People like Robin?

It was nothing more than Nolan trolling the audience and anyone familiar with the Robin character. In actuality, JGL's character is the next Batman. Not the Robin character.

There are four different Robins with four distinct personalities.

People have a different opinion for each.

Two of them have/or will become Batman.

Bane's line when he sees the bat signal on the bridge "That's impossible" came off as comical, it wasn't serious nor angry or frustrated. The way he said it made some folks, including myself laugh.

He should have said:

 

[ryutaro's mama]

I wish it were. While the fight was already awesome, breaking him in his own home would have been PERFECT. If you're going to base a movie around Knightfall, you might as well borrow the best part.

But then Blake would inherit a fixer upper.

 

[Messypandas]

Part of the incredible speech

Bane just sounds ridiculous to me. Like a campier version of Richard O'Brien off Crystal Maze. I half expected him to pull a harmonica out and offer Batman a physical

 

[mr. puppy]

I REALLY can't wait for the trilogy set...

Some parts I definitely needed subtitles and I say the same for TDK.

theres a lot of the movie online. it really helped me with some stuff.




also on a different note the prologue leaked like 6 months ago, and i still have no idea what was said during the opening scenes in the recut.

It almost was when you think about it. The whole fight took place beneath the R&D part of Wayne enterprises so essentially they WERE fighting on Bruce's turf.

Watching Batman Begins again, that final kick of Bane's is identical to the way Liam Neeson kicks him in the temple before he says "Death does not wait for you to be ready!". I think Bane also kicks him while he's down in the same way.

Maybe someone that's more emotionally in touch can explain it to me:

How would it have been disrespectful or in poor taste to at least reference the Joker? It almost seems more cruel to have his existence completely wiped from the film's universe, especially considering that this film brought back every other villain and major character (even ones that had already died!). I'm not talking about recasting him or dong some corny scene where he's shot in silhouette, but just finding some cool way of letting us know he's still out there.

Basically anything you have to say about the Joker would be read as a commentary on Heath. Nolan just chose to avoid it altogether.

If Avengers can get such an awesome blu ray set (with Criterion-esque new covers for each movie), I expect no less for a Dark Knight trilogy blu ray set.

[Alligatorjandro]

[ryutaro's mama]

No, but Konex is Modine.

The second he started talking about it being peace time and all that shit...well...

Batman says "Don't thank me yet."

 

[SCULLIBUNDO]

WHERE'SH THA TSHRIGGAH! WHERE'RSHET!?

He kept it locked down pretty well throughout the whole movie, then explodes at the end. :lol

 

[Alligatorjandro]

whatever happened to the mayor?

 

[FreshCakes]

I need to see this movie again, I'm resorting to watching scenes on youtube lol

 

[Dany]

WHERE'SH THA TSHRIGGAH! WHERE'RSHET!?

He kept it locked down pretty well throughout the whole movie, then explodes at the end. :lol

Yep, kinda goofy.

whatever happened to the mayor?

His box seat blew up in the explosion before the field blew up.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

whatever happened to the mayor?

He got blown up by Bane at the stadium.

I assume he's still the major after 8 years because of the Dent Act, lol

 

[ryutaro's mama]

Nothing beats

SWEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAR TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

 

[Dahbomb]

whatever happened to the mayor?

He died in the football stadium. There was an extra set of explosives just in his booth.

 

[Alligatorjandro]

worst mayor ever

 

[mugurumakensei]

whatever happened to the mayor?

His booth was blown up.

 

[Messypandas]

I just remembered about Bane hanging the bodies off the bridge. pretty fucked up.

One detail that felt a little glossed over was Gordon's family abandoning him. Must have really cut him having to sit on a lie

 

[SpeedingUptoStop]

whatever happened to the mayor?

Well, they showed a blast coming from inside the box seat room here was in, with glass breaking.


Then they show a box seats room exploding.



So I assume he's Superman in this universe, basically.

 

[Totakeke]

WHERE'SH THA TSHRIGGAH! WHERE'RSHET!?

And it was like missing an old friend.

Bane did what Joker couldn't.

Basically anything you have to say about the Joker would be read as a commentary on Heath. Nolan just chose to avoid it altogether.

Except that doesn't avoid it at all. Emitting his character from a film that re-unites literally every character from the previous films is also a commentary on Ledger.....and not a very positive one, IMO. It could pretty easily be interpreted as "Yeah, let's distance ourselves from this dead junkie."

 

[Alligatorjandro]

There was so much to this movie but it wasnt enough

 

[Messypandas]

He absorbed the shockwaves in his eyeliner

Had to be really bad for them to want to move TO Cleveland.

There's no way it can't be interpreted. But this way, it is only your interpretation, not Nolan's.

No one I know interpreted it as that.
