    As corny as this will sound, I remember before this movie came out I was in a major depression. I lost my job, a girl I loved, I cut off contact with nearly everyone. My back started giving me problems from lack of exercise & lying all day and I had to use a cane. And off course I had a beard. Then TDKR came out and I decided to leave my house after 5 months alone and see it. I have to say is those early scenes of Bruce hit me real deep. And this moment well up to this day it brings me to tears.

      Hey Poontang. It says you posted this comment 7 years ago, if you're still active on this account I'm curious to know where you are today and how you are now 7 years later?
      I hope you're okay and in a better place now than when you wrote this comment several years ago.
      Edit, 4 months after original comment: we need to find Poontang and make sure he's okay. I check back in on this comment from time to time to see if he replied. He hasn't so far. He may not reply at all, but wherever he is and whatever he's doing I hope he's okay and doing better.

      To be fair, all of the Batman films, good and bad, take liberties with the characters. In Batman (1989), Alfred lets Vicky Vale into the Batcave. That's something Alfred would never do in the comics, and Burton was rightfully criticized for that decision. I don't think there is a single superhero movie out there that hasn't taken liberties with at least one major character. Out of all the live action Batman films, The Dark Knight definitely comes the closest to staying faithful to the source material.

      Actually Christian bale was auditioning in competition with other actors for the role and his voice was exactly the reason he nailed the part, the other actors used their regular voice, but bale used his voice immediately, and Nolan was surprised and had to go with bale,

    These films are so incredibly deep. You're looking at a man who has been fighting crime for years, sacrificed his entire personal life for the greater good and just when there's a glimpse of a life beyond that awful cave he is forced to put on his cape and do it all over again.
    I really miss these superhero films with great character development and a creative story. Christian Bale's Batman & Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man are perfect examples of this. No big CGI fights, silly jokes or the need to set up a universe full of heroes.

    This is such a beautifully tragic scene.
    You can see Bruce’s despair. You can sense his continued sadness for losing Rachel, but also the sadness in knowing Alfred is right. He knows Alfred is right, that he never moved on, and that by coming back to Gotham when he did, he entered that world of pain again.
    The fatherly desperation in Alfred to get Bruce to leave the past is immense and beautiful. You can see him in pain, watching Bruce slowly lose himself to sadness and despair. He expresses that in such a great fatherly way.
    Perhaps my favorite part is when he tells Bruce that he never wanted him to come back, because of how much pain is linked to Gotham for him. It’s a dead end for Bruce, a point in his life that was defined by tragedy. He always wanted more for him, for both his parents sake and his own. They have a father son relationship by circumstance, and watching him come back to that of course hurt him immensely.
    I love this scene also for my personal relation to it. Not gonna go too much into it, but I have a similar experience with my home. I’ve had my dad say the same thing to me, and man it carries the same weight that it does here. It hurts to hear, but it’s the truth.
    Overall, beautiful scene.

He's there for Bruce during his darkest hours, and he stands by Bruce through his most insane plans. He supports Bruce in his operations but also supports him emotionally and more than anything, he wants Bruce to be happy. To help him move past the pain of his loss. Goddamn it, you really have to love Alfred and his wisdom.

    Batman is the symbol of endurance and hope. The man behind the mask is more then just a mask that we all strive to be like him.He is a man who has lost so much, his parents, his love of his life ,his heart broken and literally his body broken in half. His own city that he loves turns against him. And through all this tribulation he finds it in himself to persevere over the darkness and escape it.And literally escape it.
    The Dark Knight is one of my second favorite of the three. In this scene we see him still closed off from the outside world because his spirit has been broken and is in depression,but slowly starts to come out of it when Alfred informs him on the events.And like his father’s quote “why do we fall ?” “So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.”” Gets back up from despair and fight and fight which is life itself in the real world that we live in. I only wish I had someone like Alfed to be there for me. True lone wolfs out there who have absolute no companionship stay strong and continue to endure.✌️

That's amazing detective work!

