The Dark Knight Rises *SPOILERS*

[Sachiel]

I wish we would get new transfers for Begins and TDK (and hoping the same thing doesn't happen for TDKR as they did for TDK).

Improve some of the choppy editing, fill out the story some more to smooth out the passing of time and redo (not remove, redo) Talia's death and I will be content.

Almost, one more critical thing, If BW had sacrificed his life and died at the end to save Gotham and passed on his legacy I would've been very moved by this movie and trilogy, but by having him survive removed all my emotional connections to TDKR.

As it stands now Dredd stirred my emotions more than TDKR.

When Nolan is 88 years old he will come clean and tell the world what really happened behind the scenes.

For a movie that made over a billion he's pretty silent about it post release, or is that me.

This post almost makes me want to quit the internet.

It's pretty hilarious.

I agree with everything except for the death thing. There was no way Batman was ever going to die in a film. Regardless if the story ended.

Kids still see this movie. And kids are dumb. So they would be confused when Batman shows up again.


Sans that, you're on the money honey bunny.

The movie would have sucked if Bruce Wayne had died. Until it was clear he was smarter than that, I was ready to hate it.

^^^The ending made me think of you.

"The Bat don't sacrifice".

After watching Avengers again last night in HD, pffttt..i;m not buying that on Blu and rather waiting for TDKR since it was a overall better film.

Why can't he die and leave his legacy to Blake, then Blake dies and it continues.

Don't worry, BW will continue to live on in the comics and reboots.

With this series it would've been touching with his sacrifice to save Gotham.

Alfred's crying meant nothing to me, it feels flat after you see BW alive.

His crying meant that when he thought Bruce was dead he was sad. When he found out he was alive there's no need to be sad and his tears shouldn't mean anything anyways.

Then just cut the crying part out and go straight to the happiness.

Wouldn't be a very fun build up to watching all the pieces fall back into place.

Why does it bug you so much, it's not like I can change the movie, your precious ending is still intact.

Sheesh, bunch of drama queens.

One even wants to quit the internet.

I hate sacrifice. I hate Batman being a sacrificer more than anything. Batman is too awesome, too smart, and too good to sacrifice. Sacrifice is immoral, stupid, and lame.

I'm just saying I wouldn't stand for it. You don't gotta be like that.

Well

him dying from saving Gotham to him immediately retiring after saving Gotham is a very fine line though.

Great, he lived, we always knew that he was cunning and resourceful, but now he's a happy BW.

Isn't a happily retired BW just as lame as a dead BW?

Oh, and

 

[devilof76]

No.

Batman is awesome because he's protecting Gotham for himself. He loves the city. It's his. Dead, he's lost everything. Alive, having left the city in capable hands after defeating its worst enemy (in the context of the films), he can actually enjoy his life now without having to be Batman.

At a certain point, being Batman becomes a sacrifice. He beat the odds.

You're just another villain!

Alfred was more or less crying because of the "failure" of the promise he made to Bruce's parents, to protect Bruce. Realizing he was alive and not saying anything at the end of the film was Alfred keeping and fulfilling that promise.

Alfred was crying because The Avengers destroyed it in the Box Office and it was a better movie.

And that Amazing Spider-Man exists. Probably more the latter then the former.

how did avengers 'destroy' TDKR at the box office ?? avengers was in the amazing fad that is 3D (so made more in overpriced tickets) Nolan doesnt fall for that crap. TDKR was one of if not THE biggest 2D opening of any movie ever.....lets see if Wheddon can make 3 films that are as solid as action packed and as genre defining as Nolan has...
