Because he was the only Cop at the construction site who saw the explosives they were mixing up.
He didn't rescue him from the sewers. Gordon washed out from the sewers. Blake just found him. He didn't go in there and save him from Bane's clutches.
Wrong. Gordon sent him on the latter, and as for the former there was no risk to his life finding Gordon washed up outside a sewer.
He saved Gordon´s life. He found him. He followed his instincts. Nobody asked him to do it.
You can have all the will in the world to do something. It doesn't mean you can do it, or are the best person to do it.
Bruce didn't see anything from Blake that proved he was the right guy for the role. Not a thing.
Blake did diddly squat except play escort to some orphans to safety and even that he didn't get right.
And why are you so sure he couldn´t do it?
Bruce saw a great Cop who showed great detective instincts, courage and the determination to do it.
This was not about Bruce deciding he MUST find someone to substitute him. Bruce simply felt something in common with Blake and by seeing him trying to fight on his own, decided to give him orientation and something he could use to protect himself and others.
And Blake showed a hell of a right hand. Knocking out cold one of Bane´s "trained killers", that happened to be twice his size? That looked impressive to me and showed potential.
The rest of the story we don´t know. We only know Bruce trusted his secrets to Blake. We don´t know how Blake is going to use it. We don´t know if he is going to be Batman, Robin, Nightwing or any other thing. We don´t even know if he is going to fight crime in a physical way, like Batman. There are tons of things he can do with Batman´s resources without actually becoming Batman.
Plus, who are we to say he can´t be trained? He could even travel and go meet with Bruce to be trained by him. There are so many possibilities. We are talking about a CB movie, right? Then why so serious?
Guess what Ra's did? Same thing Batman did with Dent. He put him to a TEST first to see if he was worthy. What did Bruce get Blake to do to prove his worth as inheritor of the Batman stuff? Sweet nothing.
Guess what? Ras was wrong and Batman was wrong. Bruce turned his back on Ras and Dent became a criminal. It seems tests "prove" nothing either.
Bruce simply decided to leave his old life behind him. That´s why he gave away everything he had. Blake inherited Batman´s resources because he already knew about everything in the first place and was the only person around Bruce who actually showed the will to take that path.
No, I meant if it's new gadgets he gives him instructions, or if it's a new vehicle they go and drive it together.
You see Lucius explain to Bruce how this stuff works, or in the case of the Tumbler they go driving around in it. Ergo you can put two and two together on how Bruce learns this stuff.
Oh, a test drive and Bruce becomes a stunt man. Nice! I mean, where does he find the time to learn how to PERFECTLY operate all those vehicles? And where does he train? How can Bruce be a master at driving everything? Wouldn´t something like that take many years, even for a very talented person? He does some crazy stunts in the movie.
And how credible is the idea that a person could become amazing at everything? I mean, the dude can do anything. He is very strong, but at the same time very agile and very fast. He uses all his gadgets like if he had over a decade of practice. He is often at the right place, at the right time. To you that´s credible, but the Blake arc is just outrageous.
Yeah somewhere on his costume. Web cartridges remember? The light flashed red when it was running low.
Are you making that up? I don´t think he could store tons and tons of that stuff anywhere in his suit. Have you paid attention to the amount of web he shoots in the film? Basically we´re supposed to believe that he has a small device that does miracles.
EDIT: I see Kato got banned. Why is it that the argumentative newbies always turn out to be trouble?
What trouble, dude? Aren´t you argumentative? I don´t see any difference between what you´re doing and what i´m doing. The only difference is, pheraps, that you have spent WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more time than me repeating yourself over and over and over and over and over again. You gotta be the most vocal guy about this subject in this forum. I think everybody in this forum already knows what you think about the movie, but somehow you feel the need to repeat yourself more than any other person.
I´m gonna tell you something: I´ve received a PM from a user of this forum telling me to not waste my time with you, because very often, discussions with you end up with someone being banned, and it´s never you. I don´t know if this is true, but there´s definitely something fishy about your presence in this forum.
I saw your profile and noticed you´re good friends with some of the mods, wich might help to explain why i get banned by discussing this subject with you, without even being offensive. You beat people over the head with your tired ideas. Yet, you´re a welcomed guest. But i´m "trouble" for being as argumentative with you as you are with other people.
