That's a punchline which even makes my beer shake and almost accidentally does blow up my speakerset:
Dialogue:
" What now?"
Batman:
" War!"
Never knew that three letter word could have that much impact when it's spoken with a deep and dark voice! hahaha1 likeFor those who where here from last year on:

i have some extract from the soundtrack in here to.
And I really hope we gonna have a full Bane Theme in a special edition of the soundtrack because it looks pretty short (4,07minutes). Why so Serious was 9min+ and ALSO because it sounds really amazing!

If you're worried about spoilers in the video, don't worry, there's maybe 10-15 seconds of actual film footage we hadn't seen before, but that's it. Most of the video we've already seen in trailers or it's behind the scenes stuff.

Possible spoilers:
The production notes states that the workstation rises out of the water. With a switch, it can disappear below the water...now you see it, now you don't.

Not a spoiler. It's known that the cave props/structures will be hidden underwater.

3 likesYou didn't catch the major spoiler?
I guess I'm the only one.Starts at the 9min mark.
Spoilers below:
I'll put it together for you... Up to today and this 13 minute behind the scenes feature, I and everyone else saw the tv spots and trailers thinking, and using references from the comics, that Bane breaks into the Cave and breaks Batman as their first fight.
Crowley mentions that there were a lot of underground sets, when he said 'sewer' the video editor totally blew it wide open and cut to the waterfalls and catwalks with the chain links. This is the same location we see Bane fast rope down, taunt "Mr. Wayne" and fight a cornered Batman on the catwalks, and tosses a broken cowl. This is important because it confirms other pieces of the plot tightly. Gordon leads a small force of police to the sewers, explosions trap the officers, he gets separated and flushed out of the sewer onto a reservoir in which we see John Blake racing in the water to him. At the hospital, Batman asks Gordon the location of Bane's underground base knowing full well, he will be walking into a trap. This explains the blurry figure overlooking Batman and Bane fight. Surrounded, Batman is forced to fight.
Had Crowley not labeled the sewer as this underground waterfall, it could be left to interpretation that Bane fights Batman at the Cave.
1 likeYeah dude, i knew that, it's alright. Didn't needed to write it all... now take a breath! Breath, breeeaaaath... chill out a little.
2 likesThere are two groups of people on this site. You got the dumb group that knowingly goes to a fan site and acts like a crybaby when their virgin eyes see a spoiler, then there's the other group that has the smarts to piece it together and come to this site to see if others reach the same conclusions. I don't mind writing at all, it's my job. Can't speak for others, the trolls that like to police other's ideas without coming up anything of their own. I bet it's mostly American-born, who has a harder time at English than immigrants, and the best they can come up with is "lame." Makes the site looks amateurish.

Hey bro sorry for the very late response to TDKR but i decided to stop internet commenting after all the drama over the last few months but i knew i had to respond to you bro because me and you are the Batman and Robin of BatmanNews.com i know i know your Batman i ll be Robin LOL = ) So here are my thoughts on the film !
1 . Like i always said to you bro i wanted TDKR to be about Bruce s story Nolan delivered 100 % on this
2 . Also like you know i hoped BANE would have a bigger motive than just being evil they totaly wowed me with the twist of BANE being the friend who helped Talia = )
3 . This is the point when i completeley eat humble pie ( do they have this saying in Brazil = ) ) Hathaways Catwoman was awsome she owned the role and the suit looked grest i was wrong all you guys were right !
4 . I wish you could of been there with me bro because i could not believe it as the ending unfolded we were both right ! i told you the final scene would be Alfred standing over Bruce and his parents grave , you said it could be a fake death , we were both right = )
And finaly bro i can not tell you how much i LOL when Blake revealed his real name " Robin " i was totaly thinking of you bro and how i knew you were dreading that moment but i knew you would realy love how they pulled it off = )
This is were i leave bro , i dont know what to say bro ? the only words i can think of are thanks for the friendship and conversation over the last 2 years , if someone had told me 2 years ago i would find someone who loved Batman as much as me and he lived in Brazil i would of LMAO so Thanks bro your a LEGEND and a RAGING MOTHERFUCKER = )
0 likesHey Ebo! Yeah, things got odd here in batman-news... too much newbies and freaks. I'll stop commenting here for a while, you know, let the dust settle down a bit. It was a pleasure talking to you and our brothers Fantaboy, Antro, Chsox, Diogo, QueenChaos, Unique, Basti, The fallen, and everybody who made this site so cool!
Like i said before, it was part of my life to come over and speculate about TDKR, all ideas and conversations were pretty fun and you're a great guy, good friend. Hope to see you around soon! I'd give you my email, but i'm afraid some freak might use it. :/
About TDKR, here it goes:
1- Loved the closure of Bruce's journey, but i think the Batman had few time on screen. A bit more would be perfect!
2- Yeah, it isn't Nolan style creating unidimensional characters, so his Bane was AWESOME, much better than the comics!
3- Told ya! ;)
4- It was perfect, best ending ever!
5- Well, like i said... Nolan did the impossible by giving Robin's character a dignified portrayal! Tough mission!!That's it, you crazy brit! Thank you for sharing so many good times during these 2 years! It was pretty awesome! Hope you enjoy the olympics and nail some chicks, your country might be boiling of tourists right now! That is what a good RAGING MOTHERFUCKER like us would do!!!
Cheers, and see ya!0 likes

