1) Yeah, well I'm glad we sorted that one out. I love Nolan's Batman. You don't.

5) No matter how you're talking about payback, payback is payback. It's not good. So, no, I don't think Batman went to go get payback. On the most basic level, vengeance is a villain's motivation. Justice is a hero's. You're right in saying that a "Hell yeah!" moment doesn't need to be reflexive and intellectual. I love a good straight-out, no-complications "Hell yeah!". But sometimes, it is intellectual. Sometimes, it's complicated, and I think that's my favourite kind. The "Hell yeah!" you're describing (with the example of defeating Bane) isn't a true "Hell yeah!". It's one derived from payback, which isn't good. Therefore, the true "Hell yeah!" is one derived from justice. Setting things right. Saving Gotham. Defeating Bane and Talia was necessary in order to do so, but the "Hell yeah!" doesn't come from evil (payback), it comes from good (justice). I'll leave that point there because I found it hard to understand a lot of what you were trying say, and I realise that what I'm saying probably sounds pretentious and wishy-washy, but tell me it's not true.

And the Schrodinger thing is kinda cool.

11) Man, I love that you keep referencing things that I love. Chuck Testa. So good...

Anyway, didn't we already establish that the idea that Bane had no input to the overall strategy was entirely speculative, and illogical, seeing as he was so intelligent throughout the entirety of the film? As I said, I didn't think that the twist lessened Bane's brilliance. It only added to the brilliance of the movie. If it's any consolation, I don't understand how you think the reveal turned Bane into just a thug.
