Now that I've had a chance to see this a couple of times, my thoughts on Bane. Its all off the cuff, so I might ramble a bit; the context is a thread where the OP wanted to know why Bane wasn't a...

I found some concept art for Bane's mask. Some of them are truly terrifying.

Nolan's Batman trilogy is self-contained. The next films will be reboots.

A biological weapon, like a dirty bomb or something similar would have been interesting as well. It'd be much more frightening, imo.

The thing is,Blake has no reason to name his vigilante Robin. Batman has pretty much been identified as Gotham's hero, so for this film universe it would be more sensible for him to assume the mantle...

You don't have to mark your spoilers in here brah! It's open fire.

I thought they were going to go the Dark Knight Returns route and have all of the orphans work for Bruce as his mini-army. That...

I feel silly for only just realizing that Bruce giving Blake access to the cave is sort of a reference to the ending of DKR where either Bruce or Batman was seen instructing the reformed Sons of the...

I've been hearing lots of rumblings of a reboot. Really, that's the way I'd want to go. That way we can have alternative takes on some of the villains like Scarecrow, who have much more potential in...

I almost teared up when Alfred was at the tombstones. Did it seem like Talia, Bane and Bruce shared the feeling of purposelessness? Alfred called Bruce out on going after Bane as...

Though Blake's first name is Robin, I think he can still be the Batman and be the "hero with a face" that Bruce talked about in TDK. Recall that Gotham has officially recognized Batman as a hero with...

I give it a 9/10. Would've liked more scenes of the Blackgate prisoners running roughshod over Gotham. The camera work was really great; Bane looked massive, especially during the Underground Army...

If it helps, recall that the National Guard was called in to deal with someone who'd blown up a hospital, killed a judge and the police comissioner. I'm certain that the Joker was taken into federal...

Food for thought gais: Bane was imprisoned for his father's crimes in the comics. Mitt Romney has been attacked for being born into wealth. Both have suffered due to their fathers. :ohmy:

Edit:...

@Shannon: Did they address Bane's anesthetic? His mask is supposed to supply him with the stuff; it keeps the pain from a past injury at a tolerable level. He may have taken a couple of shots.

So would you say it moves along at a pace similar to TDK after the stuff with Lau (which was fairly slow, imo).

No, but don't worry! Last night I made the mistake of clicking one-JUST ONE-spoiler tag elsewhere and my eyes, once they started, they wouldn't stop eating it up. :/

So would you say it is still a good threequel, then? I mean, its not Spider-Man 3 bore or X-Men 3 bad?

I read that Bane sort of adopted young Talia while they were in prison together. That sounds...

Wow. I was expecting the 3 month takeover of Gotham to be where we'd see Catwoman's turn. I guess that happens while Bruce is incarcerated?

You've seen it? How was Bane? Did Nolan treat him as more than the grunting pitbull we got in B&R?

My heart and prayers go out to the people whose loved ones were in the theater, as well as Nolan and everyone else involved in the movie's production. :(
