"The third film in most trilogies is usually mediocre and hard to remember, such as Transformers 3."

Gilbert Jr. told the creators about his motivation for creating The Dark Knight Rises: "If I don't have a story core and script that convinces me enough, I won't start developing the third part."

As one of the few top students in Hollywood, and having followed Gilbert Jr. for many years, Anne Hathaway can better understand Gilbert Jr.'s creative philosophy.

"I read the script and the entire story structure is very similar to A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens, especially the end of the script, which is almost exactly the same as the storming of the Bastille by the people of Paris during the French Revolution."

"Yes."

Gilbert nodded and continued: "A Tale of Two Cities is the core of the story, and we also referenced the 1993 comic book Knightfall and the 1986 comic book The Dark Knight Returns.

Although it is difficult for this version of the story to surpass The Dark Knight, I think it is at least a perfect ending to the trilogy."

When discussing the role with Christian Bale, Gilbert Jr. also said: "Fear is the instinct of human beings to protect themselves.

Because of fear, we seek harm and avoid gain.

In the first film, what do you think is Bruce Wayne's fear?

Christian Bale answered: "Fear of bats, fear of not being able to save my parents, fear of criminals."

“It’s a very good summary.”

Gilbert Jr. continued: “In the second film, Bruce Wayne is still horrified by the loss of faith in Gotham.

In the third film, this fear continues and is heightened.”

Christian Bale said: "I read the script and I think fear breeds anger in Bruce Wayne and anger breeds power.

This is why he was able to rise from the abyss even after being imprisoned.”

"Anger is one reason, but anger is negative. We often say that positive emotions can always defeat negative emotions.

What drove Bruce Wayne to rise from the abyss was that he saw Gotham falling into war and he wanted to save Gotham. He eventually overcame his fear and climbed out of the abyss. "

Similar exchanges continued during the early preparations, which also helped Gilbert Jr. understand the actors' conditions and help them better understand their roles.

In addition to these software aspects, The Dark Knight Rises is more important in terms of hardware.

In this film, Batman has a new vehicle.

Batman's aircraft was inspired by the Harrier jet fighter and helicopter. The front of the aircraft is narrow, and the interior has more complex and mechanized control devices than a motorcycle. There is a vertical take-off and landing jet in the front and landing gear underneath.

Of course, unlike the Batmobile and Batbike which can move, this one-to-one Batplane cannot fly.

More often, it is used for staged photography and then controlled by a crane.

Bain's coat was inspired by Swedish army jackets and French Revolutionary dresses, making him look both authoritarian and revolutionary.

The Batsuit has also been improved, retaining the classic Batman elements and making it lightweight. As the weight changes, the Batsuit also changes accordingly.

In fact, at the beginning, action director Luca Farias suggested using doubles for the filming. Find a few people of similar height to Christian Bale, a few thinner ones for the early stage, and a stronger one for the later stage.

But Christian Bale insisted on doing it himself. He said: "Although I am wearing a mask, I hope the audience will see me as Batman, not a stand-in."

If the actor had this request, young Gilbert would not refuse.

Although he does not meet the standards of an action movie actor, Christian Bale is still able to shoot most of the action scenes after training.

Christian Bale's temper has also become worse as his status has risen in recent years. It is rumored that during the filming of "Terminator 2018", Christian Bale scolded Charles Gibson because of the assistant director's mistake in the production.

In just three minutes, Charles Gibson was scolded more than sixty times. People present later said that Charles Gibson was really strong to survive so many scolds.

However, no matter how hot-tempered an actor is, he will calm down once he joins Gilbert's crew.

"Terminator 2018" director Joseph McGinty-Nichol simply couldn't suppress Christian Bale because he wasn't big enough.

When Charlize Theron was filming "Snow White and the Huntsman", she was even more domineering and unscrupulous, and the director was completely suppressed by her.

At the recent preview of "Snow White and the Huntsman", some fans commented that Snow White was completely crushed by the Queen.

Kristen Stewart is like a clown in front of Charlize Theron. If he could, he would choose the queen.

Faced with the powerful Charlize Theron, the American idol Kristen Stewart was crushed and at a loss.

If Gilbert Jr. was directing, the roles of both parties wouldn't be so unbalanced.

But director Rupert Sanders was not very famous, and he had no idea what to do when faced with a top star like Charlize Theron.

It can be said that Universal Pictures made a mistake in this move, but perhaps this is also the effect that Universal Pictures wanted to see.

When it comes to playing little Gilbert, Christian Bale becomes a good boy. Not to mention losing his temper, you rarely even see him with a stern face.

Of course, the situation with The Dark Knight Rises is different from that of Terminator 2018. This film has a much higher chance of success, so it is normal to be happy.

In addition, there are Commissioner Gordon, Lucius Fox, and the newly joined John Blake and Miranda Tate, all of whom have unique styling and costume design.

But the most eye-catching one is Catwoman played by Anne Hathaway.

1 meters tall, perfect body proportions, and slender straight legs.

With a swan-like proud neck and peak beauty, Anne Hathaway is the most beautiful Catwoman to date.

This was not just said by Gilbert Jr., but was unanimously recognized by the entire crew.

Charles Roven looked at Anne Hathaway, who was wearing a black tights and riding a bat motorcycle for photos, and said to Gilbert Jr.: "Your interest in tights has not changed."

Gilbert shrugged and said, "Don't you think Jacqueline is very similar to the prototype of Catwoman, the legendary Hollywood actress Hyde Lamarr?"

"really."

Charles Rowan praised: "Your vision is not exaggerated. You are never wrong when it comes to beauties."

Anne Hathaway has an advantage over Scarlett because of her height and figure. Scarlett is limited by her height and has short legs.

But when Anne Hathaway's long legs appear, no man will not be moved.

In terms of design, Catwoman's design is very delicate. Gilbert Jr. required Catwoman's tights to be practical and beautiful, especially the ear design, which was very ingenious.

Gilbert Jr. requested that Catwoman be designed to look as agile as a cat, but not to look like a cat.

The function of the ears is very important and can be used as night vision goggles.

In addition, Catwoman's clothing is mainly black, so that she can blend into the night at any time. (End of this chapter)
