First Person-ish cop movie about two officers that stumble across a drug cartel... LOOKS AWESOME. This is one of those you watch the movies and then seriously consider being a cop if it was at all like this movie...which it isn't I don't think. It is starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Michael Pena (there is a squiggly line above the 'N' in 'Pena' used to indicate his ethnicity, but I don't know how to write it using my keyboard) The director is David Ayer who has a fetish for badass-streetgang-cop movies having done training day, and S.W.A.T and Street Kings. I am very much looking forward to having that couple moments of wanting to be a badass cop.

Why I believe that 'The Dark Knight Rises' will be one of the greatest movies of ALL time....!

A Movie to Rise Above All Others

The Dark Knight Rises, has been an extremely long awaited squeal, not in the traditional sense of time, but in the longing of awesomeness sense... Let me elaborate... Most movies I walk out of and say 'hey that was alright' then a while later I think 'hmmm could go for another one of those movies right now' but when it comes to Batman I left the Dark Knight movie theatre and was immediately ready for the sequel, and that is why it is an extremely long awaited movie. The Dark Knight Rises has had a crazy amount of hype after The Dark Knight and Batman Begins which were both absolutely amazing movies! The movie is expected to be just as good as The Dark knight is not better, and I believe that even though the expectations are extremely high the movie will be just as good if not better then the Dark Knight... and that is saying a lot.

I will elaborate my argument in three paragraphs. The first praising Christopher Nolan as a god. The second is just my personal opinion followed by a concluding paragraph that will have the word fuck in it about 20 times... obviously to give emphasis to my opinion.

 'The Dark Knight Rises' - And Why it is are going to be one of the best movies ever:

1. The Director (Christopher Nolan) is a genius not much else actually has to be said about that but if you need proof; he was the creative mind behind the 'mindfucking' movies (movies that fuck with your mind) such as: Insomnia, the murder mystery story nominated for numerous awards, directed by Christopher Nolan. Memento, the low budget films that was nominated for two oscars, Written and Directed by Christopher Nolan. The Prestige featuring Christian Bale and Hugh Jackson about two aspiring magicians in search of the greatest illusion. From mind thrillers, to magicians and Superheros there is nothing he can't do.  The man is also british so he is smart. He also wear scarfs and looks like a total swag-baller. The Man can make movies with highs stake suspense, crazy actions scenes, great special effects, and at the same time can completely scramble your brain. He is a king of the cinematic world (I said 'a king' not 'the king') and a God of the normal world, and he will not disappoint his peasants in "The Dark Knight Rises".

2. This movie is the 'epic conclusion' or one of the greatest trilogies of all time and with the amount of built up for movies, it might be impossible to achieve people expectation, but for me if it is even 1/50th of what I expect/want then it will be one of the greatest movies ever! I think the villain in this movie is awesome, I think the plot of this movie is awesome and I think that the flying thing that 'isnt a car' is going to be fucking awesome. I will be waiting in line for this movie for like 3 hours and it is going to be so worth it in everyway!! This movie won't be awarded in 3 or 5 stars ratings it will awarded in diamonds, because Christopher Nolan knows that pressure makes diamonds.

3. Fuck Fuck Fuck (17 left) This movie is going to reach new fucking height for the fucking superohero movie fucking genre, it will fuck with your heart, fuck with your thoughts, and it will be fucking fucktastic, and fuckgasmic!!! The cast is fucking amazing basically fucking Inception plus the Dark fucking Knight together to have one grand old fucking time. The brainiac director Christopher fucking Nolan is about to end his first trilogy and it is going to be fucking awesome!! Fuck Fuck Fuck-ya! (that was a cheer at the end...cause I had to get to 20)
