I choose to believe that Bruce is dead because that's the way it should rightfully end. Bruce does not get a second chance, he was doomed to die the night his parent were killed. I think Nolan used that autopilot as a fake out and Alfred is given to powerful hallucinations so he would imagine Bruce there. And honestly, that did not look like Anne at the end to me. Why would he go with her? There is no logical leap, one kiss does not a relationship make for me. He happily banged Miranda, went to great lengths to save her, so he was in no way interested in Selina that way. <br /><br />And yes, I am a hardcore cynic at times, so you're right, CA is definitely not my cup of tea. ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04443736284850057306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-46128814487497083782012-07-31T04:51:23.969+01:002012-07-31T04:51:23.969+01:00SPOILERS IN THIS COMMENT
I agree with everyone he...SPOILERS IN THIS COMMENT<br /><br />I agree with everyone here in agreeing with you on most everything you wrote - EXCEPT - the ending. I think Bruce is alive. Had they not specifically stopped over to have the autopilot confirmed - a scene that could easily have been jettisoned - then yes, the ending would have been every bit an engimatic indication of Alfred seeing what he wanted to see instead of reality. I also think had Mr. Nolan wanted to really make you think it could go either way - he would have shot that scene differently - with a Bruce-like figure and a Selina-like figure with their backs to camera, standing before being seated facing away from Alfred side by side. Then, after they sit, the Bruce looking figure starts to turn his head back towards Alfred, and just before you can see enough of his face to know for sure - there's the cut to black.<br /><br />"...the way the world works. People die, people get hurt and there is no hope to look to."<br /><br />I think I know now why Captain America is really NOT your cup of tea! ;)Craig Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06037542638067599437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-22249534411363726442012-07-29T18:54:03.342+01:002012-07-29T18:54:03.342+01:00@George I just read your review and loved it. We a...@George I just read your review and loved it. We agreed on many points, but disagreed on some as well. I loved this movie, but the Dark Knight is my favorite Batman movie. I really liked Batman Begins, but not nearly the way I loved the final two films of this trilogy. To me that film was more set up than anything like Fellowship of the Ring. <br /><br />I did not think this movie was too serious at all. I love dark, brooding films that have little or no light to them. To me that is more reflective of the way the world works. People die, people get hurt and there is no hope to look to. That idea is my favorite part of these last two films.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04443736284850057306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-34080253332260302462012-07-29T14:06:28.122+01:002012-07-29T14:06:28.122+01:00Wow, I thought your review was better than the mov...Wow, I thought your review was better than the movie itself. LOL. <br /><br />Don't get me wrong, I liked it a lot, but much like its predecessor, TDKR was a bit too serious and not enough comic book-ish for me. <br /><br />Batman Begins still remains my favorite Batman movie ever.<br /><br />I just posted my review of TDKR. It ain't as thoughtful and well-written as yours, but it's honest as usual. :)George Beremov [Nebular]https://www.blogger.com/profile/15136154142341512854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-90227395050685881622012-07-28T21:10:11.496+01:002012-07-28T21:10:11.496+01:00@Russell Thank you!

I think Nolan loves to keep us guessing so he deliberately shot the ending so as to be open for one's own personal take. <br /><br />Yes, Marion did a horrible death scene. It reminded me of one of those cheesy 80's slasher pic deaths. LOL<br /><br />I loved the part with JGL going into the Bat Cave, like he was the knew Gotham protector. Could there be a JGL hero flick? I hope so.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04443736284850057306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-76164503738134968532012-07-28T18:37:18.577+01:002012-07-28T18:37:18.577+01:00This comment contains SPOILERS.

I think I sat throughout the entire movie with my mouth open because I was just so damn impressed with that I was seeing. I thought it was a perfect way to end the trilogy.<br /><br />I thought that the setup with JGL was interesting and was surprised with the final shot of the film but thought it fit nicely.<br /><br />I like your interpretation of the ending, Mel but I don't agree with you. Perhaps I like the idea of the nice tidy ending that was shown, however if you are right and it ended like you said, then I would have preferred Nolan to have driven that point home.<br /><br />There is only one thing that I didn't like and it's a relatively small complaint. And that is the Talia Al-Ghul death scene, it was one of the worst death scenes I've ever seen. I expected more from Marion.<br /><br />I've seen it twice and that one scene is the only thing I didn't like about it, everything else was amazing!Russell_LDNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10095654337621571505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-32639484022669938132012-07-28T05:21:04.629+01:002012-07-28T05:21:04.629+01:00@Brent Thanks!

I don't know that the film sets up any evidence to make Alfred's sighting an illusion, but I can see why you'd read it that way. I'm ok with it either way. In any event, alive or dead, Bruce isn't Batman anymore, but one of the main themes of the series was the symbolism of the suit. As he tells Blake, "The Batman could be anyone." My read was that Blake was on his way to pick up the Bat mantle.INDBrenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11606473452389713844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3693339829397265611.post-81241678485207618162012-07-27T05:29:51.790+01:002012-07-27T05:29:51.790+01:00@Roland Thank you for the great comment!
