The Dark Knight Rises The TDKR General Discussion & Speculation Thread - Part 18

[the Wankstar]

The chanting is actually me.

Me and Hans got together one night and split a sixer of Mike's Hard Lemonade. Needless to say, I don't remember much of that night...

Going by what he told me the next day, apparently he thought it'd be funny to record me shouting incoherent nonsense during my black-out state. When he told me he had incorporated it into the score, I took a swing out him, missed, and stormed out of his house in a rage. I have cut all ties with him since then. It's so embarrassing.

**** Hans Zimmer .

Well, if he split a 6-pack, and is a bit hazzy about the night, I think a jump to a mans drink is a bit too much. He needs to stick to the girly drinks for now.

No that would ruin it. At least during the first watch. I want to watch it sober so I can fully appreciate it. Nothing wrong with watching it high when you watch it a second time I guess, but i'd never watch it high or drunk during my first viewing. That would just kill it.

Made a mash up of Arkham City and Kiss From A Rose by Seal. Inspired by the "brilliance" of Batman Forever.

I plan to get high before the premiere...
Why not? I'll still be able to follow the plot perfectly well, it'll just make it THAT much more enjoyable to me.
And the first time seeing a Nolan Batman film in the theaters is always an unforgettable experience.

Hahaha that poster. Sad part is if a lot of people here had their way that's exactly the movie we would see.

On to speculation:

Is it possible that Bane comes to Gotham to take Ra's al Ghul's body back to the Lazarus Pit? Meaning in the duration of TDK, Bane and/or The League of Shadows has come to Gotham and returned to... Morocco, I guess, with the body. As the Joker rises and falls, the League watches and waits, and when Batman "wins," they again move to take action.

Could this be the rising of Ra's from the Pit? While he heals, he instructs Bane to prepare Gotham's destruction before his return in the end.

Is this anything remotely new, or am I the beater of a long dead horse?

Allow me to be the first to take your post seriously, since this is a TDKR speculation and discussion thread;

I personally do not see Ra's as that important a character, meaning, there isn't any specific reason for him to live, or be bought back to life. There is nothing that Talia/Bane cannot do to perpetuate the LOS in terms of story. Also, there really is story left for Ra's, regarding the present or future. He was done in BB, so any story regarding him will most likely be in the past tense. This is merely opinion but I think it makes more sense. He wasn't a particularly memorable character in BB, and therefore he's pretty much redundant.

As for the Lazarus pit, i'm not sure that early photo of the greenscreen 'pit' we saw months ago is definite evidence of this concept's inclusion. It seem like something Nolan would be against, but who can really say. If a fear-inducing toxin and Bane's stamina expanding breathing apparatus are in, then perhaps it's not so extraordinary that we will see some sort of healing 'substance'. It just will not be as extreme as the comic interpretation.

Michael Scott: "What you can do, is spread false gossip... so people think that everything that's been said is untrue. Include that Stanley is having an affair. It's like the end of Spartacus. I have seen that movie half a dozen times and I still don't know who the real Spartacus is. And that is what makes that movie a classic whodunnit."
