You know, I've got to bring up a gripe about TDKR.
Wasn't the whole concept of The League of SHADOWS to be kind of ya know, behind the scenes? Sacking Rome, burning London, cleansing Europe with The Plague...all behind the scenes stuff. Sort of like gotham just having a mass riot and killing half the town would have been in Batman Begins.
Does it make sense that they would just show themselves to the world and commit the most high profile terrorist act in history instead of acting more subversively like they had been for thousands of years?
Batman died at the end of TDK when he fell from the building killing harvy and scary face. The third movie was a close to death experience inside the mind of Bruce Wayne as he fell. The bomb and the white light were him hitting the ground and dying. The scene at the end is him in heaven. The entire movie is an analogy of the battle in his psyche for dying as Bruce Wayne or batman. In the end he leaves the city with a symbol but give it up entirely and dies as Bruce.
Thinking of it that way makes the third movie bearable.

i would say yes to all this when Ra's was running it. then he was killed and his emotional daughter took over and said frick it all for revenge. leave it to a woman to ruin a good thing amirite?

Nope. League of Shadows never did any of that. See above post

This before or after they publicly crashed and burned Wayne Manor in Batman Begins?

The Los and RA confront him while people are still at the party.

Half the entire league is there attacking him at once, they approach him and start talking to him in public. They burn the place down with onlookers mere feet away.
That doesn't strike me as a move made by a SUPER secret organization that has gone untraced and untracked for a thousand years.

most of what you said was an assumption. the fire wasnt started in front of anyone. same for the attack. Ra's approaches him, bruce makes everyone leave, then the attack begins.
how would the paper believe bruce burned the house down if so many "on lookers" were still there

I can't tell if you are pointing out ANOTHER plot hole or arguing your case

i dont think you remember the sequence of events. ras does not attack until the house is empty.

It doesn't really matter because regardless of who he became, he wouldn't have lasted a year running around trying to stop gangs of thugs, let alone criminals like the Joker or Bane. Bruce was able to take them on because he was trained extensively by the League of Assassins. But that Robin was just some disillusioned cop whose only training was at the local police academy. He would've been in a morgue within a year.

half the league? it was like 10 people max.
Bruce kicks them all out with his speech then, after everyone is gone, they burn it down.
I don't even know why I bother explaining this to you since you just troll and act like an idiot in every post you make.

Yeah, Bruce left him a Sweating to the League of Assassins video. He would've been ready to take on the whole Gotham underworld then.
