Some small changes to Dark Knight Rises (Spoilers)

After coming back from the DKR a second time, I got to thinking. In my opinion, it was the best of the trilogy (although I can see why some would prefer the Dark Knight) and was, for me, almost perfect. But there were a couple things I thought should have been done differently. *SPOILERS AHOY* [quote]1: Miranda. The problem with her was that she just kind of dove in and out of the story, and the audience (or at least I didn't) get really attached to her or interested in her. If she had been more important and exposed in the story it might have made her revelation and betrayal as Talia more shocking. [/quote] [quote]2: In the Prison. I think Bruce should have been shown just constantly trying and failing to climb out instead of the three attempts. Makes it seem more desperate. Then, when he's finally about to give up the guy tells him about fear and doing it without the rope, and he succeeds.[/quote] [quote]3: Bane's death. C'mon, he was killed off way too casually. At the least, he shouldn't have just been blasted by Selina. An idea I kind of like is that Bane had a sort of unrequited love for Talia, and she abandons him to Batman and Catwoman to set off the bomb rather than save him. The betrayal makes him angry and he teams up with Batz to stop her, so you get Bane in one of the Tumblers, Catwoman on the Batpod and Batman in the Batwing all chasing down Talia's truck, and Bane dies by crashing into the truck to force it off the road. It just sounds a lot more badass and fitting for me. But that's just my opinion.[/quote] Yay, nay? What would the Flood change?

Batman was way more emotionally sucker-punched by that twist than I was. [quote]2: In the Prison.

Then, when he's finally about to give up the guy tells him about fear and doing it without the rope, and he succeeds.[/quote] The first time I watched it, I thought he was going to succeed after a couple (how many was it? I can't remember). One of the buildups was so ridiculously climactic, with the music and cinematography, I expected him to succeed, and it felt a little ridiculous when he didn't. [quote]3: Bane's death. C'mon, he was killed off way too casually. At the least, he shouldn't have just been blasted by Selina. An idea I kind of like is that Bane had a sort of unrequited love for Talia, and she abandons him to Batman and Catwoman to set off the bomb rather than save him.

It just sounds a lot more badass and fitting for me. But that's just my opinion.[/quote] I say no to the teaming up. Bane was always dedicated to fulfilling the League of Shadow's intentions, and he wouldn't have given that up just because of Talia's cruelty, which wasn't even delivered especially ruthless. She apologised to him, and he knew it was a sacrifice he had to make. And yes, I was pretty dumbstruck with how quickly he was killed, but that happens from time to time. Fiction isn't going to be as realistic if every character has a super dramatic and climactic death. This point also applies to Kat in Reach. [Edited on 08.09.2012 9:15 AM PDT]
