So let me get this straight...

So let me get this straight. Bruce and Selina sat around waiting for hours every day in every cafe in Florence in the hopes of seeing Alfred so that Bruce could nod at him?

I'm not going to lie, this made me kek

I'm more amused by the idea that the first thing Batman did when he got back to Gotham was spend hours making a giant batsignal out of flares on a building. For no reason.

>playing the Arkham games
>Batman always takes the time to apply the gel explosive in the shape of a bat

Leave it to Sup Forums to overthink tf outta tings
Just let it happen man

>DUDE JUST TURN OFF YOUR BRAIN LOL

Nolan's Batman is the most overrated series ever.

This movie is terrible. TERRIBLE.

This. They suck fuck.

Half of superheroics is style you plebs.

>For no reason.
If you think of the logistics it is kinda dumb to waste so much time doing it, but saying it was for no reason is just stupid.

And the OP scene felt like a studio push. It really felt completely tacked on at the end.

Well maybe its a good fucking restaurant, ever think of that?

>Not constantly monitoring the status of Alfred in case he ran into health trouble
>implying he didn't know Alfred was in the city

You could say he had a lot of prep-time

but they weren't waiting around at the cafe for Alfred, they just happened to be at a cafe at a time when Alfred happened to be out in the street. not that big of a deal u dork

Poor decrepit Alfred is just seeing things

This.

Nope Bruce Died. The ending was the vision of what alfred wanted to see. Ita verison of a desperate mind.

Or more likely the former Superdetective with his vast fortune and nothing but time on his hands tracked down an old man who wasn't hiding from anyone, determined his favorite cafe, and then one day sat across from him and nodded at him because he knew it'd give him peace of mind.
More like underthink things.

This.

It's even foreshadowed. Alfred tells Bruce how much he likes to imagine that he managed to live a normal life and how proud of him he'd be.

So many scenes I hate in this series

>I can't commit capital punishment
>But I can sure as hell murder dozens of my ninja bros
>Swat guys? no problem
>A dog? SAVE ME ALFRED
>That whole retarded truck chase
>Nolan thinking that just because a character isn't on screen, the other characters can't see him
>Which leads to many instances of characters being surprised by another even though the character was right in front of them the whole time
Nolan is the only director I've noticed doing this and he does it so fucking much
>That fucking scene where Two Face can't tell it's the Joker in a nurse outfit until the joker moves his stupid mouth cover GODAMN FUCKING HACK RETARD
>Bane is a big guy
>No one could tell when he had his head covered
>Takes the head cover off, suddenly gains a few inches of height and pounds of muscle

>Sup Forums
You should know by now there is no Sup Forums

gets me every time lol

Man the ending would have been PERFECT if they had removed the Bruce and Selina shot, and just showed Alfred nodding.

Indeed ot would. Even the music fits it better that way.

>Alfred looks at camera
>Hans Zimmer drums start
>Bat symbol and movie title with that Hans Zimmer horns followed by sudden silence

>youtube.com/watch?v=LYj4Aq5fdjk#t=4m20s
Perfection.

the memes about this scene were very funny.

>Come on Bruce! We finally have freedom, lets go out and explore and live our life to the fullest!
>No Selina, I need to go to that cafe and see if my butler is there. He might not even be able to go because hes unemployed now, but what if he is there!
>Bruce please...
>Think about it Selina, Ill share a look and then disappear mysteriously.

Of course.
You think Bruce, even on vacation and faking his death, would do stupid preptime things like this all the time.

Not if you quickfire it in combat.

BRAVO NOLAN I LOVE YOU

>selina literally shits herself
>you share a board with people that find this funny

TDKR's script is fucking atrocious. Plot hole after plot hole after plot hole, and really poorly resolved villains. Only decent bit is when Bruce Wayne is in that prison, everything before and after that is a mess.

to be fair he looked a bit out of it there, probably wasn't paying close attention

>World's greatest psychopa- I mean detective
>Not keeping an eye on literally everyone at all times

The fucker probably built a god damn new cave somewhere

>waiting for hours every day in every cafe in Florence in the hopes of seeing Alfred

I thought he described where the cafe was

Besides how hard would it be for him to find out when Alfred arrives in Florence

Its almost as silly as a guy dressed as bat executing acts of vigilantism

Nah it'd be shat on as Nolan trying to do Inception's ending again. And it'd be a shitty copout.

Hey man, half of Batman is theatrics, it makes perfect sense. The fear of the bat probably stops more crime than the bat actually does.

