WHAT IS IT ABOUT: Eight years after the events of “The Dark Knight,” the terrorist leader Bane arrives in Gotham City, pushing it and its police force to their limits, forcing its former hero Batman to resurface after taking the fall for Harvey Dent’s crimes.
WHO'S IN IT Christian Bale, Tom Hardy, Joseph Gordon Levitt, Anne Hathaway, Gary Oldman, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Marion Cotillard
WHEN DOES IT PREMIERE: July 20
When the release of a movie trailer generates just as much hype as the movie itself, it may be hard to live up to expectations. Regardless, “The Dark Knight Rises,” starring Christian Bale as Batman, has its predecessor to blame for these standards. After all, “The Dark Knight” (2008) was one of the most outstanding action movies ever produced.
Director Christopher Nolan certainly wasn’t helping things when he released “Inception” (2010), a film that many of the same fans praised. Perhaps it was no surprise when he began to cast the same actors (Hardy, Cotillard, Gordon-Levitt) into the Batman series. When a formula works, why tinker with it? Of course, all the previous actors are reprising their roles.
The film picks up eight years after “The Dark Knight” and will feature villains Catwoman (Hathaway) and Bane (Hardy). It has been announced this is the end of the series, giving Nolan the creative freedom to do what he wants. Surely, he will make the most of his $250 million budget, eliminating any chance of disappointment.
Although, I do wish they kept the series in Chicago.

A week or two after our visit to Medieval Times, Andrew wanted to make paper dolls of knights--and eventually a larger cast of characters. I drew them, and he colored them. (The rectangular figure near the center is the king upon his throne.)
An evening playing with strobes at SCC. (among the many other activities of the evening). Strobes were set up and metered.
Sir Cumference stood dutifully in his magnificent but rusty armour as the strobes went off in the darkness around him.
Strobist Set-up:
On camera left and behind the tRusty knight was a Cactus RF60 flash in a gridded Photix 80cm Octabox to give a soft rimlight on the knight. On camera right and behind the knight was a bare SB-900 with a Cactus V6 transceiver for a harsher rimlight. This was also intentionally kept in the frame. A silver reflector to the right and in front of the knight was used to push some fill back into the front.
Edited in Lightroom CC. Colour temperature and tint was adjusted to produce the purple hue.
Near Barakka's Gardens there is, of course, also the Palace, the house of Knights at the time. It's worth really a visit. All the rooms are so fine decorated, all with large and heavy tends over wide windows, luminous chandeliers, tapestry or walls/ceiling adorned with frescos. There is too much to show. For the selection I choose this photo to rappresent the Palace, where the trace of Knight are more than visible...
A long long corridor starts here connecting all the rooms. Echo back of steps accompany you moving along it, watching at the ceiling so great painted, portrait of grandmasters every where, guarded constantly by all this armours so great lined on both side of the corridor, on all it's lenght (!). They seems so alive. Believe me, is really like you aspected one to move, from one moment to the next. :)!
(I prefer to leave the low light for the atmosphere, without using flash, don't know if you feel it..for me is good, not so dark in my screen..have one with more exposure but I like this one..yours?).
baci. comes tomorrow sure..

Vicino ai giardini di Barakka c'è ovviamente anche il Palazzo, quella che a suo tempo fu la residenza dei Cavalieri. Vale veramente la pena andarci. Tutte le stanze sono così ben decorate, con pesanti drappeggi su ampie finestre, candelabri di cristallo dalla luce accecante, talvolta muri con arazzi o soffitti sempre ricchi di affreschi. Ci sarebbe troppo da farvi vedere, così per la selezione ho scelto questa foto per rappresentare il Palazzo, dove le tracce dei Cavalieri son più che visibili...
Un lunghissimo corridoio inizia qui congiungendo tutte le camere del Palazzo. I passi nell'avanzare riecheggiano sul pavimento e lo sguardo inizia a vagare ammirando gli affreschi sul soffitto o guardando sfilare enormi quadri raffiguranti i vari Grandmaster in perfetta posa, il tutto sotto l'occhio vigile delle numerose armature perfettamente allineate su entrambi i lati e su tutta la lunghezza del corridoio (!). Tirate a lucido, così fiere.Sembrano vive. Credetemi, ad un certo punto ti aspetti perfino di vederle muoversi da un momento all'altro :)!
(Ho preferito scattare senza flash, avrebbe rovinato l'atmosfera, si, può risultare più scura ma sul mio video si vede bene, sul vostro?).
baci. Passo da voi di sicuro domani.

Ask me who my favourite super-hero is and I'll tell you 'Superman!' in a heart beat.
Ask me who the coolest super-hero is and again the answer is easy and quick; Jack Knight, Starman.
While the Man of Steel always has pole position with me, there is no denying just how damn cool Jack Knight was. He had no secret ID, no real super-powers to speak of (he was good at kung-fu, that was it) no costume either. He collected stuff other people thought was junk, he used to be a punk, he'd often get tattoos and he'd let his hair grow or sometimes sport a goatee and he's the only hero I know who dissed Batman because he thought he didn't have a favourite Woody Allen film.
Jack Knight ladies and gents, he's damn cool.
Warwick Castle: a medieval castle developed from an original built by William the Conqueror in 1068. Warwick is the county town of Warwickshire, England, situated on a bend of the River Avon.
A battle is brewing. The knights see their enemy in the distance. They raise their swords to show the enemy that the time is near. Victory will come to only one. Which will it be?
Se está gestando una batalla. Los caballeros ven a su enemigo a lo lejos. Levantan sus espadas para mostrarle al enemigo que el momento está cerca. La victoria llegará sólo a uno. ¿A quién será?
