Wow, yeah, I just thought of them possibly flashing back to Bruce and his training in Asia again. That would be fantastic. I'd love to see more of that.

 

[Micah12345]

I think I'd rather see him return to asia for additional training than see flashbacks.

Are we sure that the locations in India are "on location"? I mean, couldn't the bad bits of Delhi stand in for the bad bits of Gotham?

The bad bits of Gotham are the Narrows, and there are already soundstages for that.

Plus, the Narrows "is lost." Meaning it's basically just an extension of Arkham, if the Gotham Knights DVD is to be believed.

Not really apart of the city anymore.

 

[Boom]

Yeah, I wouldn't go by what Gotham Knights says.

We haven't seen all of Gotham City. Not even close. So who's to say that Narrows Island is the only shady area in Gotham?

I live in Cincinnati, OH, and I can name three horrible areas off the top of my head.

 

[TheBatman072]

A bad part of Gotham full of Indian people?

Alright.

 

[Boom]

He could be visiting India purely for design inspiration. Like how Kowloon served as the visual inspiration for The Narrows.

Just throwing theories out.

 

[TheBatman072]

That makes sense. Downtown Gotham is a pretty big place.

Even though the Narrows is a very small portion of Gotham. Right between Midtown and Downtown.

Alright.

As I remember from trying to get around ****ing Oxford when The Golden Compass was being filmed, movie productions tend to keep the inconvenient natives well away from their lenses.

I don't like to think Nolan operates like that.

 

[The Demon's Head]

What if Bruce is visting Leslie Thompkins?

 

[TheBatman072]

What if Bruce is visting Leslie Thompkins?

I'd agree, but it's much too late to introduce her now.

 

[The Demon's Head]

I disagree. I think that after TDK, Bruce really needs Leslie. They could say she's been away from Gotham from the past couple of years, and Bruce seeks her out because he's lost faith after the events of TDK, and he needs to find his purpose again.

Someone so important to him that we haven't met yet?

Really?

Sorry. If she was going to be in this franchise, she would have been introduced in Begins.

Hmm....after reviewing the "map of Gotham", there would be plenty of room for a stealth style Bat boat in the next film...without a doubt.
