Greattt synopsis

derp

 

[Sith Scotti]

So everyone who dates Batman is going to die ? Eh I call bs on this.

 

[The Joker]

I would expect more character development for Selina though.

Well lets face it, it cannot possibly get any smaller than the 3.5 minutes of screen time Eddie Brock had.

[craigdbfan]

That plot summary made me

 

[Van Petrol]

may as well change the title to The League of Shadows Rises: The return of The sensei and teh talia. Also starring batman.

Didn't you get the memo? Talia isn't in it.


Btw, that sounds like a terrible way for Nolan to bow out of the Bat-franchise. I'm calling BS.

 

[Sith Scotti]

So what we know is Batman and Catwoman both die in this film . Maybe it has a Romeo and Juliet ending t:

 

[HighFivingMF]

Poison Bat-Bombs, baby!

 

[Mako]

I think the synopsis forgot about Bane destroying Gotham with Ice bombs.

 

[RKO]

Spoiler

Dorrance.

 

[Steyin]

I wouldn't put it past Nolan to pull something like this, but lets face it; if he did, hordes of pissed Bat fans would strangle him with a bunch of vests.

[TheFantasticJoe]

Bane suffers from Hereditary Sensory Autonomic Neuropathy. Which basically explains his resistence to pain. Again Nolan is using his 'Im so intelligent' shtick.

It's obvious the person who wrote this made it up as a personal dig on Nolan.
