that it wasn't the ninja break out that was going around at the time.

 

[The_Raganork]

If that rumor is true, that would make his costume even more useless now. Worse than having him walk around in daylight.

The retort will be:

#1 its for protection, like armor

#2 its symbolic.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the idea of Batman's identity being revealed? I might be able to stomach it a bit if it's at the end but if it's at the beginning or middle...

I'd despise it if it happened anywhere in the film.

if he gives that up he's going to prison

then if they aide Batman after that, Gotham is still engaging in some sort of corruption

 

[rashad]

There's no real evidence to support it.

Wait it was useless before? haha

No, it signals the transition. Bruce intended the Batman to be a symbol of hope for the good, and a symbol of fear for the evil. After TDK, it's a symbol of fear for both.

He has removed the shackles of the monster he created by the Batman being outted as Bruce Wayne.

And in return the suit is now an actual SYMBOL OF HOPE.

Thus, The Dark Knight RISES ... he ELEVATES the hopes and beliefs of Gotham.

Which is what he set out to do originally in BEGINS. To become an inspiring symbol to Gotham, to shake them out of apathy, and take back their city.

 

[Goku Goes Crazy]

I wish we were getting trailer descriptions as early as we are about to get prologue descriptions.

Thursday! Can't wait though, thanks Chris.

 

[SmellTheWeird]

That's just telling us what it isn't ... that isn't any actual news.

#2 its symbolic.

#3 It's has needed equipment and tech.

I'm not a huge fan of the idea, however if it is true than I really hope it works withing the context of the film otherwise bleh.

people knowing who Batman is is more of a problem than a solution. he took on a identity to protect those he cared about.

Which is why I didn't say anything because no matter what someone is unsatisfied with information

 

[Tacit Ronin]

Like him or not though, Jett has been quite a factor in helping get Batman back onto the big screen after the devastation of his last big screen outing back in 97.

Oh Van. You should do stand up.

Oh awesome. Sounds like Bruce Wayne should've just signed up to be a part of the GCPD, then.

Nothing is better than having a masked vigilante's identity be known to the public.

 

[SmellTheWeird]

people knowing who Batman is is more of a problem than a solution. he took on a identity to protect those he cared about.

But this is the end of him. We KNOW this ... those people no longer need be protected if he's outted as Batman. And we have the situation with Lucious Fox, Gordon, etc. So those he cares about are already feeling the effects.

 

[Joker594]

I think the only I'd be okay with Batman's identity being revealed is if he dies. . .

Kinda one of the only ways that could work IMO. . .

 

[Troy_Parker]

Well, his costume is protection.

Although I know I'm probably in the minority when I say this, if Bruce's identity is known... it'd be cool to see him take his cowl off or something before fighting Bane... or having it ripped off. At least once.

I want to see a battle ravaged Batsuit, we haven't seen one so far, iirc. D:

 

[Nevincer]

people knowing who Batman is is more of a problem than a solution. he took on a identity to protect those he cared about.

And he still lost everyone he cared about, aside from Alfred.

 

[The_Raganork]

But this is the end of him. We KNOW this ...

Again you have the idea that this being the conclusive chapter of the series means that this is the end for Batman. That doesn't have to be.

Batman can go out and fight Riddler, Penguin and killer croc after TDKR and it still be the last chapter.

these stories are about Bruce Wayne and if he figures something out in TDKR that solidifies him in one place or another than it's over. There's nothing else to learn.

Its not about him Fighting crime, it's about him growing and learning from the situations. If he becomes a master in Bruce Wayne/Batman, he can fight til the day he dies after TDKR and TDKR would still be a conclusive end.

those people no longer need be protected if he's outted as Batman. And we have the situation with Lucious Fox, Gordon, etc. So those he cares about are already feeling the effects.

Of course they need to be protected, criminality is not coming to an end at the end of this film. Batman is not going to create a utopia. Even if he did the law is obligated to go after anyone who knew Batman was Bruce Wayne. The Government would have to come in take over GCPD and capture Batman. He is a fugitive and even cross international waters and kidnapped a Chinese official...

His identity needs to stay secret for anyone he's ever met.

 

[The_Raganork]

And he still lost everyone he cared about, aside from Alfred.

true but add Selina now to this and the fact that Gordon is in a position where he would need to do something, Lucius couldn't get off pretending he didn't know.

Reese would be found and investigated,

W.E. would be seized the wayne legacy would be destroyed.

Like every Marvel film.

 

[MagnarTheGreat]

I think (or rather hope) Selina and Wayne know of each other's alter-egos. It's too darn silly for them not to given what I've seen of their behavior while interacting with each other and Selina's lack of hiding her own identity...unless Superman/Clark Kent logic really has taken hold in the film.

 

[Nevincer]

I disagree with this. I think Gotham would be proud finding out a Wayne of all people was the vigilante who alone stood up for the city and almost cleared the streets for 10-ish years, even if it was outside the law. I'm not saying he wouldn't be a wanted man, but everyone outside of that would be able to understand why he worked outside the law due to the corruption issue in Gotham... the law was compromised.

 

[The_Raganork]

lol...yeah that 'disguise' isn't much of one

Sure Gotham would understand but I meant literally W.E. would go under. The law would have to seize control of it, everything would have to be investigated and eventually found out and then W.E. would be no more.

I don't think that's going to happen

 

[Nevincer]

But isn't Gotham essentially No Man's Land by the end of the movie? At least that's what we have been hearing. If the city is in complete shambles Wayne Enterprises going under is the last thing to worry about...
