The whole point of the trilogy, was so he can get back to how he was when he was a child. The real Bruce Wayne. He leaves Gotham behind so he can leave his past and identity behind and start fresh. Selina does the same. That's the point. He cant do much anymore as Wayne anyway because his fortunes are limited at the end. He turns Wayne Manor into a school for orphans in the name of his parents. Changing his name and probably moving out to the countryside in some different continent, is probably what he's doing. No billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne, he's left that behind him. He's never had a normal life, so it's time to have one.Haven't seen the movie in a while but why did wayne have to be dead
I doubt that. Bruce would most likely go back yo just train Blake, so Gotham has it's new "Batman", and he would still be in contact with Alfred (who I doubt still lives in Gotham).He could have just left then. That's dumb so he's never going to check in on gotham again? Not to check in on Blake, Wayne Manor, Alfred, nothing.

Not that I agree with all those points but the list is hilarious.
I could listen to the "Batman theme" over and over. That is, the cue that appears in the credits of TDK and TDKR as well as on the track "Imagine the Fire" when Batman is being chased by the city's cops. It's bloody brilliant.
It starts roughly at 0:28 here. The part that gets me every time is right at 1:00.

From Imagine the Fire (this track seems like all the notes are lower):

And this one sped up by 5%.

This one is the only one I can find which is true to the original track...except the guy added in horribly synchronized chants. But at 1:30 is where the magic happens.

If Bruce fakes his death where will he get his money? If he works somewhere someone will recognise him.
I'm guessing that long before the events of TDKR Bruce secured funds in foreign accounts.

And... this is awesome:

does anyone have the links where bale and nolan confirmed bruce survived? ive been told they are out there but i cant find them.![]()
Re watched TDK recently and I was thinking. Will there ever be a CBM that will equal it? I know The Avengers has a similar User score on RT but on here TDK wins every time.

thx joker. ive seen that one already, and caine also said cobb wasnt in a dream too. so i think his cred is spotty at best. but a fellow member on here said that bale and nolan have said this and it would be really cool if anyone finds them to send a brother a pm. but again thx joker for that bro.Well here's one where Michael Caine confirmed it:
'The actor is also quick to dispel any ambiguity about the films ending. Asked about the scene in which Alfred spies Bruce Wayne and Anne Hathaways Selina Kyle sitting together at a neighboring table in that restaurant a shot that suggests that Alfreds wish for Bruce has come true, that his former charge has found a companion to bring him some measure of inner peace and happiness, enabling him to finally leave behind his self-appointed role as Gothams unofficial protector Caine is quite emphatic.
They were there, Caine said. They were real. There was no imagination. They were real and he was with Anne, the cat lady, and I was happy ever after for him as I told him during the picture.'
