In the IMAX theater in Chicago, James Cameron hugged his chest with one hand and held up his chin with the other, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

Like him, Duke Rosenberg is a typical commercial director. The difference is that the other party is a very prolific commercial director.

In the eyes of James Cameron, the film "The Dark Knight" is also full of commercial elements. He has seen all Duke's movies and can tell that this film, like "The Matrix", combines business and speculation almost perfectly.

Even if he doesn't pay much attention, he can still see the thoughts brought by the film, such as the simplest proposition, justice and evil.

Even if evil reaches its peak, there is still a legal system and the moral power of society that naturally restricts and confronts it.

But justice is not.

Justice is consistent with the law. In many cases, the law does not have a natural motivation to restrain behaviors based on justice. It is precisely because justice has a demand that is consistent with the law and morality that it has a layer of cloak that confuses people's judgments than evil. Law and morality are far less vigilant than when they face evil. Therefore, when people with extreme justice lose their self-restraint, the destructive power it produces may be more terrifying than extreme evil.

As a super Spider-Man fan and a director who once wanted to direct Spider-Man, Cameron naturally associated these with superheroes.

This represents a situation for superheroes. They hold powerful forces in their hands to exert extreme justice, but whether this power is abused is only bound by the superhero's own moral power.

In a perfect rule of law society, almost all potential destructive forces are bound, balanced and offset by law, so the superhero, originally born to maintain social justice, has become the most vulnerable part of this system, because there is nothing else to restrain him except himself.

Rewinding his thoughts, Cameron refocused on the movie.

Batman won the personal battle with the Joker, but lost the Battle of Gotham's soul. The consequences of Harvey Dent's fall were serious. In order to save everything, Batman refused to resist the charge of killing Harvey Dent, becoming the object of being despised and becoming the real Dark Knight.

The righteous Batman eventually became a prisoner who fled with guilt. The two-faced man who lost his nature was mourned as a hero, and even the evil clown ended with pride.

There has never been such a dark ending for a superhero movie.

Looking at Batman limping away, Kyle felt heartbroken. Superheroes are really not something that humans do!

The ultimate evil of the Joker can be unscrupulous, but Batman has to use morality to restrain his ultimate justice. Because he knows that his morality is the only safety plug that restrains his own strength. Once he passes it, he may become unmatched from the Joker, or even more dangerous.

For Gotham, Batman could become anyone, and he did.

After watching the movie for so many years, and being a huge fan of Batman, seeing Batman's back as he went away and recalling the plot he just saw, many things made Kyle feel unique.

The Joker said to Batman. "You make me complete."

In Kyle's view, sadly, the facts are just the opposite. It should be that the existence of the Joker perfected the existence of Batman.

Because evil that reaches the pinnacle can exist alone from justice that reaches the pinnacle, and justice that reaches the pinnacle cannot be separated from evil that reaches the pinnacle, justice never gives evil reasons, but the existence of evil fulfills justice.

This sentence is actually what Batman said to the Joker.

A thought suddenly popped up in Kyle's mind. Perhaps this sentence was what Bush wanted to say to Laden?

"The righteous man who sanctions evil within the legal framework is regarded as a hero, and the righteous man who has the power over the law but uses morality to restrain himself can only be a knight."

A voice that talked to himself came from beside him, "Batman is destined to be unable to become a hero in a bright world. Only when darkness comes can he appear, cautiously and restrainedly sweep away the darkness, and helplessly become a knight born of darkness."

Kyle nodded and said, "Unrestricted ultimate justice is not only not the happiness of superheroes, but their original sin."

The thoughts this "Dark Knight" brings to people are so profound! He couldn't help but sigh.

The film has reached the end, and Kenneth Turan has separated from the plot and is more thinking from his own perspective.

Although the media had various publicity and hype before, after watching "The Dark Knight", he truly regretted the early death of Heath Ledger, and the other party really played the role of clown.

