I second the comment about the dialog. Inception had the same issue with mumbled dialog, especially from Ken Watanabe. It might add to the (contrived) mystery about the screenplay, but it gets irksome after a while when directors use it as a tactic to introduce false need for the user to perk up their ears that extra bit just to follow what the heck is going on!
Lol, really guys? It's Chris Nolan for crying out loud, his worst moments are still exquisite filmmaking.
Regardless, I think the unfortunate focus on the CGI football field explosion is just that... unfortunate. Word is that it is hardly the focus of the actual scene it is taken from. Besides that, they used over 15,000 extras in that scene, and tons of real pyrotechnics. They actually tore that field up, so it will be interesting to see how it all comes together in the final film. I sincerely doubt they would go through all that trouble for a scene they planned to just render in post...
Sorry fellas but after Dark Knight I was hoping Nolan would perhaps make Batman not so much for adults and brighten things up a bit but this new trailer looks like more of the same. In fact, that football bit looks a lot like something from Inception. This whole series is a bust for me. I mean wtf is this Batman: prozac? It sure doesn't look or feel like a comic book movie to me...more like the sequel for Inception or Requiem for a Dream.

Inception and RFAD are both brilliant films, and Batman by it's nature is a darker\\gritter comic series. So, I don't really understand the complaint. Sounds like another case of personal viewing expectations not being met, which results in unfounded criticisms.
I hear ya. There's certain movies I don't mind seeing in 3D. Transformers 3: DOTM in IMAX 3D was pretty darn cool. But IMAX 3D is in a whole other league. Another movie I enjoyed in regular old RealD 3D was Drive Angry. That movie rocks!
Just kidding. Seriously though, I don't think anybody is doubting that the film will still be awesome. I mean, I think the second coming of Jesus is more likely than the film actually being BAD. Regardless, the trailer was pretty disappointing. Which is surprising because the first real trailer for TDK was, no hyperbole, one of the most OMG-AWESOME! trailers of all time. Of course, that was arguably all due to Ledger and his overwhelming awesomeness as the Joker (man, I sound like quite the fan boy--I'm really not that much of a Nolan batman fanboy, I swear!). Anyhoo, thinking back to the Batman Begins trailers, I don't recall if they were all that fantastic either.

This is me trying to pinch myself awake. Memento is a masterpiece, and both Inception and The Prestige are close enough. Wow.. to each their own indeed.
Your my kinda guy Oink. We seem to agree more often than not. I didn't mind Inception, it just didn't meet any of my expectations. Memento I thought was fabulous, but I probably don't care to see it again.
'The Dark Knight Rises' Faces Big Problem: Audiences Can't Understand Villain

Sources say some at Warner Bros. want Christopher Nolan to change the sound mix in response to complaints that Bane's dialogue is hard to hear. But the filmmaker plans only to alter the sound slightly.
After building to such a climax with the end of Dark Knight, why would Nolan brighten things up now? That's going against the grain of the narrative. You channeling your inner Schumacher?
