Bruce Wayne in Batman 3 movie

We searched around the web yesterday. We discovered additional news on The Dark Knight Rises. On our web journey, we found a new Batman toy.

A few hours after finding this Batman toy, another commenter mentioned the toy as proof that Bruce Wayne survived the atomic blast.

Check out the following link to see the new toy. What do you think? Is this new Batman toy an explanation? We still believe Bruce Wayne remained in the Batwing up until his fateful end.

Would Christopher Nolan end a Batman movie on...?



***Movie Spoiler***



Would Christopher Nolan end a Batman movie on a dream? The more we reflect back on the new Batman movie, the more we think about the Nolan brothers pounding away at the clues. Did we need to hear the mechanic telling Fox that Bruce Wayne repaired the autopilot 6 months ago? Gordon discovering the Bat signal repaired? The pearl necklace missing from the Wayne estate? John Blake retrieving a bag prepared for him?

Christopher Nolan and Jonathan Nolan are clever screenwriters. They know how to encode messages through serving up crafty dialogue and showing powerful visuals. Why did the Nolan brothers emphasize on multiple clues? It is confusing to think the writers need to reveal the autopilot, pearl necklace, Bat signal, bag and John Blake's real name (Robin) to get their point across.

However, cranking out the clues is not the end of the trickery. We see Alfred at an Italian cafe. He acknowledges Bruce at a distant table. Selina is sitting across Bruce, wearing the exact pearl necklace that is missing from the Wayne Estate. Really? Do we need multiple clues to understand the obvious? The cafe scene is unnecessary unless it is intended as a trick to make you think Bruce is alive.

Showing these multiple clues in sequential order confirm the Nolan brothers are tricking most moviegoers into thinking the facts are there to prove Bruce Wayne is alive. Why not look at the Alfred cafe scene as a personal imagination, fantasy, hallucination, and even a dream? Bruce Wayne hallucinated in the pit. Alfred shared his cafe story with Bruce. It leaves the door open to enter another hallucination into plot. Does Christopher Nolan write simple scripts to explain everything to us? No.

The Dark Knight Rises is the last film of the Batman trilogy. Why can't the Batman movie feature an imagination? We already witnessed a hallucination and a fantasy. Adding a dream into the mix is plausible. Really think about the clues. Are you convinced that moviegoers require this many clues? Better yet, the multiple clues lead up to a cafe scene with Bruce sitting across Alfred. Cliche? Predictable? Brilliant?

The Nolan brothers are serving up the clues on purpose to make you think. The cafe ending scene is more than just an obvious confirmation to alert us that Bruce Wayne is alive because we see Selina with the pearl necklace sitting next to him. Even so, we debate that people think it is impossible for Alfred to dream about a woman he knows nothing about.

Are you convinced we can't dream about another person? If we dream about a person we never met, then it is deemed reality? Alfred probably crossed paths with Selina. He knows the pearl necklace went missing. Should the film play out like a fairy tale? The Dark Knight saves Gotham City. He is rewarded with a new life and his dream girl. That seems like a fantasy to me, especially since Alfred shares the cafe story - in the turning point - to convince Bruce he must give up on Batman to find happiness.

Commenters on this website are intelligent. Do you need the extra clues put in your face to make a decision that a person is alive? We mentioned this Batman movie is about fate, hope and fear. Are the Nolan brothers giving us hope that Bruce is alive? Revealing clue after clue to reach a conclusion in a cafe is too obvious.

You be the judge. Is Bruce Wayne dead or alive? Would Christopher Nolan, a complex mind, end a Batman movie on a dream? Feel free to chat about the topic.