>Bruce and Selina sat around waiting for hours every day in every cafe in Florence in the hopes of seeing Alfred so that Bruce could nod at him?
No, he escaped to Florence and is enjoying life. Part of enjoying life involves going to cafes for both Alfred and Bruce, and on one of many trips for the both of them they saw each other.

>tf
Who tf says tf on Sup Forums unless they're talking about Twisted Fate.

So did Alfred also imagine Lucius Fox asking 'Now who fixed the autopilot?'?

Maybe by you but the critics would have loved it.

Yeah, that's what makes it Super. If they had no class they would just be heroes

Why doesn't someone make an edit of it? That doesn't sound too hard to make. Although you'd have to cut out the last part with Robin which is a shame because it's a dark knight rising.

In what way? Ambiguity works in Inception because it goes with the theme of the movie. Here you are just avoiding a clear ending so you can have the best of both worlds i.e. have Bruce die heroically in a blaze of glory or pulling a prep time yet again to live happily ever after.

Yeah I like Begins and TDK but Rises is hilarious. It's like Nolan just gave up

Only children talk about "sharing a board" as if a board is something they have ownership over.

Well, I don't think he actually intended to make TDKR at first. He planned to stop with TDK but it was the biggest success ever so they dragged him back into doing a sequel.

Also, fun fact: Hothead guy is Joker from Full Metal Jacket.

>former Superdetective
What? Wrong Batman
>vast fortune
Wouldn't he be legally dead? No Wayne money

What am I looking at?

Batman still did detective work in the Nolan flicks.
He's not the same as other Batmans but definitely good enough to find Alfred.
>Legally Dead
Oh yeah, I'm sure he just left every penny to charity, his superthief gf is totally going dutch too.

>Oh yeah, I'm sure he just left every penny to charity, his superthief gf is totally going dutch too.
I mean, the ending was super unclear but I thought it was implied that everything goes to Joseph Gordon Levitt.

>Posting the ending of the theatrical version and not the special edition

>didn't even say hi

y tho

aren't they friends

the guy who was shooting and was basically the worst member of the GCPD in DKR lying dead at the end

Formerly Sneed's.

I'm sure someone else has said this, but you really think freaking Batman and Catwoman didn't keep tabs on Alfred so they could be there when he was?

He died, that's not actually happening.

He kept an eye on Alfred to learn his routine. When Alfred left to go to the café again, Bruce beat him there.

Batman probably beat up a bunch of criminals and instructed them to paint a Bat symbol on a building with gasoline.

It's not meant to be an ambiguous ending. What you see is what you get. Wayne survived.

Otherwise, there would be no point to having Fox go "wow, somebody got the autopilot to work, after all!" or to having Gordon find that an anonymous benefactor had the Bat Signal fixed.

Scene would have been twenty times better if Alfred just nodded to someone offscreen in the cafe.
Showing Bruce was a weak move for Nolan, undoubtably

Whatever idea he had for the 3rd one died with Heath Ledger.

Yeah OP it's called... "prep time"... That's what he's super good at!

I like that explanation of it too. Maybe it's just Aflred imaging things.

Gee OP, it's almost like these movies are bad or something.

>>Bane is a big guy
>>No one could tell when he had his head covered
>>Takes the head cover off, suddenly gains a few inches of height and pounds of muscle

Chalk this one up to the fact that it wasn't Tom Hardy under the hood. Actors love doing as little as fucking possible. It gets on my nerves in movies because a lot of times, especially on a rewatch you can see the moments they switch from stunt doubles or stand ins to the actual actor. Like looking at the back of their head and gain or lose a couple inches when the cameras movie.

The best actors are the ones who play the character as much as possible. The worst are the ones who show up when it's time for a close up of their face. *cough*TomHolland*cough*

>Come on Bat! We finally have freedom, lets go out and explore and live our life to the fullest!
>No Cat, I need to go to that cafe and see if my butler is there. He might not even be able to go because hes unemployed now, but what if he is there!
>Bat please...
>Think about it Cat, Ill share a look and then disappear mysteriously.

t. Tom King.

So you tell me Dubs Guy was Batman all along?

Was this actually in the movie?

No, the gif left out the part where it cuts to Talia saying"shoot them all"

Get this hothead outta here.

Honest to god I keep mistaking this screencap for the date scene in American Psycho.

Or... and stay with me here, 'cause this is crazy... Alfred mentioned the specific cafe he went to. Bruce who probably isn't without means or money even after TDKR, went to the extraordinary trouble of saying to the cafe's owner "hey, here's some money. Call me at this number if this guy ever shows up and you can have some more money".
>call comes in
>Bruce and Selina travel to cafe, because Alfred said he went there more than once
>wait for Alfred, see him and give him the peace of mind he needs, that Bruce is alive and has moved on with his life

It doesn't really require that much effort.

