The scene on the rooftop where Catwoman gets cornered by Bane's henchmen & Bats comes to her rescue. They fight briefly & then Bats jumps into The Bat, followed by Catwoman.

Then Batman decides to fly away.
I mean why didn't he stay & fight? He's in a bullet-proof vehicle equipped with heavy artillery clearly having the advantage over Bane & his henchmen....& yet he flies away.

Later we see Bruce sucking up to Selina asking her to lead Batman to Bane's lair.

So Batman had the advantage but didn't use only to have to track Bane later into unfamiliar territory...losing his edge & the battle.

facepalm smdh.. perhaps you shouldvread the script, i can give a site where you actually can read them.. when you actually use your brain you will realize Batman's objective was to help Selina and keep her safe.. again doesn't take a genius to figure things out, even two year olds can...

second Batman had to gain her trust which he still didn't have.. can 't you think?????? you do realize it is not the director's(whether it is Nolan, Lucas, Spielberg, Tarantino, etc...)responsibility to spell things out for people...

Oh ok gaining Selina's trust & her ensuing safety IS OF GREATER IMPORTANCE THAN protecting Gotham City & it's population from the terrorist Bane.

I mean Batman in The Bat clearly had the advantage over Bane on the rooftop....but he didn't attack becos he didn't have Selina's trust at that stage?

Riiiight.

So by your reasoning, it's actually Selina's fault that 2 grid iron teams (minus one) were killed & 3000 police officers became trapped underground....becos Bats was having trouble gaining her trust.

Never saw Batman rises, and don't need to. What a big mess this movie was. Not even just the plot holes ..the actors couldnt even save this script

Well, here is a list I copied and pasted that list many legit plotholes from TDKR:

I'd like to nominate the movie "Lockout" for plothole ridden film of 2012.

Personally I feel like the main problem with the TDKR is that Nolan was planning on telling a different story but when Heath died and he decided to drop all the Joker aspects from the story it took a good chunk out of his original story and he had to hurry with the rest. Also Bale wanted to make the movie more Batman central since the Joker stole the show last time so they wanted to make the villains less interesting and spotlight stealing this time around.

Some of the stuff doesn't bother me like Bruce getting back into the city. There is a difference between not showing something and something being a plothole to me.

See now, that would make sense. If not for the fact that the island is surrounded by a literal curtain of Category 5 hurricane winds, air funnels, and constant lightning storms. And it's 100 miles away from the closest island, and the little animals get big, while the big animals get small. So there were like giant bees and dog sized elephants.

The original story probably made sense, but the one with Brendan Frasier and the remix didn't. They were fun, but plotholes abound.

There was no animals migrating to an island in the original movie and orange goo at all.

'Journey to the centre of the earth' which that Fraser movie was loosely based on

I was talking about Mysterious Island. And it's unofficial sequel Food of the Gods.

dude I don't time to babysit a grown man and explain things to him.. use your brain and think, once again it is not the director's job to spell things out for people.. only haters will think it is while millions of people around the world aren't really bothered about plotholes..

right on

TDKR.

Bruce Wayne has no cartilage in his knee and can barely walk when the film begins. He needs a robo-brace to be able to go out as Batman. Bane dislocates his vertebrae and dumps him in a third world prison. Knee injury miraculously healed. Come on.

Also being suspended by a rope healed his spinal cord injuries, just like in the real world! Derp. dur

Once again, I've asked you a reasonable & logical question & you've gone off on a tangent evading answering the question.

I asked you, Why did Batman, in The Bat fly away from Bane instead of attacking him, when Bats clearly had the advantage?

Your answer, "He needed to gain Selina's trust first."

I have used my brain to think & I've finally come to the conclusion that you've somehow mistaken Twilight for TDKR.

you make me laugh.. use your mind, your brain to figure it out... its not hard... a 2 year old can figure it out..

next up do you know anything, I mean anything at all regarding Batman?? next up, do you think the film which was 2 hours and 45 minutes long that the film would end one hour into it??

Hmmm...do I want to see my favourite character hide inside an armoured, heavily weaponised flying vehicle & FLY AWAY from his protagonist....

OR
JUST
MAYBE....

A nod to one of Miller's classic scenes....

Can you imagine The Bat hovering just inches away from Bane's face?
-Bullets ricocheting off the cockpit-

Can you picture Bane taunting Bats to pull the trigger...Batman's finger on the button, staring back at Bane.

Can you hear the inner turmoil of Alfred telling Bruce that he's too old, too broken, that he's got nothing to prove by taking Bane on...?

Can you see the camera close-up on Batman's face as he ponders whether to pull the trigger, whether to land The Bat & take Bane on, whether he still has it in him....?

Then maybe that's when Selina sees the suicide option that Batman's about to take & grabs the throttle forcing The Bat to fly off....

Yeah I think that would've been a better scene then you're Twilight explanation of Batman impotent with trust issues.

don;t have too.. keep making me laugh as laughter makes things much better.. I've read the script for the film.. I also know everything their is to know where Batman is concerned.. the film was 2 hours and 45 minutes long, NOT 1 HOUR where you think Batman will do something TOTALLY NOT LIKE HIS CHARACTER so obviously you know nothing of the character..

But seriously...I made all those points months ago. And people still say it's OK.

Probably the most half-assed screenplay written in years.

As Krusty the Clown once said...("They drove a truckload full of money up to my house, I'm not made of stone."😉

Sums up Dark Knight perfectly.

Also I'm not sure but I don't think Batman even saw Bane in the fight you're mentioning.

Nolan is ahit and miss director for me personally. I came out TDKR feeling somewhat cheated. I was actually never that excited for it whereas i was practically jizzing my pants every time i saw that epic TDK trailer with the joker facing off against the bat pod "HIT ME".

Inception was just an utter disappointment. You have the template of peoples dreams to base a movie off of and it amounts to nothing but psychobabble and slow motion. The only redeeming aspect of that story was the sub plot of him and his wife in limbo, which was destroyed at the end of the movie IMO. The totem bullshit. Also Juno his a horrible actress.

Whereas Nolan Utterly blew my mind with The Prestige. One of my favorite period pieces(if not THE favorite).

IMO Inception was more of him taking a chance as a director which i dont mind at all, but it seems like there are some people who think Nolan's shit sparkles. I give props where props are due, but i also found it a bit insulting that whenever i tell people i didnt like inception or TDKR its about the same reaction as when i tell the i didnt like Avatar. A mixure of confusion and a bit like ive insulted them in some way. I never said they were retarded for likeing it. Just that it wasnt as great as its made out to be.

TDKR was by no stretch a shitty movie, but it had major plotholes. If not story wise then character wise. And the final nail in the coffin for me was how bane ultimately was killed. Anti climactic as ****.
