[i]Originally posted by ares834 [/iHe has a flying vehicle. The last time we see it prior to Batman getting captured is when he flies it into the Batcave. And Wayne Manor is certainly not on Gotham Island
This one is admittedly a plot hole. However, he was hopping planes and trains in Begins so he presumably would have the necessary skills to do it again. [/B]
Yes, he has The Bat. But after landing it in the cave, he later uses it to rescue Catwoman & lands it on top of the building in Gotham. That's where it stays. Later Fox asks him if he remembers "where he left it?" to which we see Bruce taking the canvas tarpulin off The Bat...on top of the building.
So no, this still DOESN'T explain how Bruce Wayne (not disguised as Batman) gets back into Gotham.
The Bat was left in Gotham city & not in the cave.
And yes, a young Bruce Wayne (with access to his inheritance) is seen travelling in Begins. Having money isn't a skill.
In TDKR, Bruce Wayne is broken, poor & penniless.His reputation is ruined....there's no logical explanation of how he travelled back to Gotham & for that matter, how seemingly quick it took him to get back. Remember the time of the bomb was 52 hours & counting down for the moment Bruce gets his dislocated vertebrae "fixed" in the pit.
