[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 5974172, member: 63"] I'm quite happy with the final scene being the new dark knight literally rising atop that platform. Smashcut to black. The Dark Knight Rises. I see what you did there, Nolan. James, I like some of your flavorful additions. Maybe they could have fit that in if they'd made the movie 2 hours and 50 minutes, instead of 2:44 (like we'd know the difference). The only thing that caught me by surprise was that Ra's al Ghul was [i]really[/i] dead. I figured he'd come back again. Yes, logically a bomb that will go off in exactly 5 months, to the point that you can have a countdown, all based on some sort of containment decay or something, doesn't make a whole lotta sense. Probably would've been better if they'd had the bomb not have a countdown normally, and Talia's device would just start a 15 minute countdown, long enough for them to get out of the city. I liked it. And hell, I liked the cheesy happy ending. Nolan directed The Prestige, and you can't make something disappear and end up with a happy audience unless you bring it back again. "You realize I have to kill you now? You're just going to have to [i]imagine[/i] the heat." Great lines from Bane. [/QUOTE]
