Continuity with the first two films (Innocence and children)
Yup, all connects, good call. Awesome thing I just noticed, so Bane was born in darkness and never knew anything else, to the point that by the time he saw the light, it was nothing but blinding. While Bruce was born in the light and always had one foot in it, he fell apart post TDK, and he became ...

Continuity with the first two films (Innocence and children)
"Oh, you think darkness is your ally. But you merely adopted the dark; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't see the light until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but BLINDING!" Bane had been born in "darkness", and therefore Raz could take advantage of him. Bane had succumbed t...

Continuity with the first two films (Innocence and children)
We all know obviously how the plot is literally connected to the first two films, the first film in spirit and function, the second film in constant referencing of what happened in it, but seeing the movie in IMAX one last time it dawned on me how thorough the film connected to the first two themati...

The themes of THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
First let me say, awesome thread. Usually the substantial threads are spread out and it takes too long to dig to find them, it was nice to read through this entire thread knowing every post was gonna have a point. I think the easiest place to start in terms of the theme is the title, rising. All of ...

How does Saito know that Inception worked?
There was no call to be made! Cobb always could go home, but going home would be facing the reality of what's happened. So he ran to the dream world, and defined going back to his kids as returning to reality, heance the intensity of the seeing their faces stuff... Cobb is lost, that's the key. His...

It was ALL a dream, ALL, but Cobb does get back to reality.
This entire film takes place Ina dream world, the one Cobb and mal built together, and the one Cobb can't leave until he lets go of Mal. Every last moment except maybe meeting miles in France is a dream, but that doesn't mean it's all not very real. Just consider the films very existence as the drea...

Top vs. Ring: Theories About the End
"Why is it so important for YOU to dream" "in my dreams were still together" This exchange explains it all, both because it lays out the rings relevance but clearly defines dream in his case as its his dream, he's the mind of that dream, so even though are countless dreams throughout the film they c...

Memento Mori Chronology (the true story of Memento)
The code has finally been cracked. In Memento Mori Chronology the true chronological story of Memento is explained (http://sdrv.ms/LX1dmO). It is a 59 page document (and an appendix with ‘goofs’) in which the whole movie is first deconstructed and then reconstructed, resulting in one chronological ...

Nolan Beliefs ?
dustbin, Couldn't resist. Good stuff. No double posting. Bump. If you ever need a bump, pm me. It's not a religious series, it's a film about the deliberate creation of religion by humans. Yes. Pretty much. Though I see it as more agnostic and scientific than atheistic and scientific, but maybe tha...
