I mean, who the hell wants a WW2 French version of Batman.

The thing about Bane that I did not understand is the fact that in the movie he built up this big reputation of being such a bad guy, developed a following where guys would die for you just to be the stooge for a woman who wanted to destroy Gotham City and Batman. Seems like a lot to do to help someone get revenge. I still think that Nolan should have gone in the other direction and Batman should have been emboldened by Rachel's death and been everywhere. Gotham should have been the safest city on the planet because if you even Jay walked Batman would be there to set you straight. They started that in The Dark Knight when those two guys were about to deal drugs then the bat signal went up and one of them backed down. Rises should have expanded on that.
just want to respond because I am 1000000% on your side, as well as MILLIONS of other people are as well. A few people on a Toy Message board who are nit picking things to death just to make jokes is not the overall world census of how loved TDKRises movie is or the trilogy. if people need some kind of proof, imdb shows how many people gave a rating for a film. TDKR has over 770,000 people who rated it and it got an 8.6/10. The Dark Knight has had over 1 Million people rate the film and its a 9.0/10, and Batman Begins has over 667,000 people rate it and it got an 8.3/10....lower than Rises.
10,20, even 50 people on a toy site is not anywhere near a majority, and there isn't even 50 people on here right now saying negative things about TDKR, its like 5-10 people or so, and its the same people.
so anyone who claims the film wasn't successful or that the majority of people don't like it is just flat out wrong. Its just geeks being geeks who post the same crap over and over and over which makes it look like there is a lot of negativity, but overall world view there isnt a lot of negativity. The world view of Rises and the Trilogy is that it was a HUGE success, Rises alone made over 1 Billions dollars and Nolan's trilogy is enshrined in Pop Culture forever as one of the best trilogies ever, and the best Batman films to-date.
And there isn't really need to even defend the films, but its just annoying seeing people tear things down just for the sake of tearing things down. Not even sure why? Out of jealousy? Its like they are jealous Nolan made great films and has made other great films. I guess when someone rises to the top, certain people try to tear them down, and it happens with filmmakers. Its like when people bash on George Lucas, but like every single one of us lives were effected in a huge way, a positive way with his first Star Wars films. Give atleast .001% respect if you can...I know its difficult for some...
ok theres my rant. sorry. I hate these movie threads.
It would have had a bigger effect if Batman was too worn out from 8 years of fighting petty criminals than just Bruce laying in bed all day. If Batman was too tired by the time Bane came it would have had a stronger impact.
Would he do that by crying a lot?Then Alfred pushes him to get back in the game.

Pretty much so.
Some say Nolan would never allow his integrity as an artist to be bought.
I say bull ****.
You mean, like Charles de Gaulle?
I'm shocked you guys hated Bane. I thought he made for an awesome villain, he stole every scene he was in.

pturtle,
My suggestion is that you really should grab a cup of coffee, relax on couch, place your feet up on a comfy padded stool and go ahead and read DiFabio's posts on TDKR.

I thought he was pretty good until the swerve at the end that negated a lot of the bad-assery that he apparently had. I didn't even mind the voice so much.
Agreed. It's so crazy how such tiny little tweaks could have been made so that you'd basically have the exact same movie but just more plausible (for lack of a better word) and satisfying all around.
Want to fast forward 8 years and have Batman walk with a limp? Fine, say he was fighting crime all those years and was suffering from injuries.
Want the stock exchange night to be his first televised appearance since TDK? Fine, just say he was like Bigfoot for 8 years, kicking ass but even more in the shadows and always one step ahead of the cops and news crews.
Want Talia to be revealed as the big villain? Fine, but can Bane's tears and her speech about him being a victim of love. Just have her go on an equally maniacal rant that involves Bane as her equal and partner in arms.
Want Bruce to retire? Fine, but have SOME obvious indication that if he's ever REALLY needed or that his replacement doesn't cut it...he'll be back.
The easy change would have been TDKR picking up as Bruce is fleeing the scene from TDK. He gets home, Bane is there waiting, and beats him down. Then Nolan has his reason for Bruce being out for 8 years. He comes back when Bane finally makes his move to torture the entire city. Give Scarcrow more of a part. Bruce spends the first part of the 8 years feeling sorry for himself, and genuinely beaten. Then Alfred pushes him to get back in the game.
But as I have said I like TDKR as is. But yeah little changes improve things.