It's a huge risk anytime a director of a summer tent-pole that costs a studio a quarter billion dollars give or take... marketing&merchandise, releases anything could risk plot leakage. All that we see is carefully edited by professionals working closely with Nolan, weeks in advance so that the plot stays under lock and key. It would be a disservice to fans and the actors that signed confidentiality agreements if the plot came to light. I personally saw the feature as too revealing. Piecing the tv spots, trailers, behind the scenes, early press reviews, and production notes...I already know more than half the plot.
Spoiler:
However, Crowley did identify that the first encounter between Bane and Batman was at the sewer/Bane's base of operations...hence home field advantage. Many thought Bane would break Batman in the cave like in the comics. But this featurette, which showed too much of the unseen aspects of the Sewer/Batcave, revealed the trailer scene of Bane fast rope down, "Mr. Wayne" on the catwalk, and tossing a broken cowl at the sewers. This explains the blurry figure in the background overlooking Batman fighting Bane from months ago.
1 likeI've thought for some time now that their first confrontation would occur in that underground location, which was indicated as the "sewers" from this video, so for me it still was not a spoiler. However, my previous sentence appropriately reflects the truth: that it was only my "thought."
There are many angles of this film that I "think" I know, but then I see a shot or a scene from a trailer and it leaves my mind chasing after its tail (yes, I know, my mind does have a tail). That is why I claim this video wasn't a spoiler. Does it provide evidence to some theories, yes. But true giveaways to the actual plot, we won't know until July 20th my friend!

A very short version of the 13min featurette, the Bat and Batpod tour, and that's basically it.
We see Bruce doing curls, a suited guy with a mask drop out of a window, more of Bane's voice. They could have just open the Batcave from the beginning, it wasn't worth the wait, Mountain Dew trying to squeeze customers.1 like

Wow I'm just blown away. This trilogy has meant so much to me as a life long BM fan. I can't help but want to speculate about how this all wraps up in the end, based on the production notes that came out the other day, and on Alfred's new dialogue in this video... SPOILERS.... just thinking out loud here but how does Batman get over being Batman? how does it go full-circle as everyone says it does? ...if Ms Tate ends up who we suspect she is ... is it possible that just maybe...somehow... a Nolan-ized Damian shows up too?

Even though Batman went on a self imposed exile for 8 years, I doubt that the powers that be at Warner Brothers will allow it. If this movie is too successful, it's guarantee that there will be a reboot and it will happen sooner than 8 years. While Sony has Amazing Spider-man 2 and Disney has Marvel's the Avengers 2 and Iron-man 3...WB will have nothing on the horizon after Man of Steel.

Why is Batman such a wishy-washy pussy? Retiring when things get tough? This is why he will never be a part of the Justice League or the Avengers. Agent Romanov, or even Hawkeye, could kick his whiny ass.
