So I just saw The Dark Knight Rises

[spire]

why are ignoring the hints the film gives. Heck, they aren't even hints, they are just outright statements he is still alive
1) Fox didn't know Batman had fixed the autopilot months before. The massive hint being that Batman did not pilot up to detnation point.
2) He's in the fucking cafe
3) Catwoman is in the fucking Cafe
4) Alfred and Bruce Wayne nod to each other as if to say "so the plan comes full circle" - theres absolutely no fucking way that this was anybody but Bruce Wayne. Absolutely no way.

I'm sorry but he's 100% alive, just he's moved on and changed his identity, because Gotham had nothing but pain for him. I mean really, the whole film is dropping hints towards Batman's retirement then it shows him actually enjoying this retirement and you still think he's dead?
wuuuuuut?

Batman couldnt POSSIBLY have jumped out of his aircraft. I mean, NOBODY could survive a 15-20ft drop onto asphalt.

Spoiler: Batman is not dead.

He returns towards the end.of.knightfall

He's a quadraplegic for a while and is eventually healed

None of you are correct. After the credits roll Batman washes up on a beach & taken to Saito, an old man waiting to die alone... Should've stuck around

Batception!

I wasn't happy with my first viewing so I'm going again.

I'm definitely in two (or more) minds about this.

• Batman should have died. I wanted to believe he had, what with him being in the plane, and Alfred is just a mental, but as mentioned the Selina Kyle thing makes no sense.
  Even mentioning Robin was so, so gay.
  Bane was quality, voice was weird but got used to it. I guess they did well to make it decipherable from the original version. I'd really like to have known more about his mask/injuries. His death was lame.
  Catwoman better than expected, still had some terrible lines.
  The whole Alfred/Bruce thing was clunky and just a bit whack.
  The pit/prison was cool, ridiculous idea, but cool.
  The Neeson/Cotillard twist was good I thought, but sort of skewed everyone else's characters/motivation

I should probably stop there, this could go on for pages.

Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Once Again Because People Wouldn't Shut Up About It

Have yet to see the movie though, so I'm talking shit here.

[antman]

Am I the ONLY person in the WORLD who was dissapointed?

[kidshuffle]

^Probably.

It wasn't the best movie of all time, but it was worth seeing in theaters. I wouldn't watch it anywhere else

[AntlionUK]

Godfather 3 vibes

[spire]

I wouldnt go THAT far...

[_TraX_]

good movie. it makes me hopeful for a new, less gay Robin.

[node]

Thought it was really good! Some absolutly ridiculous stuff in it like the nuclear bomb detonating etc..But it was just really enjoyable...Doesn't beat Dark Knight tho which I just watched again.

I also felt they ruined the film by making the stakes too high too early. By introducing the bomb to annihilate the city so early they set the bar of tension to high and the film couldn't carry that aspect of "omg what if it goes off" all the way through to the end. In another way, this is where Batman 2 is far superior. Joker raises the stakes little by little and turns it into more of a game as he does more and more crazy shit. I just felt once that Stadium explosion went off, there was nothing else to really happen other than for batman to come back and save the day, which is basically all that happened for the next 40 minutes to an hour as we waited for batman to get better so he could escape.

this is probably my only problem with tdkr. With the first two nolan managed to make 2 superhero movies where it isnt 24/7 action but still builds tension so nicely but with this one it went a bit Die Hard-ish with the movie goin into high octane action and explosions for nearly an entire hour, making it more tiring and predictable than usual

and yeah I kinda would've liked for the movie to end without the unnecessary restaurant scene lol, or atleast maybe only show alfred looking up and smiling contently or something; even for a fanboy like me seeing batman survive such a huge fucking explosion kinda ruined it

[Squarebear]

And I just LOVE this movie. The small references to the earlier movies, like Crane being that judge etc. and the whole thing with Miranda Tate being that child in the Pit and not Bane... It's just amazing. Plus I actually think Levitt fits the role of Robin perfectly.
