Bruce could teach him to fight. He also could just continue using stuff Fox gives him. JGL is obviously part of the loop so I'm sure he will be taken care of by Bruce's people.

Actually three of the Robins did try to become Batman during Battle for the Cowl. Dick Grayson has become Batman on 3 separate occasions- one of those stints lasting more than a year.
I think Batman is the symbol. It doesn't matter who takes on the Cowl, but I do think it needs to be Batman. |

It wasn't about climbing. Bruce didn't struggle with the climb. It was about that one jump. That one moment. If he had the rope and he failed... no big loss. He could try tomorrow. Without the rope it was all or nothing, and at that moment when he prepared for that jump the fear of failure would push him to exceed himself. |

I've herd people say that this was the darkest of the three. Not sure I would say the same thing. The Joker's character made that movie dark. I'm not sure if it was Heath Ledger or the media hoopla surrounding his death shortly after that made that movie seem like more than it might have been, though. Anyway, I enjoyed the last one. Very well done.

It seems a lot of people (not just here, but on other boards, reviews, etc) are saying they felt Bane was neutered in the second act, that it was a big mistake to take all the wind out of him in favor of the "lame" Talia twist. People are saying they don't care about Talia at all, that they want more Bane. I happen to disagree, but it seems a common issue with the film.
For those who didn't like the twist and felt it hindered Bane, can I ask how you felt about Ra's reveal in Batman Begins? Because that is sort of the same thing, isn't it? Scarecrow seems to be the villain, he sort of disappears later in the movie, has a final scene that feels maybe anti-climactic, and all in favor of revealing that Ducard is alive and is, in fact, Ra's al Ghul. If Batman Begins didn't bother you, but TDKR did, may I ask why? Is it how powerful Bane is versus how powerful Scarecrow is? Is it because we had more time to invest in Ducard/Ra's? I'm just curious. This isn't meant to be a challenge or anything, just conversation. |

It totally makes the hyper-intelligent Bane look like a ****ing idiot for not figuring it out. Which leads me to... Quote:

I don't think there was anything for Bane to figure out. Also, I'm not sure how long Bane was in prison before Talia busted him out. Actually, now I don't remember, do they ever tell us how Bane got out? |

Bane was rescued by Ra's and his team of mercenaries. He was chilling out in some corner of the prison with cloth covering his bloody mandible, presumably living in excruciating pain. |

I'm guessing had Bane still be in prison once he returned to full strength, he probably would have made the jump. So I don't see that (the rope/escape/Talia reveal) as taking away from/neutering the character. |
