BEST MOVIES OF 2012 #2

THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

Alyson: “The film is is emotionally inspiring, aesthetically significant and critically important for America itself, however bad things happen in Aurora, Colorado, when the midnight screening of the film, a gunman dressed in tactical clothing, set off tear gas grenades and shot into the audience with mutiple firearms, killing twelve people.”
Nick: “That was really tragic, sadly, Warner Bros. Pictures cancelled the movie’s gala premieres in Japan, Mexico, and France, the promotions were also limited since then, but despite that, The Dark Knight Rises became the second highest grossing film of 2012, as well as the second highest grossing superhero film of all time.”
Alyson: “That’s really ironic.”
Nick: “Totally, Alyson, but we hope the tragedy like this will never ever happen again.”