Compared with Heath Ledger's clown, Jack Nicholson's version is the "circus clown". It's not that Heath Ledger's acting skills must surpass Jack Nicholson, but Duke Rosenberg's clown has much more fun than that one.

In Christian legend, the way the devil Satan wins the world is to capture the soul of human beings, while the clown uses the same logic. He is not interested in money at all. He once burned the piles of money and said, "This city deserves a tasteful criminal." He also said to Batman, "You should know that I am not interested in money. I am not that kind of person. Don't downgrade me to that kind of person."

The clown is interested in imposing his logic on the world around him.

"A great director sets up an outstanding role, and this role sets up the director's works even more great!"

After saying this in his heart, Kenneth Tulan stood up and applauded the film like the people around him. This wonderful video is definitely worthy of his applause.

In the IMAX theater in Chicago, although a few viewers left the stage early, it did not prevent the film from falling out of its subtitles and applause from thundering. However, unlike Duke's past videos, there was less excitement on the audience's faces, and more fatigue and feelings.

This is a superhero movie that is not a superhero movie, but it is by no means a popcorn movie!

Most of the viewers who have watched "The Dark Knight" have such ideas.

It seemed to be tortured by the heavy theme of the film, and the applause gradually faded away before it lasted for too long. Countless people walked to the front row and congratulated Duke and the crew members.

“Duke, the effect of imax is amazing.”

The person standing opposite is James Cameron, who seems to be still recalling the imax shot of "The Dark Knight", "It brings completely more visual impact than I expected."

Duke shook his hand and suggested, "You can consider using this technique in Avatar."

"I'm just thinking this way." James Cameron had obviously made a decision.

James Cameron just left, a tall girl came over, and she stretched out her hand, "Congratulations, Duke, although the video is not the type I like, it is really shocking."

"Thank you." Duke gently held Taylor Swift's hand.

The film screening ended. After a simple curtain call, Duke led the entire crew to the press conference, and a large number of reporters were already waiting here.

As soon as the questioning session began, the reporter's question was aimed at Duke.

The New York Times reporter first asked, "Director Rosenberg, what prompted you to create Batman so 'human'?"

"As we all know, in the DC comics, Superman is the representative of idealization and possesses all the virtues of human beings; and Batman needs to be humanized more, without so many noble sentiments, virtues and idealization shackles. He is also a person who is difficult to distinguish between good and evil."

Duke thought for a moment and said, "He is very humane when doing things, and sometimes a little political. This is why I like Batman over Superman. Where Batman appears, there is no good or evil, no right or wrong, no black and white. I want to consider some issues through such a situation. In reality, no one can overestimate the law, even the ‘compulsory police’ cannot.”

As the leading actor in the film, Christian Bale is also the focus of the interview.

A reporter from The Washington Post asked, "Mr. Bell, as an actor, do you really feel like you can find anything in the gorgeous special effects and the deafening big bang? Two more times?"

Bell didn't seem to hear the hidden provocation, but said, "The main reason is that I like working with Duke, and Duke fully understands that using special effects and explosions alone cannot make a movie. To be precise, the story is still based on the story, and then there are many spectacular episodes in the whole process. Can you understand what I mean? Even if you meet all the conditions I mentioned above, whether you can make a movie is still the director."

“What makes you confident?”

Previously, reporters hit a soft nail in Duke, and their goal shifted to Christian Bale, "Is there really a third Batman movie?"

"The War Moment was a start, and we created it together, and while the result was not something I could control, I was involved in the whole process. When I started to understand the story told in The Dark Knight, I was particularly hoping that Batman would end in at least one trilogy."

Speaking of this, Christian Bale looked at Duke, "The question now is, if there was really an episode three, would Duke Rosenberg be the director? Because for me, I can't imagine what the Batman movie would look like without Duke!"

The premiere of "The Dark Knight" has ended. Although it has aroused strong response from the premiere audience, whether it can be truly successful depends on whether the market will accept it. (To be continued.)
