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?

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Darkslayer18264 [quote]1: Miranda.[/quote][/quote] I agree. One of the flaws of the movie is that they had a few too many characters, and thus, not enough time to get to know them. But considering how many characters there were, it was handled extremely well, and wasn't that big of a problem. [quote][quote]2: In the Prison.[/quote][/quote] The issue with this is that Bruce just had his back broken, and he had to recover, so they had to show him training, and getting better. Not to mention that just because they didn't show it, doesn't mean he didn't try other times. [quote][quote]3: Bane's death. [/quote][/quote] I was actually okay with it. His death fits with the rest of the movie. What do I mean? Well take for example the first time we see Batman (about 45 minutes into the movie). This is the first time we see him, but also the first time he comes out after 8 years. Nolan, instead of doing the classic "hero shot**" what do we see? The camera just shows Batman on his bike with the EMP gun. Nolan doesn't make a big deal out of these sorts of things, and thus, they leave even more of an impact (for me at least). When the camera showed Batman, I was super excited, more so than if they had made a huge deal about his return. Although I do agree that the 10 seconds spent on the villains death was not enough. **In action-adventure movies, the hero shot is usually either the first appearance of the hero or early in the film, when, using dramatic cinematography, the hero is shown front and center in full costume. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] AudaciousZealot The only villain in the trilogy to defeat Batman in hand-to-hand combat definitely deserved a better death (or defeat). The way he was blasted and forgotten was incredibly anti-climactic for his character.[/quote] I agree. Although if you think about it, they already showed his defeat, when Batman punched the living -blam!- out of him and ripped his mask apart. Getting hit by a 40mm cannon was just a formality.
