, like, Romeo and Juliet, but between two worlds. Just...just bloody watch the trailer. Synopses are boring.
