Dark Knight Premiere Shooting

Well the saying goes 'Genius Borderlines Insanity'. Has he been caught yet or do they just know who he is?

CHRISTOPHER NOLAN
James Holmes is a Savage

"Dark Knight Rises" director Christopher Nolan just released the following statement regarding the massacre in Colorado:

"Speaking on behalf of the cast and crew of 'The Dark Knight Rises', I would like to express our profound sorrow at the senseless tragedy that has befallen the entire Aurora community.

I would not presume to know anything about the victims of the shooting but that they were there last night to watch a movie. I believe movies are one of the great American art forms and the shared experience of watching a story unfold on screen is an important and joyful pastime.

The movie theatre is my home, and the idea that someone would violate that innocent and hopeful place in such an unbearably savage way is devastating to me.

Nothing any of us can say could ever adequately express our feelings for the innocent victims of this appalling crime, but our thoughts are with them and their families."
 
I just think too many people have too much access. I just watched Rampage the other night on Netflix. I enjoyed the movie, but after looking at the news, it reminded me alot of the movie. Check it out. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1337057/
I watched that film a few months ago, and that was also my first thought when I heard the news. I agree the movie was fairly enjoyable (decent acting and some good action), but I had to keep reminding myself that it was just a movie... it was quite disturbing in some places, purely because it was just full of very believable mindless violence.

I'm glad to hear they've arrested the guy who did this anyway. I hope they lock him up and throw away the key... never to even leave his cell!
 
more collateral damage

‘The Dark Knight Rises’ Screenings Go On

As more details regarding the mass shooting at a movie theater in Colorado emerge, national movie chains have no plans to cancel screenings of The Dark Knight Rises or other films.

Although all showtimes have been cancelled at the Century 16 theater in Aurora, Colo. — the location of the shooting — the show will go on in other parts of the country.

The two largest theater chains — Regal Entertainment and AMC Theatres — will continue to screen films as scheduled.

There may, however, be some caveats. In a statement, AMC Theatres told us, (emphasis ours):

At this time, our show schedules circuit-wide will not change. We will not allow any guests into our theatres in costumes that make other guests feel uncomfortable and we will not permit face-covering masks or fake weapons inside our buildings. If guests wish to exchange or refund any tickets, we will honor our existing policy and do as our guests wish. We are taking necessary precautions to ensure our guests who wish to enjoy a movie this weekend can do so with as much peace of mind as possible in these circumstances.

The theater chain also said that it is “deeply saddened by the Aurora tragedy” and expressed its gratitude to local law enforcement agencies and local security teams.

I still can't believe this has happened. Why are there such people in the world. While Im not the biggest believe in capital punishment but if Colorado has the death penalty I hope this guy gets it.
 
this is truly tragic.
all everyone wanted to do was to enjoy a premier screening of the film... then this happens..
apparently one of the girls who was killed was recently here in Toronto and narrowly missed the shooting that happened at the Eaton Center. It's a shame she was able to avoid one tragedy and get sucked into another. Truly a sad day. My heart goes out to all the families touched by this horrific incident.
 
They were talking on the morning news about how Warner bro's would stop showings of the movie. I laughed. Why do people from Colorado ruin so much. The first well known school shooting (Columbine) and now there are so many zero tolerance rules because of it.. **** them. And now theaters are going to ban full costumes.. **** that too.