Or he could have just called Alfred and told him he was okay.

I mean the guy is probably his closest friend, he shouldn't have to go to such ridiculous lengths to give him peace of mind. What if Alfred NEVER went there? Then he would have died thinking Bruce was killed by the nuke, having.never lived a normal life.

Because Alfred told him that seeing him in the cafe and knowing he was okay was a little daydream/fantasy of his. Calling him and telling him he was okay is one method, but Alfred himself described that he hoped to encounter Bruce in those circumstances to know everything was okay. Alfred himself even says that in this scenario, the two of them never spoke. It was enough that he saw Bruce and knew he was well.

And again, "call me when this man shows up" is not really ridiculous lengths. You could get even crazier and say Bruce convinced Selina to spend a summer in Florence, just to make sure they wouldn't miss Alfred's visit.

>What if Alfred NEVER went there?
Presumably, Bruce would have gotten in touch with him, but Alfred was the one that told the story about visiting Florence every year, going to a cafe and hoping just to see Bruce and know he was fine. Bruce was literally fulfilling Alfred's self-described fondest wish for him.

That was Alfred's dream sequence, Bruce is dead obviously.

Leave me twisted fate alone

Megamind pls

Which is why he imagined him with Seline, a random thief who he saw exactly once as she kicked his ass and took his mother's pearls, some of his most prized possessions, and not say Rachel who he was dearly in love with and Alfred knew how much she meant to him before he died. Or Talia, who he also knew Bruce liked.

Selina breaks this idea because Alfred has zero reasons to associate her with Bruce, let alone in a happy situation.

That half makes sense. Certainly it's something Bruce would do, I'm just not sure why Selina would go along with it

Why does Sup Forums think that overrated mean that something is terrible? Are you only capable of thinking in binaries?

Are you dumb?
Like, are you a dumb person typically?

1. Credit cards exist. They track what you buy and when, down to the minute. This data tells Bruce (who is batman and could get that data) exactly when Alfred likes to fly in, what hotel he checks into, and when he pays for his meal at a specific Cafe in relation to when he checks in. Maybe the next morning, maybe after flying in. Whatever, the data is there. A booking agent might have the info in a database. Whatever.

1a. Batman is the world's greatest detective. He'll hack whatever to get the data from all of the hotels in Florence, or steal their fucking sign in books and look for Alfred's name in a sea of fucking tomes. He will find it.

2. Alfred is old. Old people do repeat shit. If Alfred has went to Florence multiple times he has found his favorite airline, favorite hotel, favorite cafe, favorite meal / coffee and favorite time of day to do it. When he goes back to Florence he's going to do all of this shit again within the fucking hour of when he did it all of those years ago.

3. So Batman has a script that alerts him when Alfred books a flight and bam. You know the exact hotel he'll be at and when.

4. Old people go on vacation for like... 3 weeks. He'll go to the same cafe multiple times. Even if Batman didn't know what cafe it was, which he might be able to get from credit card info, he'd have the chance to simply follow him from the hotel or ask the front desk what they recommend to everyone as a really classy, quiet place.

It's completely doable and doesn't require sitting at multiple cafes for hours at a time.

I like this version. Bruce giving Alfred a parting gift.

The point is he could have just called him and hung out with him a few times my autistic friend

But he didn't want to do that, he wanted a poetic end to their relationship like he already told him he wanted the year prior.

And it's the best part.

Is he autistic? Who the fuck does something like that?

I've noticed Sup Forums is a very angry board in general so that probably has a lot to do with it.

Who dresses up like a bat to fight crime?

No. Hes Batman. He keeps tabs on him, which isnt that hard since he kinda KNOWS the guy

Good point. At least it's not a scorpion jacket.

Bat.

you say that like going to a certain cafe every day is unusual

Holy unsatisfying ending!

>Holy shit, Batman!
I feel like if there were a real Robin in Nolan's movies he wouldn't beat around the bush.

lotta loyalty

George

That's the look of a man who has lost everything in his life. Maybe he's just seeing what he wants to see, his "son" being alive and well.

But yeah, no, these movies all suck. Begins is complete trash. Dark Knight is acceptable. Rises is really just good for the opening.

>guys did you like the plane scene? i sure love the plane scene. haha, memes.

The meme is actually funny and I have no problem admitting it. But the movie as a whole is terrible.
