Woohoo! That's number 1 on my most anticipated movies list right now.

Well, the PS2 is at least partially "128-bit" but that's more an oddity than anything, as it's still less capable than the GC or the original XBOX. By the same token, the Intellivision was a 16-bit console. All of the marketing hype about "bits" back in the day was just BS, and is probably better forgotten.

What really makes me hang my head in shame is when people refer to the current generation as "256-bit." Sorry folks, we're still pretty much doing 32 and 64-bit systems this generation.

Doesn't show much, but hey it's a teaser.

Not sure how I feel about that... thing on Bane's face.

Still excited about this film though, hopefully Nolan can break the superhero threequel curse.

Good point. But yeah I'm sure Nolan will pull it off.

Kinda glad that they're closing off the Nolanverse with this in a way. A reboot makes sense since they want to pull a Marvel and work up to a Justice League movie.

Wow, that's aimed at 6 year olds for sure. I know I would have thought it was cool at that age. Now, not so much.
I don't know man. I don't know if I could ever see hanging laundry being cool at any age unless it involved some kind of rube goldberg puzzle. It's just...such a terrible scene.
