Don't believe the hype unless you are a crazy Batman fan like the kind who worships "the Dark Knight"
Best thing was Michael Caine's serious acting bits and a certain amazing cameo from the first film.

Yeah I felt Bane was amazing and then y'know...anticlimatic finish to him.
Though I'm pretty sure you can't just punch a vertebrae back in and leave him a couple months and it'll fix itself. Didn't the original comic sequence retire that batman after the break the bat deal?

Did you know I'm a Batman expert?
What actually happened is that Batman and Robin had been trying to rehabilitate this Assassin to not be a threat, (Azreal)
Batman has his back broken by Bane, and Azreal decides to become the new Batman.
I don't want to spoil it, look up Knightfall

Yeah that's what I thought having seen Knightfall in like every forbidden planet shop the last couple months in the build up to this film. Didn't think it's something you can just come back from like he does in the film.

From miraculously flying from around the world back to Gotham in a few cuts, to surviving a 6 mile radius explosion. He's fucking Batman!
Also, didn't the timer on the bomb have like a few minutes left on the clock? How the hell did he clear 6 miles from Gotham in the time-span of 1-3 minutes? He's Batman I guess.
WHERE'S THE TRIGGERMAN?!
WHERE'S BANE?!
WHERE'S THE JOKER?!
WHERE'S HARVEY DENT?!

After watching the Collegehumour Batman videos I just couldn't take Batman seriously, his face just looks so derpy when in costume and it doesn't help when he goes "Ugggrrrhhhhhhh!" while fighting Bane like a caveman.
Though my pal made a good guess at how he survived the explosion though it makes him seem rather trolly for doing so. Also Battech is fast when at full speed I reckon he coulda made that. What I'm wondering about is why there is no nuclear fallout and devestating radiation frmo the blast.

The auto-pilot on the Batwing sure, but it just doesn't seem like it was going fast enough to reach 6 miles

If it was the auto-pilot Batman is a massive dick for letting Gordon and co think he was dead, especially poor Alfred.

Well he let everyone close to him know that he was still alive. Newly installed Bat-signal and Alfred even nodded to him. All is well I suppose.

Sure eventually, though I'm still debating whether or not that was a hallucination at the end. Though yes I suppose they found out eventually ignoring the potential for Alfred's suicide.
Another issue I had with the film is Catwoman but that's personal preference, just don't like her character.

And of course Batman wasn;t in the explosion; he's Batman, even when he has no backup plan, he has a backup plan.
Something I take issue with is people saying Batman was hardly in the film. He was, they just called him "John Blake" (though they should have named him after one of the actual Robins, rather than just having that be his first name.)
And I understood Bane's voice perfectly fine, but completely ruining his motivation at the last moment was cheap.

I thought John Blake was a stupid decision. If they named him after one of the Robins everyone would have been like "OOh shit! Robin's in the movie!"
Bane's demotion to henchman at the end was dumb too.

The Original Adam West Batman movie.
Here's what I'm wondering, Ra's Al Ghul has access to the lazarus pits...which ensure he is reborn or something. I'm wondering if the modern batman trilogy is really tapping into the mythology here and letting him come back to life or whether it was all a hallucination of Wayne's. Personally I'm hoping they'd embrace a bit of the weirdness and let him be immortal, cause he's Liam Neeson.

Regarding the Bat, and the old Adam West Batman, that ending screamed of "Some days, you just can't get rid of a bomb!"

I wish they had referenced The Dark Knight as much as they had Batman Begins. So sad what happened to Heath Ledger otherwise he could have had his own awesome cameo. :(

Yeah I imagine he would've had one otherwise.
Still what do you think will be done with Robin in future, my mate prays it won't be Robin but rather Nightwing who returns but could he carry a movie alone?

So, wonder what the reboot will be like, think it'll live up to Nolan's films or not?

Well I in my colourfully childish mind already prefer a number of the Burton-era films to Nolan's dark trilogy so eh.
The new Bat sign would certainly indicate a follow up would involve BATMAN as opposed to any variant on Robin but I dunno they could always bring Nolan back and do the whole Batman AND Robin thing.
Though seriously...."I can tell you're Batman because your face looks as angry and hurt as my own" as Robin's reasoning in that film....ugh...

Yeah but then we get this situation where EVERYONE knows he's Batman and they are all snickering to themselves whenever a police officer goes "Yo Bruce" and he's all "I'm Batman" and they are like "Pfft...snk....sssnnnnk......suure....ok...BATMAN....my mistake"

Yes, Nightwing would be a much better idea than Batman. I mean for one, his actual name is Robin so it probably wouldn't be a very good superhero identity...

You say that but then again everyone in DK RISES must've known who Batman was given time of disappearence and Wayne's coincidental disappearence.
Plus apparently anyone who has lost their parents and is angry at the world can look at Bruce and go "Yeah that's the Bat"

True. At least he didn't call himself "The Bruceman" though. That would have only made it more obvious...
