TDKR 2nd Viewing Observations

Obviously this has been discussed ad nauseam here but I enjoyed it more the 2nd time around. Just a few quick points.
- I thought the end was great with John Blake finding the batman cave then with the end him actually "rising" on the platform. Thought that played well symbolically even if it wasn't the main connotation.
- Also, of course Batman didn't die but he pretty much lied to everyone about fixing the auto pilot throughout the film. I understand its a plot device but at the point he lied, there really wasn't a point to. Just strange.
- The douchebag cop Quinn from Dexter that can't stop tripping over his own feet played the douchebag cop that blew the bridge thought that was funny. Still screwing things up.
- Selina Kyle was a lesbian. Well, maybe now bisexual once Bruce converted her. She had weird sexual chemistry with her gal pal that lived with her.
- When Bruce Wayne fails twice to climb the bit, the pure force of the fall would snap his vetabrae in half. The first guy they showed do it died as he stopped moving and just dangled. That was weird they couldn't build a better harness.

The only thing worse than a sucky movie is seeing a sucky movie twice

I thought it was a good movie with flashes of a great movie throughout. The first 2/3 was excellent but it kind of falls apart in the third act a bit.
I thought the reveal of Cotillard's character as the real "big bad" was the worst-kept secret ever. Bane's death was incredibly too anti-climactic for such a build-up throughout. I felt the ending was a little too by-the-book for an ending to a great trilogy.
I think the scene at the end with Alfred in Italy might have played better not actually showing Bruce but having the camera linger on Alfred's look and smile leaving the implication that Bruce might be alive. But that might have been too "Inception-like". Just a personal preference though.
Again, I enjoyed it, but I felt there was so much more that Nolan could have done with the story.

Is there some movie board rule that if you watch this movie twice you have to make a thread with the same observations everyone made the first time?

Holy shite enough!! TDKR wasn't the greatest movie ever made for gods sake. It was good and I'll grant you that, but the plot holes kept it from being a great movie.

Still think it would've been better of the movie was split into two parts.
Also, the Dagget character should've been Earle from Batman Begins.

It was ok

I saw it twice in theaters and the amount of plot holes and just shitty writing overall kept me from enjoying it as much as I should have.
I loved BB, thought the dark knight tried to do too much, and TDKR confirmed my belief that Nolan tried to put too much into the last 2 movies