    • @brucesnow7125
      @brucesnow7125 6 років тому +29

      Dhan next time someone says that, just copy and paste this comment mate:
      Batman Begins:
      - Tricks Ra's Al Ghul during the training making him think that he exposed himself because of his wound while he actually uses his wound to trick him, fast thinking.
      - Gathers evidence about most of the corrupt officials in a matter of short time, they were committing crime for years without getting caught I tell ya.
      - Look at how he fights in the docks when he's taking down Falcone and his thugs, he uses scare tactics to get rid of gunmen first, then proceeds to fight like 10-15 guys just to make them live to tell the tale.
      - Same with taking down Crane
      - After taking down Crane quickly proceeds to Fox, so that he can make some cure against his toxin after finding out that special technology for dissolving water supplies is taken and that all the water supplies were poisoned.
      - Which leads him to figure out that Ra's Al Ghul needs train to take the machine to Wayne Enterprise to spread toxin, good old deducting
      - Turns himself into distraction making Ra's think that he is trying to stop the train, while Bruce's whole plan was to keep Ra's busy while Gordon is destroying the bridge, so Bruce tricks him again, quick thinking once again.
      - Throughout the movie creates the symbol, a myth, because as a man with flesh and blood he is vulnerable, but as a symbol...well you get the idea. What I'm saying is, he doesn't just go fighting crime, he prepares everything, builds his base of operation, gathers evidence about his enemies and friends, gathers equipment for his battle, chooses specific symbol for the battle and then proceeds to kick some ass. It's not like CW Arrow where he just finds a factory and starts just writing off people from his list, Batman didn't have any list.
      The Dark Knight:
      - After a couple of years or so, all of the criminals are so scared that they operate only on the daylight, how about that? Night belongs to Batman
      - Suspecting that mobs work with Lau, invites him to his company so he can look at his accounts and confirm his suspicions. Knowing exactly that Lau took all their money, develops an ingenious plan to take him down in the China
      - So, at first he gathers equipment for his mission with his goal being faster and get into the plane without landing. Then creates alibi for Bruce Wayne's dissappearance that he took all the Russian ballet dancers with him on the boat trip, then goes to China discretely. Sets the timer on each of the sticky bombs at specific time, takes down all Lau's men, and bomb explodes and plane flies through exactly when police arrive and exactly when Bruce finished got Lau where he wanted. How can someone call him dumb after that? Are people high?
      - Uses government resources to change Fox's sonar device and infects every phone in the city in the way that he would be able to see everything. He does that at the middle of movie just in case as plan B without telling anyone, he knew that Joker would do something as huge as that so that he can use it
      - In the end device is useful, but as he knows exactly how Fox would react specifically builds up self destruction option for Fox.
      - The entire final battle is him strategically taking down everyone without killing them, my favorite moment is when he ties all cops, makes them think that he lost, but then pushes one and all fall with him, ingenious.
      The Dark Knight Rises, now to put in a context, Bruce is rusty here, he isn't thinking straight, he is psychologically destroyed, so his mistakes are justified, yet still:
      - Easily figures out that Selina is there to steal his fingerprints just by looking at the safe and what she took, he psychologically evaluates that she took necklace only because she liked it and she was there because of his prints.
      - Then he easily finds her...twice.
      - Just through looking at stories about Bane, figures out that someone who escaped should be Ra's Al Ghul's kid, he of course makes mistake here thinking that Bane is the one, but stories were saying that Bane was the one who escaped so he couldn't really know that.
      - Gets into freaking occupied city and no one notices him.
      - Specifically puts on plan that Catwoman would open up the roads in case, while Gordon would be handling a bomb and he himself creates a huge distraction in the form of an army...yes, the whole battle was just distraction. He knew that he wouldn't survive without Catwoman's intervention so that's why this plan was secondary.
      - Fixes autopilot thing that Fox himself couldn't fix and makes everyone think that he is dead so that Blake would continue his job, by that he practically turns symbol of Batman into something indestructible. Why you say? Batman is considered dead, but when Blake appears as Batman everyone would be twice as scared because criminals are superstitious lot, and they would think that Batman can't be killed. So he managed to both get a normal life and ensure that Gotham is safe by creating incredible myth.

      vbgggfff so true! I appreciate this movie more now than ever! I hated what happened with superhero movies shortly after the batman trilogy.

      If cross-cut the two X-men trilogys, like this: X1 + X2 + DOFP, than that is a close second amoung comicbook-trilogys.

      Nah the Raimi trilogy is literally up there with the Nolan trilogy. Both third installments were shaky compared to the previous installments but still honest works of art

      Duper Super I honeslty don’t get why people shit on Spider-Man trilogy! It’s phenomenal in its own way and paved the way for marvel movies that it is today! Just a bunch of fucking retards that can appreciate its art just because it’s not a comedy with lil cliches every damn 5 minutes!

    Me as Bruce when he says, "There's nothing out there for me." I'm afraid to have my heart broken.

    God Bruce is so depressed and Alfred is the only one that sees it and he makes the effort to help Bruce get better even when it meant having to leave him. To leave Bruce alone with the choices he made and to think about what his life was really worth and what he really wanted. Amazing relationship across 3 films

    If Alfred got his wish and Bruce never came back, the league of shadows would have destroyed the city in the first movie.

      betatalk357 Don't forget that what Batman does is illegal in and of itself so it would be hypocritical for him to allow no exceptions. The very fact that Selina is looking for the "clean slate" means she wants to stop her life of crime.

      @betatalk357 you are wrong, the end of the third part is very good and it is a great to this trilogy, do not be misrepresenting or putting what suits you, so that you did not see what it is really about
