Last month, we reported that the runtime for The Dark Knight Rises was 2 hours and 45 minutes. The British Board of Film Classification has now confirmed this runtime, or rather, it's made it even more precise. That means every time Nolan does a new Batman movie, it's 12 minutes longer than the previous entry.
Answer: absolutely nothing. Hit the jump for a recap of our previous coverage. The Dark Knight Rises opens July 20th. Warner Bros. It has been eight years since Batman vanished into the night, turning, in that instant, from hero to fugitive. Bruce Wayne has locked himself inside Wayne Manor for the past eight years since he retired as Batman. Wayne Enterprises is crumbling after he invested in a clean energy project designed to harness fusion power, but shut the project down after learning that the core could be modified to become a nuclear weapon.
Both Gordon and Blake — who has deduced Batman's identity — implore Bruce to return as Batman, but Alfred resigns in a failed attempt to dissuade him. Bane stages an attack on the Gotham Stock Exchange and uses a stolen set of Bruce's fingerprints to place a number of risky investments in his name, bankrupting Bruce and forcing him to relinquish control of Wayne Enterprises.
Correctly suspecting that his business rival, John Daggett , has employed Bane to aid in an aggressive take-over of the company, Bruce entrusts businesswoman Miranda Tate to keep full control out of Daggett's hands. Following a trail left by cat burglar Selina Kyle , Batman confronts Bane in the sewers, who says that he is there to fulfill Ra's al Ghul 's destiny.
He reveals that he was using Daggett's construction firms to stage a heist on Wayne Enterprises' Applied Science Division. He steals Batman's arsenal before crippling him by slipping one of his spinal discs and sending him to an ancient prison, the Pit , from which escape is virtually impossible. The other inmates relate the story of the only person to ever successfully escape from the prison, a child driven by necessity and the sheer force of will, said to be the child of Ra's al Ghul.
Bane lures the vast majority of Gotham's police force underground and sets off a chain of explosions across the city, trapping the officers and turning Gotham City into an isolated city-state. Any attempt to leave the city will result in the detonation of a nuclear bomb, that was once the Wayne Enterprises fusion reactor converted by Pavel.
Addressing the citizens, Bane executes Pavel at a football field, reveals the cover-up of Dent's death outside Gotham City Hall, and releases the prisoners locked up under the Dent Act. The rich and powerful are dragged from their homes and put before a show trial presided over by Jonathan Crane. After an attempt to sneak Special Forces soldiers into the city fails, the government blockades Gotham and the city further regresses into a state of anarchy.
Meanwhile, Bruce trains himself for five months, recovering from the injuries Bane inflicted upon him, and successfully escapes Bane's prison to return to Gotham. On the last day before the nuclear bomb is to explode, he enlists Selina, Blake, Miranda, Gordon and Lucius Fox to help liberate the city and stop the nuclear bomb before it grows too unstable and explodes.
Batman confronts and subdues Bane, but is stabbed by Miranda as she reveals herself to be Talia al Ghul, Bane's friend whom he protected as a child and helped to escape the prison.
She plans to complete her father's work by destroying Gotham and exact personal vengeance against Bruce for his death. Gordon successfully cuts off the bomb's ability to be remotely detonated while Selina kills Bane, allowing Batman to chase Talia.
He tries to force her to take the bomb to the fusion chamber where it can be stabilized, but she remotely floods the chamber. Batman shoots her truck off the road and Talia dies in the resulting crash, confident that the bomb cannot be stopped. Using the Bat developed by Lucius, Batman hauls the bomb beyond the city limits, where it detonates over the ocean. In the aftermath of the explosion, Batman is praised as a sacrificial hero and Bruce is believed dead as a casualty of the riot.
Later Lucius finds out that Bruce had fixed the autopilot on the Bat 6 months ago, hinting that Batman wasn't inside the Bat when it exploded with the bomb. As Bruce's estate is divided up, Alfred attends his annual vacation and witnesses Bruce and Selina together alive in a cafe in Italy, while Blake inherits the Batcave. Warner Bros. Nolan wanted the story for the third installment to keep him emotionally invested.
