A minor spoiler only if you saw this interview and then went and saw the movie with this still in your head. He quickly changed subjects to the first movie where he actually drove the batmobile.

Yeah, but actually the dark Knight is full of CGI especially the truck and chase scene...like almost all shots have very well-hidden CGI elements. I know because friends of mine worked on the movie. It's just that when it's well done they are hard to spot (but if you think the batbike cannot possibly stop and go up a wall and turn around, you can guess it's digital :). )

"People are getting jaded with CGI" - Even back in 2008. Now, 15 years have passed, and most of us still gobble up the same trash in the cinemas, then buy the movies on streaming services and even buy memorabilia from them... I'm not saying The Dark Knight Trilogy is bad, but what's in the cinemas nowadays, what's advertised, etc. And it started to go shit around 2008...

I have only one question? Is he nice, friendly guy in real life? I am sorry but I still can't get past his numerous portrayals of villains in movies and shows like Norman Stansfield in Léon: The Professional, Jean Baptiste Emanuel Zorg in The Fifth Element, Dr. Zachary Smith in Lost in Space, Mason Verger in Hannibal, Bill Carnegie in The Book of Eli, Vladislav Dukhovich in The Hitman's Bodyguard, Egor Korshunov in Air Force One, Ruber in Quest For Camelot and Lord Shen in Kung Fu Panda 2. I will always think of those horrible, evil, despicable men whenever I see him.

People always talk about Daniel Day Lewis. Don't get me wrong, he's great, but I think Oldman is better. Think of Bram Stoker's Dracula. Now think of True Romance. Now think of The Dark Knight films. Neither of those characters are anything alike. Physically, or verbally.
