The Dark Knight Rises

[Celini]

How to get around the midnight screening ban, you ask?
Well, do a 6am screening of TDKR on 20th, preceded by a midnight double bill of BB/TDK (11.59pm, 19th)... you wanted it, BFI IMAX is doing it :)

edit: the only problem is that the 6am screening is fully booked of course!
(I will personally double bill it on blu from the comfort of my sofa at a decent hour!)

Christian Bale has revealed he almost fainted in his Batman costume because he struggled to breathe through it.

The Dark Knight Rises star wears a tight-fitting rubber suit, along with a matching mask and neck piece, called a 'cowl' to play the superhero, and revealed to Empire magazine he found it suffocating at first.

Bale said: "When it gets cold the cowl is extremely tight, and it gets better the warmer I get it; it becomes more flexible. But after a couple of takes I was trying to breathe properly in my nose. I was starting to see stars and I said 'I have to take this off'.

"And thank God on this one I can - on Batman Begins I couldn't - so I had to get inside because I couldn't let anybody see me without the cowl."

The Fighter star also revealed getting accidentally hit in the face for real during fight scenes doesn't necessarily mean suffering for your art.

He explained: "It never looks how it feels. It's so weird.

"You get moments where I've had fights in movies where I get punched really, by mistake, and when you look at it on playback it looks like a really c*** punch.

"And then you do another one which is really slow and big and felt like c*** and you look at the movie and you're wincing, like 'Oh c*** that must have hurt!'."

I'm the BFI all-nighter aficionado of course and I would so be there if there were tickets left. I think I'll do what you're going to do which is watch the blu-rays at home. Mind you, I don't even have the blu-rays...

Just noticed the Yahoo regional premiere comp for TDKR, does this potentially mean there could be Sky or SFF tickets for these showings!!
Very excited!!

With Warners not wanting the ending leaking online before the release date, I highly doubt there will be early screenings for these.
