The Dark Knight Rises has been tied to Murders, Robberies, and this IDIOT!

Man, this movie just can't seem to get a break! Shame too because it's a solid flick and deserves better.

I think I was generous using the word "idiot", there were plenty more explicit words that came to mind.

@ CPBuff22

yeah you're right "f*ckin pricks".

americans...

@SUPERMAN2013 - You should take a gander at the article about the robberies that took place in Mexico. The violence surrounding TDKR is not happening just in the States.

Huh? Sounds like he was just excited, like when the opening credits rolled and I stood up and shouted, "WOO HOO!"

@DarkGrifter in this case your absolutely correct. But in the robberies that took place in Mexico and the man who was going to kill his coworker in Philadelphia I don't think it had anything to do with the sensationalism by the media. Both those events had to have much deeper underling causes.

by the way since when is not there a day when there is no crime murder in mexico

This was just a misunderstanding, but plenty of other idiots have tried to create panic during TDKR by shouting "Everybody get down!" or things like that.

Trolls will always take advantage of these situations.

lol this very funny and yes an idiot XD sounds like a troll who wanted to just have fun XD haha

another nut job that just wants to get in the news.i wonder if people still don't think that the aurora shooting and the bad PR like this has not hurt TDKR

@Sabconth the gunmen in Mexico wore Batman masks while robbing theaters during Midnight showings of TDKR. Not any other super hero masks nor one of the huge number of lucha libre mask available all over Mexico. The robbery was directly linked to TDKR.

And its inexplicable that these things are happening in the third movie in a trilogy and no violent out breaks occurred during the first two films. Also this isn't the first superhero movie this year. Avengers & Amazing Spider-Man didn't see this kind of violence.

The fact that all these crazies are for some reason attracted to TDKR is what is inexplicable.

Can you honestly say you can easily find an explanation to the violence surrounding TDKR? Because if you didn't understand the word inexplicable means Difficult or impossible to explain or account for. So if you have an easy explanation as to what we can do to stop this violence please share it as it would help stop people from being hurt.

WHAT THE [frick]......



[frick] YOU JAMES HOLMES...
I hope your ass rots in prison

I hope man of steel doesn't have any of the shit

All I know is that James Holmes created many Bruce Waynes that night :(

@CPBuff22

Imagine you're a robber who plans to steal from a film at this very date in time, which film do you decide to steal from?

Moonrise Kingdom or The Dark Knight Rises?

Obviously you'd pick the one with most attendees and is most popular with adults, that would mean TDKR.

They robbed from that showing because it was most packed, not because anything in the movie inspired them too.

So far only 1 crazy has emerged, James Holmes, and he was up to the eyeballs on vicodin. Maybe he was influenced by the Joker character maybe he wasn't, but all the other wannabe copycats are trying to emulate him, not the movie.

You make it sound like this film is the cause of an epidemic eruption of sudden widespread violence, it isn't.

A lone guy did a fu*ked up thing and that's all there has been so far. (Touch wood)

That alone is much too much, but if you think analysing the movie will provide an answer you're wrong.

I don't know how to stop future shootings like the one in Aurora or Columbine or Fort Hood, but I do know that since nothing has changed, more of these events are sadly going to probably be inevitable.

@CPBuff22

Of course people are acting like fools and trolls, but they're doing it because they enjoy pissing people off and find it funny, not because they're crazy.

The guy in philly who was on his way to kill his boss was obsessed by the colorado shooting, not the film.

@dcjohnny & @CPBuff22

Why do people panic and freak out if someone yells or does something suspicious at a Dark Knight Rises showing?

Oh gee I don't know.

Maybe it's because a nutjob shot up a theatre during a premier of the film less than 2 weeks ago and everyone is still on edge about being inside a cinema. So much in fact that 25% of people in a recent poll said they were too scared to even go to the movies.

These same things happened after Columbine and 9/11. People got startled by the slightest things shortly after those events and it's no different here too.

Everyone is jumpy at the theatre right now, it's just how it is.

The film is not to blame, the murderer James Holmes is.

lmao at this news.

@Sabconth that is the intriguing & frustrating part. Why is so much violence including what James Holmes did attracted to this specific movie. I mean James Holmes didn't even see the entire movie and was in prison asking the guards how it ended. So it can't be content. That leaves very few things I can think of.

Is it something to do with Batman in general that causes this violence in some unstable minds? Could it be the amount of advertising for this film? I can honestly say I was tired of hearing about TDKR before Avengers came out. It graced Entertainment Weekly THREE TIMES before release. Or is it something else?

These are things I don't have an answer for but its an interesting situation to ponder.
