The Dark Knight Rises: Short and Honest

For those of you who enjoy the humor of Cracked.com, you will be pleased to read one of their latest articles on The Dark Knight Rises. It basically asks the question, “What if Nolan and the cast cut the dramatic bullshit and told the story like it is?” and then went on to give several examples in script format. Here’s one that I thought was particularly good:

JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT: Look, I know it’s been eight years, but Batman needs to return.

CHRISTIAN BALE: Wait, what? How do you know I’m Batman?

JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT: I met you a long time ago, and I could tell by the look in your eyes that you missed your dead parents. So I deduced that you dress like a bat and beat up criminals.

CHRISTIAN BALE Damn, I knew I should have worn a pair of glasses. I’ll do it, but you’re missing the point of Batman. He could be … anyone. (looks directly at Joseph) ANYONE.
