yes. It was believed that Batman killed Dent and was on the run.

Ok, thank you. Then yeah, I will believe that BW went reclusive a while later so that it didn't look so strange. He could always say he lost his faith in humanity after Dent was "murdered" and disappear. Still in my mind BTW.

It could also be said that Bruce was still mourning Rachel.

Nah. They didn't go missing at the same time. It talked about Bruce Wayne pushing the fusion reactor for like 3 years. Then they figured out it could be weaponized and that's when he becomes a recluse.

Agreed. When SOIAF booke described Joffery's foppy "wormy lipped,"appearance, I thought they nailed the casting when they chose little Jackie Gleason. That kid looks perfect for the role.

I thought the movie was pretty entertaining outside of the whole batman needing help eating his waffels and wiping his own ass before miraculously turning into an unstoppable force minutes later thang. That was lame.

I think batman was just a depressed ass that needed his bed made. Apparently never took care of his injuries either

My only problem with that was the knee. He needed a cane, but a fancy brace made him able to kick rocks apart? I know we suspend a lot of disbelief in regards to the tech in these movies, but C'MON.

**mikeyis4dcats.** · 08-05-2012, 05:46 PM

saw this mentioned elsewhere, and it's spot on.

Bane sounds like Winnie The Pooh.

The fact that Bruce was with Cat Woman? The Fact that he didn't die?

Just a little confused

Batman does not get a happy ending,
it worked for the movies
I liked it but really the Batman needed a death, Bruce wayne can live on,
wonder if him an Selina are pulling off hiests for fun

and no ****ing Robin sequels, Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake, Stephanie Brown, Carrie Kelly but would not mind seeing Damian Wayne try it
out geek that

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.

the whole talia thing threw me, cause I thought he wasn;t following continuity, shit the lifted lined from miller's daek nknight returns, and the no man;s land arcs, felt like an idiot,

but he ****ed her
we will see Damian Wayne

[QUOTE=Cassel's Reckoning;8775911]I didn't even come up with that, I'm hardly trying to be critical. But it hits home pretty hard.

What Batman did didn't feel like a Batman solution. It felt like generic action hero bullshit.

Lazy, sloppy, unsatisfying.[/Q

I disagree, he planned for his death, and laid down framework for his legacy to continue on,
and he must have also planed for his life
when he ended up with Selina in the cafe , for Alfred to see.
also nasty dick move to make alfred think he was dead
so since Talia is dead ans those fraudulent claims must have been figured out
who owns wayne corp?
