You weren't just sitting through the two face scene you had the privelage of watching his tale come to an end unless you are a complete dolt. And besides it had to end on two face because that's when Nolan hits us with the hook that Batman's taking the blame for harvey's death because thats what gotham needs of him, and it's best to end on a hook. It's not like we still didn't get to melt in the awesomeness of the joker's capture.

EDIT: Im still uneasy about Nolan using such an unrealistic villain in a much more realistic themed universe. Sure everyone says Nolan is great especially after TDK and Tom Hardy is a great actor but none of that will make bane who he is in the movie and still passable as bane......also i just got word that bane is British in the movie. Im not complaining im just concerned nolan has bit off a bit more then he can chew with his choice in villain(according to the nolan verse that is)


That's what Nolan doe's though by pitting those contrasts against each other, he prefers a challenge to what is expected. I think it is very interesting to turn this awesome villian into something realistic. Batman himself isn't very realistic but Nolan made him plausable.

Bruce Wayne: Which is?
Ducard: A legend, Mr. Wayne.

Edit: Here is the article.

I could definately see Batman dieing, Nolan likes to shock and blow minds in every film he has to created from his first three minute short. And i think Batman's death isn't even faintly considered among most fans or audience, so that could very well be what he doe's.

You were clearly polite enough to post an unrequited apology, but as soon as I say that apology was neccesary you retract it.

Previous experience of divs moaning about images being too big because scrolling along wastes vital energy they need for fapping ferociously to animal based cartoon pornography.

Is Bruce really a tight-ass that he dug up his mom's grave to give that to Selina?

The plot thickens.


I assumed she stole it since she is a thief. Plus she talks about Bruce keeping everything for himself, so it seemed implied that people were going to take stuff from him.

Come to think of it, wasn't the necklace broken? So maybe this was just a replica to stir up Bruce's emotions.

It was just a funny observation somebody made regarding the necklace.

I doubt it's that important to the storyline, maybe just an in-joke Nolan added for the geek fanatics.

What's that saying about "opinions & a$$holes...".

Seriously the "awesomeness of the Joker's capture"?
Christ it was a blatant rip-off of the Joker's demise from Burton's 1st Batman.

So yeah, it was the anti anti-climax to Two Face's anti-climatic end.

I wouldn't say it was a rip off if anything it was a tribute to the original and Noland didn't have the joker killed either.

What would you of preferred? It was either death or capture, and i believe batman doe's his best capturing when his advesary's are suspended in the air hanging from their ankles.

Maybe an insane cat & mouse chase sequence?

Every time Bats gets too close, the Joker attacks him with razor blades or throws acid. The Joker taunts Batman with weapons that aren't really meant to kill outright but to cause pain & alot of bleeding.
Both use all their gadgets & gimmicks until they're both battered & beyond reasoning.

In the end when Batman finally catches the Joker, he is so enraged that he beats him to a bloody pulp...leaving the viewer to guess whether The Joker is dead or not, whether Batman can openly kill with his bare hands?

We must remember that Nolan's Batman has solemnly sworn never to kill, and obviously the Joker made him want to forget that self-vow, which is WHY the scene is climactic - we finally learn what Joker's goal has been all along - to be killed by Batman. The rest was just kicks and giggles for him. And having the audience finally know this, and seeing how Batman has to overcome his anger and temptation... because the two of them have been playing "Chicken" throughout the movie, and now it's finally face to face.

It wasn't a bit anticlimactic to me... neither the Joker's capture nor Two-Face's death. What he had done since he was seduced by the Joker's idea of Chaos made it impossible to let him survive past the movie.
