So is Alfred going to go help BatRobinNightwingman or is he on his own.

Bruce and Alfred are basically retired in the Nolan-verse version. The future of JGL's character in a non-existent movie will likely rely on a different ensemble to help him.
 
Wait, so Blake has a Batcave under a home for orphans?

Is this some weird version of X-Men where Blake trains kids who had their parents murdered to be Batman?

I thought it was maybe a different location. He had directions and stuff, "under my house" would have been much easier if it was the same place.

you're giving someone feedback in that case. Applause to an inanimate object is kind of weird.

I actually have a real question, why did Bruce see Ras in the prison? I presume it was just some fever dream, but he imparted actual information to Bruce which he otherwise doesn't seem to have been able to know.

I could be misremembering the scene, but Bruce is essentially putting together pieces of a puzzle in his head, and Ra's is kind of his mentor guiding him..

Ultimately... Bruce does come to the wrong conclusion in believing that Bane is Ra's child and not someone else.

Because, he only knew that Bane was in the Pit and Ra's lost his family.

Batman Inc.

It's a DC comic arc, Batman goes global and trains an army to follow in his foot steps.

Well he went through the Tumbler entrance... I can't imagine.. Blake can use the entrance in Wayne Manor... without drawing attention to himself all the time.

Jokes aside, I'd pay to get the Batman Inc movie made. :lol

As jarring as it would be having multiple bat-suits on screen ..

Yeah, so he is a bad guy what is your point? Arkham isn't a jail. It's an insane asylum. Unlike the Joker Scarecrow is clearly sane, just a vile criminal. He would be put in the regular prision system. He never shows any sign of being insane and not in control of his actions. He has no place being instituted. He is a criminal who'd be in jail.

In the first film he has a breakdown.

I disagree the audience should automatically presume the merc was Ras. They hide her friend's face too, by the same logic, the audience should presume Ras was also the guy in the prison.

But thanks, I think that's kind of a shitty answer, but I can certainly believe it's true.

Conceptually, the unnamed Pit in the Dark Knight Rises is the Nolan-verse version of The Lazarus Pit, something linked to Ra's Al Ghul's relative immortality. I believe the word 'reborn' is used by Bane in reference to it.

Why would the audience assume that the guy in the pit was Ra's? No man has ever gotten out of the pit remember? That was said several times and it is again reiterated in Bane's twist and surprise that Bruce had come back. No man has ever climbed out of that pit until Bruce Wayne did it.

Hiding the merc's face and that of the individual protecting the child was an intentional choice so as to emphasize the reveal later on in the film and the film intentionally implied that Bane himself was the child (to create the Taiia twist) by drawing parallels to the 'born in darkness' description.

Basically, hiding the character's face should have immediately spawned the question of 'who is this guy and why is he important to the character of Bane?' which is then linked to another yet to be answered question, 'how was Bane linked to the League of Shadows?'

Somewhere along the line there is an unstated and unknown link between Ra's and Bane that pushes toward the conclusion that Bruce makes and say's for the audience's benefit. This then should have made the Talia twist more surprising, except for some forced foreshadowing several times earlier, mostly due to the stock exchange plot (which was written poorly, but maybe because audience members themselves wouldn't be familiar with more financially driven technicalities.)
 
I always thought the clapping was a way of letting everyone around you know that what we all just experienced was awesome.

Maybe i am dumb.

Nope, like Solo mentioned earlier he'd be more cerebral. Definitely not menacing since he's not driven by rage and guilt like Bruce. He'd be more driven by duty.

Dammit we need to stop talking about this.

Solo's script for The Dark Knight Lives is already in the early stages of development.
 
So you guys have plans for rewatch?

I'm going to watch it in Edgewater on Tuesday, then again on Saturday at Liberty Center IMAX.

Maybe it'll break the fourth time barrier - I've only done that for one movie: Finding Nemo.

We'll see. (Probably will :lol)

I would never have presumed Bane was Ras' child. Unfortunately, I knew he had a daughter, so I'd already guessed it, but even so, the fact he was kicked out of the league to me would most likely have made me presume his membership was not because of his lineage.

Huh? No, he didn't. The ghost leads Bruce to think Bane is his son. However, we learn this is false. Therefore, we can assume it was just a hallucination that helped Bruce piece together information imparted to him by the prison doctor. It was his subconscious mind trying to fill in the blanks... and drawing the wrong conclusions.
 
Why the fuck can't you clap after a good movie? Makes no sense...All 3 showings i went to they cheered 3 times. First shot of Batman, Alfred's nod to Bruce, and the credits. Saw nothing dumb about it.

The vision doesn't tell him Bane is his son as far as I remember, it tells him, he was the mercenary. Bruce already thought he knew Bane was the kid.
 
I don't think clapping is a natural reaction to something, like for example laughing is. Doing it in a cinema isn't any different than doing it home alone.
 
Cinema is an evolution of plays at the theater which feature clapping.

Why is it odd to feature clapping of a filmed movie?

The clapping is for the actors, the scene, and the director. I see nothing wrong with it.
