1) Yes, I watch them. And no, it's not wrong, Nolan's movies are way too realistic, the Joker is a guy with make up, Bane doesn't use Venom, Catwoman barely looks like Catwoman. I can see how Marvel Studios can make their movies realistic without taking away everything they should share with the comics, they have aliens, and Gods ("aliens" too) and managed to bring a comic-y costume such as Cap's to the screen, and it looked pretty cool... most of the time.

Again, I'm not saying they're bad. I'm saying Nolan didn't need to turn Batman into almost a polic/detective thriller. I can't understand what would've been the problem to have a Venom-powered Bane, even if his performance is excellet, outstanding, 5/5... that doesn't quite look like Bane. More like a political speaker with a mask. Bane is big, not Hulk-big, but "BIG!".

2) No, never read 'em, sorry.

3) "He's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now." Now I remembered that... you're right, I forgot that speech was kinda what explained his retirement.

4) I was talking about the entire triology, I still feel like TDKR doesn't have enough Batman. And it couldn't be about fighting crime (until half the movie) because there wasn't crime. And particulary, that Bruce Wayne appears, doesn't mean they're focusing in "the human behind the mask", mainly becuase in that moment, there was no mask to be behind.

5) The same happened to me with Thanos, I heard Thanos was going to appear, I published in my blog. But the way he appeared was unexpected, it was like "Oh... so there's no Tha... Hollysh*the'srighttheredoinganevilsmile!". Also, I felt that the character of "Miranda" was way to important to be just a supporting character. I'm not only taking about me, but in general, it was almost useless to make Bane look like THE villain, who was in control of the whole situation, and then he's revealed to be a guy in the friend-zone who does it for love, and it's just muscles rather than the brain we was made to look like before.

About the moment of get squashed, in the whole movie Batman is that way! In this kind of movies we expect the main character to prevail as the victor because he deserves it, not to die. That's the sweet moment of the packback, when Batman started owning Bane, but then... all the hype you had is crushed when Batman is lef there to be saved by his sidekick. They could've made the reveal different, maybe Batman heard Miranda enter the Hall and it was all revealed, not to be stabbed like a supporting character.

And it's unknown if he died or not, in interviews, the creators of the movie contradicted themselves saying "Yes, he survived" and "No, he died, that scene was the way to see how Alfred was trying to overcome the death of Bruce" (the last one said by Michael Caine in an interview I read in ComicBookMovie.com)

7) In my opinion, it was. Not far-far, but far.

8) That's the exact same thing I'm saying! But it doesn't justify that the movie was disappointing.

And about that point "he rises", yes he does. And this is one of the things that bothered me the most. He rises, he's standing triumphant against Bane, giving him a taste of his own medicine, and then he "falls" again when he's stabbed and left to be rescued by Catwoman. "Yay for the hero of Gotham! He needs to be saved by the sidekick after rising!" It ruins the climax, for me.

10) But there are some "plot holes for the sake of the plot" but also "unnecesary plot holes". Most of them explained in Honest Trailers' video, although there are some things I don't share with that video (only a feeeew).
