Nolan: ‘Dark Knight Rises’ finds the future in IMAX, not 3-D

All of Hollywood is reaching for 3-D glasses but Christopher Nolan sees a different vision of innovation.



“The title of the new film is ‘The Dark Knight Rises‘ and we will be shooting and exhibiting the film in 2-D,” Nolan said of the third Batman film, which is planned for a 2012 release and will now be held up as a victory for the assorted foes of the stereoscopic trend for “event” films. Nolan hasn’t been shy about expressing his disdain for 3-D but he also has zero interest in taking on the mantle of some anti-3-D crusade. It’s too hard to predict the future landscape of studio feature filmmaking and Nolan doesn’t want to paint himself into a corner; more than that, by nature he is uninterested in polarizing controversy or grandstanding. Instead, the man who has become the Hitchcock of superhero cinema would rather take each film one at a time and make the best choice for it as far as format.

And for “The Dark Knight Rises,” that choice is not 3-D.

“We want the look and feel of the film to be faithful to what has come before in the first two films,” Nolan said. “There was a large canvas and operatic sweep to ‘The Dark Knight’ and we want to make a film that will carry on with that look and feel.”

Stereoscopic presentation would have significantly changed the feel of certain “Dark Knight” scenes, such as rooftop and aerial shots in Hong Kong that created vast and startling night vistas. “There’s an intimacy at times [with spatial illusion of the 3-D effect] and we didn’t want to lose scale…. Our ambition for the third movie is to complete a story that has begun,” Nolan said. “This is not starting over, this is not rebooting. We’re finishing something, and keeping a consistency with what’s come before has real value.”

The commitment to IMAX and high-definition cameras will enable Nolan to avoid the dim-image challenges that come with 3-D. He said it will let him take the third film in the series into a new stratum as far as image quality and the scale that can be achieved with that quality. ”We’re looking to do something technologically that’s never been done before,” Nolan said. “Our ambitions are to make a great movie.”

It won’t be mandatory to see the film in IMAX; however, to “see the benefits of the extraordinarily sharp, high-resolution” images.

It’s interesting to watch the way 3-D is being handled by the different studios. With the announcement of two new “Avatar” films by the end of 2015, Fox and James Cameron will be pushing forward into the 3-D frontiers in a big way, and Disney is on board certainly after the strong showing by Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland.” But Warner Bros. has a far different experience now unfolding. The studio took major heat for the blurred and bungled 3-D conversion of “Clash of the Titans” (although the film was certainly a major financial success with $493 million in worldwide box office) and then Nolan successfully resisted overtures that “Inception” should be converted in a similar last-minute process. Warners also planned to release “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1” in the stereoscopic  format next month but despite the advertisements and trailers already bearing the 3-D logo, the filmmakers and studio chief Alan Horn agreed that there wasn’t enough time to do the job right.

There’s plenty of time to do the conversion for “The Dark Knight Rises,” which doesn’t even begin filming until April, but Nolan said he was “able to make the case that pushing forward cinematically” isn’t defined by 3-D and that for the grim and massive visions of Gotham City, the best way to go was to use IMAX cameras and high-definition approaches that will be able to widen out even more. It’s a philosophical approach: Cameron is making a movie that makes people lean back, Nolan wants to make movies that make people lean forward.

“It’s horses for courses,” Nolan said, using the British expression for taking things case-by-case. It will be interesting to see if Nolan’s Superman film — which he and his wife, Emma Thomas, are producing and that Zack Snyder is directing — will be in 3-D, and I think there’s a very good chance that it will be, considering the very different visual imperatives of a movie based in gleaming Metropolis and featuring a character that is just begging to fly off the screen.

Christopher Nolan reveals title of third Batman film and that ‘it won’t be the Riddler’

Christopher Nolan’s third Batman film will be called “The Dark Knight Rises” and though the Gotham City auteur isn’t ready to reveal the villain of his 2012 film, he did eliminate one of the big contenders: “It won’t be the Riddler,” Nolan said in an exclusive interview with Hero Complex.





Riddler rumors were off target. (DC Comics)



Nolan was most eager to talk about the fact that Warner Bros. had  agreed with his argument that the film should resist the current 3-D craze and instead use high-definition approaches and IMAX cameras to strike out on a different cinematic path than the stereoscopic technology that, for better or worse, has become the dominant conversation in the blockbuster sector.

Check back here later in the morning for a more in-depth look at that decision and the Nolan ambitions and reasons behind it.

As for the title, it shows the writer-director’s intention to keep his Bruce Wayne trilogy tightly stitched together. “We’ll use many of the same characters as we have all along, and we’ll be introducing some new ones,” Nolan said cryptically.  I had an odd thought: What if Nolan somehow brings back Harvey Dent? The only reason I even mention it is because, back during post-production on the second film, Nolan told me that the title “The Dark Knight” was just as much about Dent and his fall from the status of shining-knight civic crusader. Dent was plainly dead at the end of the last film, though, and Nolan has been intent on keeping his Gotham City film firmly rooted in a gritty gangland realism– this isn’t a franchise that has veered off into the supernatural or even much super-science.

Nolan plays things close to the vest — he’s one of the few filmmakers of his generation who actually does wear a vest — and he chuckled when I tried to get a few more details out of him. “Oh, you know me, I don’t talk.” He began our conversation by comparing it with a visit to the dentist’s office. Well, if so, he’s a patient who never opens wide. I asked if he could imagine a time when Warner Bros. would let a filmmaker shoot a Batman script where the villain isn’t one of the signature creations from the comic books. “Ah, Geoff Boucher, master of the leading question,” he said with a chuckle.

That’s when he did agree, however, to eliminate a villain candidate, namely Edward Nigma, the green-suited Riddler, who many people (myself included) assumed was the next natural choice. That character could be taken in a lot of directions — think of Kevin Spacey’s character in “Seven” as a compass point for one of those dark paths — but Nolan and his team are going a different way. As with “Dark Knight,” the new film has a script written by Nolan and his brother, Jonah, and it’s based on a story by the director and David Goyer. Earlier, I got Nolan to take Mr. Freeze off the list and, yes, this is like pulling teeth but don’t think for a minute that I mind. Nolan makes sublime films, and any secrets he wants to keep in place are done so to protect the final product. As for me, I’m hoping now for Hugo Strange who, come to think of it, looks a bit like a dentist…

诺兰不屑3d，还是按照imax来走～

又是一个经典三部曲吗

诺兰的batman要是出些漫画里的超人类怪物就太违和了，一直走真实系batman吧。

诺兰好强势啊 小嫩胳膊硬搬电影公司这大腿

无3D赞！！！大爱诺兰

无3D赞，这种剧情内涵片还搞3D完全是画蛇添足

没有谜语人...冷冻先生也被排除，笔者猜测的Hugo Strange明显不靠谱，档次不够而且搞生化人的题材明显和电影版气氛不符。企鹅在伯顿版里出现过了，鳄鱼、毒藤之类的太科幻估计也没戏。由于剧情里稻草人没死，我打赌稻草人肯定还会出现但依然会是配角，主要罪犯现在真的很难猜……

另外电影标题这是和漫画版TDKR对着干啊...TDKR里的终篇就叫The Dark Knight Falls

傻逼3D，主次都分不清楚了
传统电影才是王道

对偶这种宅族来说,剧情最高~~~

BALE又回来了~赞！

主反派可以依然是小丑...

“卡梅伦的电影让观众向后靠，诺兰的电影让观众向前倾。”
我看到不少人是身体离开靠背看完[盗梦空间]的。

囧瑟夫演小丑？

反正经过盗梦，JGL和诺兰也练过手了...
